Overview & Highlights

If you find yourself cruising along County Rd 32 in Gananoque, Ontario, you may come across a quaint yellow food truck that promises a delightful culinary experience—welcome to Taste of Home. This charming spot has quickly garnered a reputation for serving some of the best comfort food in Canada, with a focus on hearty, satisfying dishes that feel like a warm embrace.

At the heart of Taste of Home is their signature dish: the poutine. Locals and visitors alike rave about the sensational quality of the poutine served here. Kevin Zeng, a satisfied guest, boldly declared it to be the "best poutine in the world," challenging even the most famous establishments in Montreal. This acclaim is not merely hyperbole; it is a testament to the perfect balance of cheese curds, savory gravy, and fries that come together to create a rich, indulgent experience. Many patrons appreciate the generous portions and reasonable prices, marking it as a fantastic value for the delightful quality.

But the menu doesn't stop there. Edward Bryant's review highlights the inventive popcorn chicken poutine, which offers a remarkable twist on the classic dish. The careful crafting of flavors ensures that the gravy harmonizes with the fries without overshadowing them, while the popcorn chicken adds a delightful crispiness that makes for an unforgettable meal. Lindsay Lavery also shares her enthusiasm, noting that their French fries rival the best, with a perfect cheese curd-to-gravy ratio that brings joy to any fry connoisseur.

Beyond the meals, what truly sets Taste of Home apart is the warm, inviting atmosphere cultivated by the passionate owner. Multiple reviewers have commented on the friendly service, with accolades for the chef who engages with guests even during busy times. This personal touch creates an environment that feels like home, where diners not only enjoy their food but also feel valued as part of a community. Whether you opt for the deep-fried pickle poutine or the delightful pulled pork bun as Jennifer Tomasone experienced, each visit is sure to leave you with lasting memories.

Moreover, Taste of Home isn’t just for humans; they even consider our furry companions by providing fresh water in a dog bowl, making it a perfect pit stop after a long drive. From the well-balanced dishes to the exceptional service, it's easy to see why this little yellow truck in the middle of nowhere has earned a loyal following.

In conclusion, Taste of Home has perfectly blended comfort and creativity, offering dishes that resonate with people from all walks of life. Come for the best poutine, stay for the heartfelt service, and leave feeling like a part of the family.

A must. Best poutine in the world or whole Canada at least. I can’t even find better one in Montreal. The lady is so nice. It’s a yellow truck in the middle of nowhere. I should has order poutine with fried chicken. I would come back again.

Absolutely delicious! Cheese Curd to Gravy to French fries ratio is As someone who is on the search for the best French fries, this has made the top of my list. Portions are huge, price is so reasonable, and flavour is delicious.

Popcorn chicken poutine—amazing. Well balanced, gravy blends with the fries but doesn’t overpower. Curds were nicely soft and plenty of pull and the popcorn chicken addition made it a meal. Three of us could barely finish a large. Fantastic!!

My sandwich was great,she even has a dog bowl for ur animals if they are thirsty after a drive,I added sausage in my toasted western it was great:)

Service was fast and so friendly! The owner/chef took time to chat with us even though the orders kept coming. The food was tasty (we ordered deep fried pickle poutine and their special of the day which was pulled pork on a bun with fries) and great portion sizes for the price. A great little spot - will definitely go back!

Great food truck! I got the popcorn chicken poutine which was absolutely delicious. Julie is amazing, highly recommend!

I highly recommend the breakfast poutine. You will not be disappointed! It has home fries, bacon, breakfast sausage, gravy, cheese curds and topped with an egg that oozes creaminess throughout the dish. For the price, it's a steal. The regular size can feed two people. The service here is second to none. Best chip truck I have been to in a very long time!

Great little food truck was in the area for work. I figured I'd try it deffinaly worth the stop. I had burger and fries, and for 17 bucks with pop beats, every fast food chain burger hands down service was speedy and staff was friendly Will definitely return when in the area for work
