Best Breakfast Poutine — SoLo on Main in Port Stanley

A Port Stanley restaurant puts a fresh morning spin on a beloved Quebec classic.

Poutine may have deep 1950s roots in rural Quebec, but SoLo on Main in Port Stanley, Ontario, gives the Canadian staple a brilliant morning makeover. Operating under fresh management, the restaurant swaps out standard curds for rich mozzarella cheese. Their Breakfast Poutine stacks smoky bacon, chorizo, caramelized onions, perfectly cooked eggs, gravy and velvety hollandaise over house-cut French fries. The menu also includes a variety of locally sourced meal options, including fresh Lake Erie perch. soloonmain.com
