“Leslie's (located at 661 Notre Dame) had the best gravy, best curds and the fries were a very close second,” Devyn Courvoisier, poutine expert and systems administrator at Northern Life, said. “ It was very close, but I would say their curds were my turning point.”
Following close behind Leslie's was GP Poutine at the corner of Main and Errington in Chelmsford — a mere three points separated the two. The winner of the value category, served on the what the judges unanimously called the best fries of the day, GP offered up a tasty second.
Next on the scorecard came Poutine Palace, located on Lorne Street. The chipstand offered a unique gravy, creamier than the rest, as well as top-notch service.
Rounding out the top five were Vespa Street Kitchen on Riverside Drive, which provided a more upscale rendition of the classic, then Poutine Express on Douglas, which offered the squeakiest of all the curds — which earned the judges stamp of approval.

I would never go to Vespa, that place smells and tastes like what they serve....canned food. Canned mushrooms, canned tomatoes,... . I don't know but that place has left a gross taste in my mouth as if they tried to empty a can of mushroom, sprinkle some basil on it and call it a mushroom salad. I don't understand why people like it so much.
