Air Canada is putting the iconic Canadian dish: Poutine on the UK map to showcase 10 #CoolNotCold destinations in the Americas which you can fly to this winter and want everyone to try it. As a foodie I just couldn't resist, especially when I was told the base of the dish is chips, cheese and gravy - what is not to love.
