Perfectly timed for all the carb cravings caused by winter in Canada, the great French-Canadian classic is cause for celebration when La Poutine Week kicks off in Calgary and Edmonton the first week of February.

Among the participating restaurants already confirmed for the week-long celebration of fries, curds and gravy are:

The dining public will have a chance to eat and vote on their favourites before a winner is announced at the end of the week.
