Au Pied de Cochon
Québécois French
The foie gras poutine arrives with duck-fat fries, duck gravy, cheese curds, and more foie gras than feels legal, which tells you everything about what Martin Picard is doing here. This Plateau bistro is loud, amber-lit, and unapologetically devoted to the richer cuts of the pig-and-foie gras canon. An entire menu section belongs to foie gras alone. Finish with pouding chômeur and feel very Québécois about the whole thing.
