So anyone go anywhere good lately, with iHop opening on monday (surely this one will be better than the one in grand forks service wise) I'm kind of wondering if anyone has been anywhere decent recently

 

a month ago I went with my friends to canadian brewhouse.....man that was a good burger but a word to the wise, do not get an appetizer if you also plan on getting the John Candy Burger it's the second most expensive thing there...but man those garlic fingers were excellent, but there were more than I thought so I asked "anyone want to share my fingers?" which they gladly did

 

I can assure you that the John Candy Burger is nothing like whatever John Candy like item that Rumors Comedy Club has....it was just two patties compared to the Rita Challenge

 

I'm not sure if anyone has made a restaurant thread yet so I'm just leaving this here

What do you mean by leftovers.... I'm hoping it's just like "Day Old" kinda stuff...

Imagine if they really did have an app where they scraped plates and sold them online

I feel like we should trademark LEFTOVERS right now!

 

A new downtown Winnipeg eatery plans to serve its spicy chicken with a side of waiver forms.

I finally had a chance to try this drink out.   It is extremely sweet and the coconut leaves a very strong after taste in your mouth.   I'd say this was significantly sweeter then vanilla coke.   A very odd drink that I probably wouldn't buy again.   Cherry Dr Pepper is much better IMO.

I picked up the "Zero" version when I was in GF last June, my wife likes it with vodka...

thank god this long ordeal I have been having is almost over, it's bad enough that a Cold kept me from leaving the house, but then I had to get a cavity filled wisdom tooth pulled, I could only eat soft foods for several days (meaning no junk food either, though granted Ice Cream wasn't off the menu I just couldn't put toppings on it so Blizzards were out of the question as well) I joked to my mother that "When this is over with I'm going on the biggest junk food binge of my life"  and I've looked at way to many recipe making videos on facebook (my dietician told me that I shouldn't torture myself over stuff from the US I can't get here, wait til I tell her I finally got my hands on the cheese spray)

 

what I get myself tomorrow will depend on whether BP will have launched their new menu but I think we may not see it til November, I'm disappointed they didn't do better for their 60th.

Next time you have a tooth pulled use this kitchen hack.    Order your favorite meal from Boston Pizza and add a dollop of cheese spray,  next get a Ninja Blender and liquify it so that the next time you have a tooth pulled you can drink it from a straw!

Hopefully I won't have to the dentists claim that the other teeth are "Gone" but I never had any others growing and hopefully they won't

 

there's been a sighting of Arby's sauce and their Horsey Sauce (as in their horseradish sauce) at Primos at KP

 

Their cashier told me that their boss actually goes down to the states to get the stuff on his own (sounds similar to what the owner of Kelvin's Perk does)

the final spot at the strip mall at Kildonan Crossing has it's tenant

I wonder how they will do,  that area is heavily saturated with fast food burger joints.   

well it will open in time for Summer 2025 (and yeah that lot has alot of options I'll give it that considering that it will be competing with Firehouse, Bar Burrito, and the incoming Boustan) frankly I'm looking forward to their frozen custards

I was thinking more along the line that in that area they already have  Nuburger, Five Guys, Fatburger,  Wayback Burger,  George's Burgers,  The Burger Factory, Sals,  A & W, McDonalds, Burger King, Dairy Queen, and the Wendys on Plessis.

plus Applebees and Montana's not too far away even though they're sit down places

Tried Wayback for the first time last week. Thought it was insanely mediocre.

I bought a bottle of horsey to go with an outside round i had cooked and shaved for roast beef on safeway onion buns a couple weeks ago, that's how I knew. I was just looking over the condiment aisle and there it was. I was tickled pink. I used to love the Arbys roast beef sandwiches but am rarely able to get one these days.

I believe near Garden City mall that a new Arby's is under construction.    I'd assume it's near completion since it's seemed like they started work on it nearly a year ago.
