  1. My Dominos in the west end has a good pick-up special. $5 for a small 1-topping. Can't beat that and they throw in 2 packets of hot peppers to boot!
  2. I agree - Buchko used Bell as a meat-shield, trotting the guy with the perfectly pressed white shirts, gnatty tie and brush-cut out to the media whenever the heat came on. But I don't know what Bell has accomplished other than being an extra security guy on the grounds. He represents continuity, yes but its only to the most repugnant era in bomber history.
  3. Ossama AbouZeid He was the interim CEO prior to Buchko, and continued in his role a stadium project manager when Buchko arrived on the scene. He is now on the board of directors. Wasn't Ossama also the guy who was project manager for the Winnipeg Police facility which has come up over 70 million over his initial budget figures? Too often our board of directors gets too excited when a guy arrives in town with a sparkly resume, having built an apartment block in the middle east!
  4. Unfortunately the Five Guys on Regent in Winnipeg is god awful, way over priced and very bland and greasy. A & W *used* to be way more over priced then the other fast food chains but for some reason McDonalds (sorry McCafe now lol) has really started jacking up the prices and the food taste more and more fake. At least A & W and Wendys taste like real meat and has a lot of flavour while McCafe and Burger King simply gives you gut rot lol. For the biggest rip off in town Ace Burpees Market Burger on Corydon was hilariously bad... our table of 8 had to wait an hour and 45 minutes to get our order.... my burger with 2 slices of cheese and bacon and sauteed onions was $13.50 for the burger itself... it was served on an cold bun and had not an ounce of seasoning on the patty. By far worst Burger place that I've seen. Most of the greasy spoons now in town are at the same price if not cheaper then the fast food chains and the portions and quality usually are much higher... I expected more from Ace cuz his reputation in town is very solid and he does tons of charitable work. (sometimes for hire) Too bad he's so busy he doesn't have time to audit his own burger joint and force the product better. btw Isn't Doug Brown a partner in Ace's Market Burger. Had a nice experience a couple months back with Unburger on Stradbrook. Was definitely a B+ to A- burger with B- fries but last time I went (2 weeks ago) the Burger was red, the fries were dead but the bill was still $12.50
  5. Finally something I can agree with Mike on. Good work Mike. Nice sub-section on the burgers!!!
