Harvey's is a fast food joint with many locations scattered across the Great White North. The first time I had been to one was when I was in Toronto; It was also the first place I ever tried the delectable dish known as poutine.

From an American perspective, Harvey's fare may somewhat resemble a Wendy's, while having a little of the Burger King "We Do it Like You Do It" feel to it. In fact, they usually make your burger in front of you, which allows you both a great degree of control over the condiments and assurance of the meal's quality.

Finally, and perhaps a breath of fresh air from what I've seen at many fast food locations, Harvey's also offers veggie burgers for those of the vegetarian persuasion. I am not a vegetarian, but it's nice to see that they have offerings for those who have made such a choice.

If you are a non-Canadian who has never been to Harvey's, or even a Canuck who has thus far managed to avoid it, you really should check it out the next time you see one.
