Michigan's Upper Peninsula Redeemed

After a very... sad poutine in Marquette the other night, yesterday for lunch I made my way to Eh! Burger in Munising. They advertised the essential build of fries, gravy, and FRESH curds on their menu. That's exactly what I got! Squeak, no melt at all even down near the bottom, and the UP got redeemed. The landscape alone already does it for this homesick Franco-Ontarian, so coming across this, wild blueberry jam everywhere, and actual good maple syrup *almost* made me feel like I was back home in Mattawa. Now if only SE Michigan could give this a go...

Is this the best you can do, Marquette?

I'm in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for the next few days, and while the landscape definitely does the trick for this homesick Franco-Ontarian, the poutine... Ok so the fries were good, but like Wendy's good. The gravy was probably the best I have had in a poutine in Michigan, but the curds (which of course only came deep fried) were just sad. The whole thing was 9 USD, perhaps the most criminal thing here. I opened the box after just a five minute drive and felt like I was definitely on this side of the border.
