Well the dust has settled, the gravy boats have run dry, and Nelson’s annual poutine extravaganza, the 14 Days of Poutine, has come to a delicious end!
From April 22nd to May 5th, restaurants across the city battled it out for poutine supremacy, vying for the coveted titles of Best Tasting, Most Unique, and Best Presentation.
We had some truly tasty poutines this year, with impressive offerings all across the city (and beyond). But only a few could reign supreme. So, drumroll please…
