Monique’s Chip Stand

THE BURGER:

The burger had a 1/4lb charbroiled party topped with a slice of processed cheese. The vegetables were fresh. Everything was on a smaller, plain burger bun that seemed like it could have used more toasting.

Burger Rating: 7.7/10

THE POUTINE:

The poutine was made with skinless hand-cut fries. They were well cooked but they left an oily film in my mouth. The gravy was a pretty standard gravy. I requested mixed cheese (combination of curds and shredded), of which there was just enough.

Poutine Rating: 8.4/10

Overall, this was ok, but the fries leaving that oily film just bugged me a little bit. It was still better than a lot of chip stands/huts/trucks. It was just not up to the level of the other two better known chip stands in town.

Monique’s Cgip Stand is located at 276 Nipissing Street in Sturgeon Falls.
