"At famously indulgent Au Pied de Cochon, there’s a beloved tarte au sucre (with ice cream) for two…but good luck eating it after a typically over-the-top meal there."

Lorraine Elliott

"The fries are also cooked in duck fat and there is a generous slab of foie gras on top as well as cheese curds. The sublime quality of the duck gravy and the foie gras makes this an incredible dish."

"This version came topped with some ice cream, which actually balanced out the sweet, buttery pie quite nicely. It was good, though definitely sweet!"

"Now if you only have time to try one poutine in all of Montreal, this is the place to get it. They served a classic poutine with chunks of foie gras, and I have to say it’s awesome. I don’t even love foie gras, but I had to admit that this was by far the best poutine I had in Montreal."

Jason Lee

"Check out Au Pied de Cochon in the Plateau Mont Royal for a soigné version of poutine. Their dish features fries fried in duck fat straddled with a generous lobe of foie gras, fresh Quebec cheese curds and doused in a foie gras gravy."

Mike Richard

"The Best Poutine Joints in Montreal: Au Pied de Cochon - But the real get for poutine-lovers is the foie gras poutine. The $24 CAD price tag may seem absurd, but it’s a unique dish you’ll only find in Montreal and it’s rich enough to be your only meal for the day."

Marie-Eve Vallières

"Almost too decadent for the imagination, this rich mixture of traditional poutine, exceptionally tasty gravy, squeaky cheese, and grilled foie gras is simply too fabulous to describe."

Dahlia Snaiderman

"Both pies were simply outstanding, with flaky crusts and perfect fillings. The sugar pie was sweet as can be with a smooth, light beige sugar and condensed milk filling."

Tim Forster

"Fine, you're not going to drop by Au Pied de Cochon just to pick up a slice of pie, but classics like sugar pie figure so prominently on the famous restaurant's dessert menu that it would be negligent not to include them."

Evelyn Reid

"Foie gras is generously spread over curd cheese and fries and served with a double take of rich foie gras sauce. The sauce is so good that it's sold on its own to local clients attempting the foie gras poutine recipe at home."
