Chez Vachon In New Hampshire Serves 5 Pounds Of Poutine

Our Canadian neighbors to the north know a thing or two about comfort food. Luckily, you don’t have to drive to Quebec for tasty poutine – there’s a restaurant right here in Manchester that specializes in this tasty dish. In fact, they even serve up a five-pound platter of poutine, but we bet you can’t finish it all in one sitting.

Chez Vachon has been in the neighborhood for over 30 years. It focuses on French-Canadian cuisine, and friendly service, and you'll find it at 136 Kelley St., Manchester, NH 03102.

There's a reason this place has had so much success over the years. The cozy, cheerful decor will make you feel right at home.

This restaurant serves delicious comfort food including crepes, burgers, sandwiches and more...but their signature dish is poutine. For the uninitiated, poutine is French fries topped with a cheese curds and flavorful gravy.

You can get your poutine customized to your taste by adding your choice of vegetables and meat. Pictured is poutine with steak, bacon and jalapeño.

Poutine can also be added to other menu items. A light, fluffy crepe with poutine might hit the spot.

Order poutine as an appetizer, or get a regular or large-sized order. If you're *really* hungry, you might want to try the Grand Poutine Challenge - five full pounds of poutine on a platter.

You'll have one hour to finish the entire platter of poutine. If you manage to finish it, you'll get your photo on the wall of the restaurant and have eternal bragging rights.

While many have tried this challenge, few have succeeded. Most contestants are only able to make a small dent in their meal.

Every once in awhile, someone comes along and finishes it all. Do you think *you* could eat five pounds of poutine?
