Toronto's newly opened Enchanted Poutinerie offers a menu with a variety of unique options like Jerk Chicken Poutine, Chicken Nugget Poutine and Chicken Shawarma Poutine, as well as standouts like The Unicorn, which boasts multi-colored gravy. The Unicorn Poutine is really no different from regular poutine except for the fact that the Quebec curds used for its unique recipe are enhanced with food coloring. Once melted, the unconventional poutine dish reveals a range of marbled rainbow colors—and it is said to taste just like classic poutine.
The interior of the Enchanted Poutinerie boasts a design that's equally as colorful, complete with walls that are covered in a vinyl wrap that makes visitors feel as if they've entered a forest, as well as a colorful ceiling of purple, blue and pink swirling colors.
