I went to the Salt House tonight with two of my friends for happy hour. I started off with my favorite beer, Franziskaner, a German weissbier – also from the makers of Spaten. It has a very nice cloudy color and is usually served with an orange (or lemon)… yum! It’s light and sweet – if you haven’t tried it, you should!

Everytime I go to the Salt House I end up ordering Poutin. Poutin is basically fancy disco fries – aka a pile of thick cut french fries covered in fontina cheese then covered in short rib gravy. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I DO NOT like to share this (but I do anyway because I’m nice). The short rib gravy is not a thick and heavy, it’s a lighter gravy with big chunks of short rib… SO GOOD, and they put it on top of the fries tableside.

If there were no such thing as calories and fat and being slightly lactose intolerant, I would eat Poutin everyday. I don’t understand those people on Yelp and Citysearch who talk sh*t on this dish, it’s seriously the BOMB. I love french fries, I could eat them everyday… and coming from a PA/NJ diner girl where disco fries were born, I have to say these are AWESOME.

Poutin gets disco fries ALL THE WAY, BABY!
