This is another "my Dad..." story. My Dad took me here for my 21st birthday and we drank Ginny Creme in America. It was awesome, and my Dad regaled the table with stories of his youth, playing king contra in Drum Corps and drinking Ginny Creme…More »
This is my 50th Yelp review and Kat F recommended that I find some acceptable chicken wings to put on my list. This business wasn't even listed and I had to add it - that's how good and unknown this is.
Here are my personal memories from Buffalo Wing…More »
All Star Wings is 30km from my house in a random plaza that I always think also contains a Future Shop while we are driving there... but it does't. This has nothing to do with their wings, but it always just seems so random when we are driving PAST…More »

Squirleys has bad customer service. If you go there with this in mind, you will enjoy yourself. It's just something I accept here without bitterness or holding a grudge.
I am specifically going to focus my review on the chicken wings at this dive.…More »
Turtle Jack's Oakville was stop number one on the EPIC International Chicken Wings crawl. They have a lot of different, branching choices on their wing menu, including big or small wings, breaded or non-breaded, convection finished or BBQ finished…More »

Jazzmatazz is awesome (yes, I gave you a nickname - I don't think your name is really Jazzmine. That's just TOO unique of a spelling. I would like to view it on your driver's license). If you have dined with me, you know that I always want my food my…More »
Velvet (aka the bar with the question mark sign) is A-OK by me... I've been here twice and enjoyed it both times.
The first time was with Sarah T, where she ordered meatloaf. I did a double take cuz... that's just weird, yo. The second time was with…More »
This review will focus on chicken wings (like many of my pub reviews).
Like Chirs P's burrito, the wings here were 3 stars but everything else was a solid 4 stars. We finished up the Yelp cupcake crawl here and it was amazing good times. The beer…More »

I was here for a Yelp event like the previous handful of reviews, and I am going to have a similar rant/POV as the others. Waitress = fail.
When we showed up, we talked with our server about needing to cash out parts of the bill as people came or…More »
I met THE Zack S here for brunch and we ended up here, eating lunch foods. I was super excited when I walked in here - loved the decor, ambiance, other patrons (who I couldn't imagine in Leslieville outside of this pub) and the abundance of taps.…More »
The Barrel... in Fort Erie :) This was stop number 4 on the EPIC International Chicken Wings Crawl and it was hilarious. Sorry Kelly O, but I hated these wings. We didn't even eat them all. I had a lot of problems with this establishment.
But…More »
In a word: terrible.
I was visiting some friends in B-Town and we decided to order in wings. We got the 5lb box with 2lb hot, 2lb medium and 1lb honey garlic.
Medium was extremely weak. It was like ketchupy BBQ sauce. Honey Garlic was alright.…More »

I had a great time here. Maybe it was the company, maybe it was the patio or maybe it was the cask beer but I enjoyed myself at Victory.
The good:
- good beer selection and great prices
- good looking menu
- laid back staff (maybe too laid back) - but…More »

DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!
THEY DO NOT HAVE CHICKEN!!!!
Today I biked over to New Tasty Chicken House to check it out because their sign is so endearing. I cannot stress enough, that you NOT GO HERE. If it had been dark out, I would have been scared.
THIS IS…More »
After a fun mid afternoon meeting with a very hungover @mattyspence at the utterly horrific Brant House, Kat F and I needed to chill with some regular people - and that's kind of hard to come by these days on King West. I was desperately craving…More »
Like John, I also WANT to like this place.
Some background about me: I *love* BBQ. I go to ribfest…

Coffee in Leslieville/Riverside (14)I love coffee. I am picky about coffee. |
Places Where I had a Great Time (14)This is a list of places where I had a GREAT time. The food might not have been the best, the music might not have been the best, but something about my visit was awesome and I left saying 'this place is great.' Maybe it was the company, but I left feeling like everything was worth it. |
Places where I have met people from Russia (2)Here's hoping this list grows quickly! I meet Russians in the weirdest places. |
Music Stuff (4)Places I've bought guitars, guitar pedals, guitar amps, guitar strings, speakers, junk... basically where I waste all my money outside of bars. |
Breakfasts (23)I love breakfasts. These ones aren't necessarily the best, but I have been to them :) |
List of great dumps (7)Inspired by Kat's list of dumps that are happy to have us visit even if I smell like last night's booze and have to wear a hat... I present to you... my own... (drumroll)...LIST OF DUMPS! |
Rotisserie Chicken (4)I didn't know you could get chickens at so many places! |
Places where I have "a guy" (3)You know those people who have "a guy" for everything? He's the go-to guy, who knows everything about whatever and cuts you a cash deal? Well... my guys usually don't cut me a cash deal, but I won't buy from anyone else at these stores. |
Turn Down Your Baby (8)Inspired by a PM from a new user criticizing my dislike of children in restaurants, I have compiled this list of places that I have met children. (P.S. Please stop asking me to babysit) |
