Chip Stands
Do you like chip stands? Do you have a lot of them where you live? I've noticed since moving that there aren't any unless there's some kind of event going on but where I'm from they're everywhere. Especially in Gatineau, my gosh they're everywhere. They shut down for the winter months and open the rest of the year.
I love chip stands. Especially since most of the ones I've been to make excellent poutine.

I didn't even know this was a thing.

We get these at events, conventions, festivals and whatnot, but they aren't something that just exist all the time.
-
Why would you call them chip stands if you don't call them chips? What the hell.

Probably before you sold out and went American.

I love Mexican food trucks. so yummy. They're all over Nashville all year round.
And of course NYC. Cuz duh. I've only had a kebab from a kebab stand though. Was super yum.

Ah, burger vans and stuff. I go to them if they are the only food around. Otherwise I'd prefer to have something less questionable.

We have burger vans everywhere in my part of Wales. They usually park up outside of factories etc and make good money. They also park near but not too near to schools, to harvest kids. Naturally I visited them in school. I should've been a lot fatter.
They are great but the food is often terrible. It's a secret shame kind of deal for me. I once had a hot dog from a van man who also owned a butchers. It was more expensive, but it was incredible. I wish I could find it again.

I've never actually bought anything at these stands before. I probably wouldn't want to risk the bowel problems.

I know she put up a picture of a food truck, but she doesn't count those because I mentioned how food trucks have really taken off here in the past 10 years.
She's looking for a little place that only has outside seating, and sells things you basically cook with a fryer or a flat top grill. Something like a Checkers, but with out the drive-thru.

I count food trucks, its just the chip stand food trucks I'm used to don't move around. They just stay where they are. And it really isn't like a checkers :/
To be more specific, they're much much smaller

I'm trying to remember if people call them chip stands in Eastern Canada or not. I want to say we call them something else, but now I can't think of what else we would call them. Somebody from the Maritimes help me out here.
