McD's must have charged less for the McLobster 61 bucks for a whole lobster as an add on for the Angus Top Sirloin Filet? okay I get they have to pay something heavy to have something shipped here but man Edited April 23, 20232 yr by iHeart

April 24, 20232 yr comment_627773 Its too far away but Red Lobsters unlimited shrimp this week for only $20 was a great price. Actually was same $20 as USA so you know you're winning.
April 24, 20232 yr comment_627784 It's an upscale place, those prices are actually cheap. I remember going to places in Toronto 20 years ago where the lowest price item on a menu was $30.

It's faux-upscale place... where your featured steak is a top sirloin and is served with "Haricots Verts" (which is just green bean in french) - it screams "try hard".
May 5, 20232 yr Author comment_629290 So I added a new place to my "I will return" list. There's a place called White Picket Fence on Henderson Highway near the Santa Lucia, they have stuff that I have never seen at Tee-Yah's (and their biggest advantage it that they sell ice cream) but you will not believe what I saw there, they have condiments (alot of different hot sauces), some from Taco Bell some are for Tostitos, I'm actually munching on Skittles Chewies (no shell) right now Edited May 5, 20232 yr by iHeart
May 5, 20232 yr comment_629291 White Picket Fence is awesome. I love the assortment of seasonings and hot sauces. Maritime Madness makes some killer hot sauces (Mustard Pickle is unbelievably good). Edited May 5, 20232 yr by blue_gold_84 link added

I really wish Stoke the Fire was available somewhere locally. Their Garlic Fire is the best tasting sauce I’ve ever had. https://www.stokethefirehotsauce.com/

We received a bottle a bottle as a welcome gift when we stayed at an Airbnb in Revelstoke a couple years ago. Now I buy a bottle every time I am in the Okanagan.
May 11, 20232 yr Author comment_629929 okay, I tried Leopold's Tavern today on Henderson, next time I'm sticking to appetizers because I couldn't decide

June 4, 20232 yr Author comment_633579 I could sure use that Permit tracker right now, I'm 60 percent sure there's a new restaurant going into Kildonan crossing across from the Bank whatever is going in there I hope it's something that's already in the Sterling Lyon area oh speaking of which St.Louis Bar and Grill will open on July 10th Edited June 4, 20232 yr by iHeart
June 5, 20232 yr comment_633655 I just don’t understand the fascination with chain restaurants, especially US based ones. I’m not saying I never go but there are so many great local spots in all areas of Winnipeg and the surrounding area.
June 5, 20232 yr comment_633664 I believe St Louis Bar and Grill is Canadian despite the name. Similar to Boston Pizza.

They started in Toronto about 30 years ago and while they are still mainly based in and around the GTA, they have locations in 4 other provinces (BC, Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia & New Brunswick) as well.
June 6, 20232 yr comment_633943 Couldn't find a reference online but heard it reported on the radio this morning that 7-11 on Ness at Sturgeon Rd has applied for a Liquor License to allow them to serve beer and wine in their dining area and with Takeout/delivery. That used to be my local Sev, lots of room to expand the store in the lot and not much around, or is there a plan to take over a vacant spot in the adjacent strip mall and add a separate sit down dining area...
