Mexican Poutine at the Crack Shack in Encinitas

The food looks good but the name of the restaurant, Crack Shack, sounds quite scary!

Just recently returned from a trip to Canada, where I Had my first poutine experience. Reviews at the table were pretty mixed but I would say it was not too bad.

Haha. Fantastic question! We were in a small town in central Saskatchewan and every restaurant is owned by an Asian family. It’s sort of strange but I guess it is no different then Albanian families owning restaurants in Illinois.

i’ve always been really intrigued by poutine because it makes no sense, yet people love it. i don’t know why expected it to be anything other than it was lol

The poutine at Costco cafeteria might be the best 2500 calorie gut bomb I've ever had. Hard to think of a better way to spend $4

Just some fried onions on top. The dish was delicious. Meat, curds, fries and gravy.

I am so mixed on the Poutine+ concept.

Obviously game for it, but I'm always most fond of just the three basic elements haha

I accept the challenge.

tasted great but portions for 8 bucks definitely let me down. I don’t even feel mildly guilty right now hahaha

That looks delicious.
But yeah you need 2-3 of those
