August 27, 20213 yr Author comment_517067 It could be anything because I know it won't be the Big Breakfasts return, because I spoke to a cashier from there awhile back she said it's unlikely it will return due to cooking capacity, and this was an issue long before COVID reared it's ugly head...and ultimately made the decision for them (and that's why we won't see the Morning McWrap back either, scrambled eggs take up space) stay tuned later when I review a set of corn dogs from the Chun Chung Rice Dog, I'll review tomorrow Edited August 28, 20213 yr by iHeart

August 27, 20213 yr comment_517096 Not sure if this is the right thread, but the wife and I are on our annual (sometimes twice annual) local brewery tour around Winnipeg today. We started at OGC for lunch and a beer, then Torque and Oxus. Then booted over to Sookrams and now sitting at Kilter. Winnipeg lags behind Cgy/Edm a bit in terms of breweries but the ones you do have are solid.

Have done all 3 (Stone Angel is a GREAT pre-Bombers game spot) and feature some of my favourite beers. TCB's "Lamplighter Amber" and Barn Hammers "Grandpa's Old Wool Sweater" (Sp??) Oatmeal Stout are just fabulous beers. Stone Angel has several good ones and the owner is a gem.... Angry old Brit who's fired up over anti vaxxers....

The only things that they could bring back that people actually enjoyed was the Hockey Hero Sandwich and also the Big Xtra burger.

I'll go far out of my way for Redhanded Irish Red Ale (thankfully it's right next to work, so I don't have to)
August 28, 20213 yr comment_517181 Spicy nuggets? Is this true? Simplot makes the McDs fries out of the very best potatoes you can buy, grown right here in Manitoba! Great fries.
August 28, 20213 yr Author comment_517200 well if I do recommend anything from the Rice Dog place, they actually have a corn dog that's nothing but Mozzarella, it's literally a big ass mozza stick on a stick. They have one that literally has just chocolate in it (have they ever thought of doing something similar with Bananas? ) I meant to order the one with Rice Cake it needs a second location, and one on my end of town because this was a three hour trip for me that I had to take by bus, the bus I take goes past the school I work at so that would be an easy trip (except the bus just has to take a break.....which is a problem if they are late) Edited August 28, 20213 yr by iHeart

August 29, 20213 yr Author comment_517373 well, they just confirmed it's not the McPizza, you guys have more access to Ted Lasso than I do so you probably know what they are talking about look I actually have memories of having McPizza but I don't think I ever reacted to it being discontinued Edited August 29, 20213 yr by iHeart

It was as popular as flatulence in an elevator.

Tommy's is awesome za! Their new spot on Corydon is fantastic as well, with TCB on tap. I'm loving the craft beer/brewpub scene in Winnipeg these days. Can't wait to hit up OGC again soon.

I am shocked that they pulled it off. This is great! I was so suspicious and not optimistic when they started the refurb on this. Too bad I don't work downtown anymore or I would have been down there after it opened.

City sold it, some guys cannibalized the pumps, sold it back to the city at a higher price then someone added a butt ugly apartments on stilts on the east end. Having said that, can't wait to visit. iHeart u buying? Edited August 30, 20213 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
