TOPIC TUESDAY TOPIC:
THE GOLDEN CHICKEN
1910 Ch D'oka, Deux-Montagnes
(450)-473-4661

Ahhh yes, the Golden Chicken. Probably then ONLY restaurant worth going to in Two-Mountains...Let me tell you a little about it. It's a small restaurant at the corner of the town's main strip. The interior is wood panneling with a turquiose green trim and there are decorative rosters scattered around. Outside, the yellow sign has an big chicken with big muscle lifting a pizza pie into the air....I think you get the picture.

The Golden Chicken is best know for (bet you thought I wasgoing to say chicken right?) it's ever savoury souvlakis as well as its extra greasy/cheesy pizzas. They also serve the best (in my opinion) poutine in town and sugar pie too!

Lets beging with the favourite: souvlaki pitas. Every now and then I get this increadible craving for a Golden Ckicken Souvlaki pita, and now I'm going to tell you why this is so... They have the most fluffy pitas I've ever eaten. The are thick and dough-y and come wrapped in foil to keep them at the optimum temperature. When you bite into these pitas, they leave behind yummy crumbs all over your lips...one if it's best features in my opinion. Now the key to this and ANY souvlaki is the tzatziki sauce. The Pino Boys have mastered the recipe becasue it's sooo creamy/oniony/smelly/sweet that you're gonna want to take somew extra to go. The rest is up to you, but the standart pita come with or withou meat and onions, tomato and the smallest amount of shredded lettuce.

Next is their pizza. I have only had it on a few occasions, but can remember the taste like it was yesterday. It's uber greassy and always has cheese to spare, infact the cheese is sometimes so abundant that it can be almost too much, if that's possible. The crust is puffy and crisp and not too thin....jhust right. This pizza is so good, I'll even eat it cold.

POO-tine....how can one go wrong when you mix fries, gravy and cheese curds? The best part..it's vegitarian so everyone can enjoy it's fatty goodness. Next to McDonalds, the Golden had my favorite fries. The are the medeuim thick Mc Cain fries and they always cook them to a golden crisp perfection....The sause is BBQ-e but not too spicy, thick without being lumpy and sooo HOT! (hot in temperature I mean) And I think the temperature in the tsauce is what makes this putine so good. Becasue the sauce is so hot, the curds melt and then you've got a cheese goo feast..The only problem I have with it is that i only like it until the fries get soggy, then I can't eat it any more. My fries need to be crispy, but all I usually do is ask for less sauce or have it on the side to add as needed....

Sugar pie......need I say more?
10/10

As for the rest of the menu, I haven;t tried much else, but they've got jst about everything. The even have a chinese food menu (egg rolls, fried rice, wont-tong soup....) I have yet to try anything chines from there. only because i only eat chinese from a chinese food place...your choice though... The also have good subs, I've never had one but my brotyhers a BIG fans of them and I have to admit, they do look real good....They got the pasta, lasangnas, subs, hot sandwiches, clubs sandwiches, fish, burgers....they got the works and at a very affordable price. You could easily eat a big meal with soup and desert and coffee for under $10.....Trust me you'll be stuffed, the portions are quite generous.

So next time you are in Two-Mountains or withing the Golden Chicken's delivery range....try them out...I can guarantee you'll be back for more.
