Favourite Restaurants!

emcee · Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2008 1:45 pm Post subject: Favourite Restaurants!

Yeah, so I thought this would be cool, cause I looove going out to eat but of course I want to try out restaurants that are good right? So just specify what your favourite restaurant(s) are, what city they're in...etc. you can add why they're so great or your favourite dish too!

I personally loooove The Cannery in Vancouver - best seafood ever! I also really like Steamworks in Gastown, they've just got a really well-rounded menu and everything's super tasty.

Your turn!

I rarely eat out, but whenever I do, I always love going to MacDonalds! - Found almost anywhere!
I always order a Crispy Chicken Sandwich, large fries, and a small drink whenever I'm there. I actually had those today.

^ You know what, I`ve actually never been to The Keg (weird I know) but I DEFINITELY should go...haha

And McDonald`s is a guilty pleasure of mine too. Whenever I need a pick-me-up I get chicken McNuggets...MMM!

Fox & Fiddle - It's a pub-style restaurant. I've been to two locations, and the staff are usually very nice. Plus the food is delicious. My favourites being the Potato Boats and the Shepherd's Pie. There's lots of locations in Ontario, and there's one location in BC.

del Dente - It's Mediterranean and Italian food. As far as I know, there's only the Kitchener (Ontario) location. It's not that there's anything totally spectacular about the food, but the atmosphere is nice. Plus they give you endless (extremely delicious) bread before your meal, along with 3 spreads to go with it.

Crabby Joe's - It's a chain of tap and grills in Ontario. The food's really good, and most of the staff are great. I love their Chicken Strips, Caramel Milk Shakes, Spinach Pita Dip, and Virgin Daiquiris.

Wimpy's Diner and Angel's Diner - Both Ontario restaurant chains. The staff are okay, and the food is good. I just like the atmoshpere... '50s-style restaurants.

Sweet Dreams - Not a restaurant, but a Bubble Tea shop in Waterloo (Ontario). Their Banana Icy Swirls are amazing (they taste kinda like that banana penicillin stuff... yum), plus they sell Pocky. And, while you're there, they've got board games you can play, and magazines and stuff to keep yourself entertained.

Red Lobster, anyone?

st3ph · miss you D 05/05/92-06/16/08 (L)

East Side Mario's(chicken Caesar salad), Montanas (I get the quesadillas), Le Biftheque or the Outback (yes I'm a sucker for a good steak).

But my all time FAVOURITE is a restaurant called Teddy's. It's family owned and is the only one in Ontario. And their food is ammmazing.

OMG ! I have never been in those restaurants *except McDonald's of course* Laughing

! None of them can be found downtown here but maybe in big cities like Montreal... Personally, my favorite restaurant is "Le Crêpe Chignon" ^^ ! It's so delicious there and it just exists in my little city. The concept is really great and fun : you eat a French pancake for the principal meal and one for the dessert. The best one has chocolate, raspberries and pears all together, miam Razz

All the restaurants I find myself at are local ones, and there is no point in sharing those, so I won't.

Although I do love Macaroni Grill, probably just because they let me draw on the table cloth like a little kid.

i dont really eat out much, but one time i was in downtown with my friend
and we were hungry and we chose this one place over mcdonalds,
it was called 'Avenue Diner' i didnt really know what to expect since the place
was soo plain. but i went and i forgot what i ordered but it was a thick piece
of toast with this poached egg and some kind of sauce with tomatoes it was
sooooooooooooooooooooo yummy. i cant even describe it. when i took my
first bite, it was like a tango in my mouth. it was that delicious. the price
isint that bad either.

then yesterday for the first time in my life i went to boston pizza. it was so
strange, its like 5 minutes away from my house but ive never been there. i
had the cajun rice or something. but without the chicken cause im a vegetarian. it was really really good. kinda took me forever to finish it, but it
was yummy. and i had the cheesy bread. and a MOCKTAIL!! for the first time
in my life as well, lol. i got the raspberry one and it was so delicious.

i also love red lobster, they always have good shrimp
and olive garden has really good alfredo fettucini.
<3

^^^ Hahaha once my friend got serious food poisoning from Richmond Sushi..like serious hahaha. But then again he ate raw oysters which do come with a warning on them, so yes...

^ And my boyfriend lives so close to that place! Like a 10 min walk away! I've never tried it before, but I really want to, seeing as it has that sign outside that says that it's the best poutine as voted by like CBC viewers or something? Haha

I highly doubt anyone's gonna go to Ottawa anytime soon, but my favourite Japanese restaurant is downtown. It's called Festival Japan.

I went to the Pickle Barrel for the first time, the menu was weird because it was an actual book and there were so many options, my group of people had two waiters come to us, and the waiter forgot to put a coke on my sisters tab, overall it was okay The waiter also didnt tell us that you could have a side of salad OR fries
