(hey to be honest the ones at the Tim's Rehab Clinic, their chocolate dipped donuts are basically plain cake donuts dipped in chocolate) Not for me. Years ago they were good and used to bake everything in house. Now everything is shipped to them and they just heat up the donuts. They are very meh. I wish Tim's would go away so we can get something better.

The doughnuts are so bad now it's hard to go back after tasting literally anywhere else. Robins, Safeway, O Doughnuts, Bronuts... anything else is much better.

November 3, 20195 yr comment_439706 After more than 40 years of serving veal scallopini and chicken parmigiana, an iconic Italian eatery on Portage Avenue has closed for good. Sunday was supposed to be the last supper at Paradise Restaurant & Lounge but workers said the owners shut down after closing time Friday.

It was close to a building that I worked out of sometimes.

'They stole the recipe, which is good': How the Fat Boy burger became a Winnipeg icon https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/fat-boy-burger-winnipeg-icon-1.5344645 Junior's founder Gus Scouras says the basic recipe for the Fat Boy, if not the name, came from his restaurants

" Big Boy customers were known to casually call the restaurant's burger "the Fat Boy," and Scouras suspects Big Boy alumni who went on to other eateries wanted people to know the meaty marriage was on their menu — but didn't want to steal the Big Boy name. " And yet the Big Boy logo was clearly copy-right theft inspired by Big Boy Restaurants out of the USA.

McDonald’s is in the same price range and has much better coffee - it’s not even close.
November 4, 20195 yr Author comment_439734 well at least we know McD's bakes their stuff in store right?

Speaking of Robin's, has anyone noticed them getting extremely stingy with the glaze on their doughnuts over the past 6ish months? Used to enjoy a nice chocolate glaze or walnut crunch there on occasion, but lately it's like the glaze they used was extremely thin and all either ran off or soaked into the doughnut.Even had a 'honey' cruller that was more like eating a croissant (both due to lack of glaze and dryness). Only been to the Cityplace location, so I can't speak for others...
November 6, 20195 yr Author comment_440050 well I tried that Smoked Sausage breakfast sandwich and, well you can really taste the sausage in that. And now that I actually have tried it.....I don't need to order it again

November 17, 20195 yr comment_444341 I always heard Earl of Sandwich was great. Had it in Vegas and while it was good I didn’t think it was anything overly special. It will probably do great here though.

Considering people went cuckoo over Popeyes , IHOP and Jollibees and they are all absolute garbage... I can only imagine how busy it will be.
November 18, 20195 yr Author comment_445837 So we have an opening date for the two newest Popeyes locations. Henderson is opening next month, Transcona is opening in February 2020
