There's a lot to unpack here. Instead of curd cheese there's cheese sauce like cheap cheese-whiz with gravy. That's not a nice mix in your stomach. And I hope you like chive. To save the restaurant's face I reckon (or I hope) that it wasn't named a poutine in the menu.

Notice
It's a real opinion of a real meal bought in a restaurant but not all restaurants labelled the meal as being a poutine and it's all in the spirit of discovery and fun. Some labelled the dish as "loaded fries" or simply with the ingredients "Chips, Gravy & Cheese". I wish everyone would try every poutine and all the close variations. For any chef or worries restaurant owner the best solution is still to do more research on poutine, its origin and the existing variations in Quebec. Otherwise the "loaded fries" label is a very polite way to tell that you're not going to have curd cheese, for example, even if it won't prevent a Quebecois from thinking about poutine while eating loaded fries.
