Possible not on the GC property? the popeyes/Qdoba is located not far from the site, and GCSM probably won't list it on the map until it's completed here's a picture of the property from a pic I took awhile back if I remember I'll take another one on the way home Edited October 11, 20222 yr by iHeart
October 11, 20222 yr comment_601298 Assuming the address is 870 Leila, two permits for 5 Guys have gone out in the last couple months. https://ppdportal.winnipeg.ca/Permits/PropertyPermitSearch/Proc.jsp?streetNumber=870&streetName=Leila&streetType=AVE
October 11, 20222 yr Author comment_601299 yeah but aren't those normally at Strip malls or plaza's (I know the one closest to me is near a Dairy Queen) also since when did Five Guys have a drive through window? Edited October 11, 20222 yr by iHeart
October 11, 20222 yr comment_601301 Not this time it would appear. The last permit was for signage on the north, south and west sides of the building and the earlier one mentions the drive through so it has to be it's own building. 5 guys only started doing drive throughs in 2020 so it's definitely a newer thing for them.

October 12, 20222 yr comment_601302 It would make sense since they don't have any locations in that end of town. When I was in the States a few "diner" style burger places were experimenting with very long drive thru lines. They would have two very long lines. One in which they come to your car to take your order (a la A & W from early 80's) and the other line was online orders with people coming to pick up rather then going inside. Apparently it was popular but I thought it wasn't very effective since each line had 10 - 15 cars each.

November 10, 20222 yr Author comment_607495 I was planning on doing this tomorrow since both parents would be home, but since my mother got the day off I got to do it today instead...and I couldn't have been happier with the results. Reese's Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate, made from scratch Don't get me wrong I prefer to do Hot chocolate bombs because it's less effort but I might do scratch more often Edited November 26, 20222 yr by iHeart

November 16, 20222 yr Author comment_609939 So this year Boston Pizza is giving away Ferrero Rochers instead of Toblerones and they haven't really added onto the holiday menu (I guess the fall menu stuff went over well) the only thing they changed is the drinks oh and RIP Kub Bread
November 21, 20222 yr Author comment_612600 Mary Browns has added biscuits to their menu (remember when all these chicken joints were adding thick chicken sandwiches here just to keep people away from Popeyes)
November 22, 20222 yr Author comment_612677 yeah what's going on with it a new location was supposed to open around this time, has it been delayed to next year or something?

November 30, 20222 yr Author comment_613682 so anyone got any ideas for appetizers? because I've been assigned to bring an appetizer to christmas dinner this year (because the Gnocchi Pizza Bites I made went over too well) and I want to make something else and I'm leaning towards something Pillsbury related. Although the recipe was awesome, last time I made it I was worn out by the time it was time to put it in the frying pan (it's the skillet Gnocchi from Olivieri) I'm also kind of leaning towards doing that but actually wrapped cheddar stuffed Gnocchi in Pepperoni
