Nobody around your neck of the woods do poutine, minibrings? But then if they did, it probably wouldn't be the same. That gravy they use is pretty key, not to mention the cheese curds. I had some last time I was in Montreal, in June. I think I took at least a month off my lifespan, just eating about a third of a regular-sized one.

Exactly right. When I met my hubby he used to glop massive amounts of French's Mustard on his burgers. He once made me a burger like that and I found it totally inedible. And told him so in no uncertain terms. Just a small amount, please. Actually I prefer just fresh veggies on my burgers - lettuce, toms, avocado, onion, than traditional condiments. Salsa verde's really nice too.
But I know many people who love ketchup that drown their fries in it, easily 1-to-3 parts ketchup-to-fries or more.
I ask them if they want any fries with their ketchup.

Sounds like me again.
Do they put avocado on hamburgers in Oz?
In Canada, avocados are semi-exotic and are infrequently served in almost any kind of restaurant.

Some places will put Avocado in hambrugers. But putting Beetroot in hamburgers, is far more common.

Don't see sweet potato fries that often here my dear, but I'll try and make you some if you like. No guarantees of how edible they'll be though.

I can't rave about Grill'd enough to be honest. They really are old school hamburgers like you used to get EXCEPT better because they're actually pretty healthy!
