I attended Faculté St-Jean about 10 years ago. The Cheese Factory didn't exist at that time. But in the newly built Cité francophone, there was poutine at the restaurant with cheese imported from Québec. There were two other places to get poutine. The first one was at Harvey's at the airport. The poutine there was pretty much as the one you'd get at McDonald's in Québec. The second location to get poutine was the RATT (Room At The Top) on the main campus of the University of Alberta. It had nothing to do with poutine if you ask me. The gravy wasn't right and the cheese was grilled shreded yellow cheddar cheese. So because of the time spent under the gril, the gravy would sink in the fries that got mushy... Funny thing is, I never had poutine in Québec before moving to Edmonton.
