Somehow, FOOD always seems to enter the equation while travelling the north.
This is NOT a variant of poutine (though we have found many and been told of many more). It is a form of Bread Pudding with caramel sauce. It is the culminating element of a delicious (and generously-portioned) meal aboard the MV Chief Commanda Sunset Cruise. We had fish as a main course, HUGE piece of fresh whitefish of some kind (forgot to ask).
Oh yeah… the cruising part. Left in a rainstorm, skies cleared (they call it Blue Sky Country up here) and we were treated to a beautiful sunset (as promised). Pics in another post but had to get the food outta the way! Went over to Callandar Bay and zig-zagged through the many islands.
The north is about rocks and trees and water and people. We’ve seen lots of trees. Lots of rocks. Been on the water in wee boats, and big boats, and bigger boats. And always great people.
… and the food.

Do you know of book, Come on Over: Northeastern Ontario A-Z which covers the region you are driving and would be very useful guide? See scrivenerpress website for details and excerpts including places to buy (all over northeast at Chapters, Coles, Ramakkos, some drugstores)

I did not know of this book, but I am always interested in Ontario’s history and, well, present. I will be on the lookout for it starting today. If I had a fixed address I would order it immediately!
