The best biscuits and gravy I ever had in Canada were not in a restaurant but rather made by a lady up in Pickle Lake Ontario - this k the furthest north town in Ontario you can drive to. She was from N Carolina, and she made great biscuits.
Her gravy was made by frying shaved smoked ham in butter and oils and then adding a milk and flour mix to get the white gravy. It was rich, and when I asked for my second helping, I said, "I think I just felt some blood moving in my veins. Do you think I could try another helping of that angel food?"
