what the eff is a poutine? are you stopping by the strip club? do they serve hot dogs there instead of lamb chops?

edit: just looked it up. le french version of the chili cheese fries.

The1 · 07-07-2011, 07:59 PM

according to Wiki

-Poutine is a diner staple that originated in Quebec and can now be found across Canada. It is sold by national fast food chains, in small "greasy spoon" type diners (commonly known as "cantines" or "casse-croûtes" in Quebec) and pubs, as well as by roadside chip wagons (commonly known as "Cabanes à Patates", literally meaning "Potato Shack"). International chains like McDonald's,[2] A&W,[3] KFC and Burger King[4] also sell mass-produced poutine in Canada-

so this is my patriotic dinner

The1 · 07-07-2011, 08:00 PM

Roy's in Chicago makes a pineapple martini that is stone dangerous. So easy to drink, but more than two will have you staggering. Great food there, too.

If i get to Chicago anytime soon, i'll have to check it out.

I'm not a big drinker, so one should be good

rodi · 07-07-2011, 08:57 PM

I'll be in Chicago in a month, I'll check it out.

TBH this is a combination of two seperate shots "photomerged" with CS4. This is due to me taking the shots with "spot" metering on and having to compensate afterwards. I had to add exposure separately to the two shots to get the correct exposure on the foreground/tower and the the sky in my second shot....photomerge and voila! On vacation about 3 weeks: Germany, Georgia, SC, Florida, Dominican Republic and back again.
