Order yours Nashville Hot — with popcorn chicken, slaw, pickles and spicy oil — when you're feeling extra.

At this poutinerie, with locations in Chinatown, on King West, and more, there's no limit to how poutine can be dressed. From butter chicken and Buffalo cauli-ranch to perogies, Korean Bbq and popcorn chicken, the chain's culinary mash-ups know no bounds. Purists will also find traditional — veggie or non — poutine, built on fries or tots.
