Basically... I made Mike go here against his will and he is forever in debt to me.

We walked past this dump on the way to to an amazing coffee shop and saw a sign that said "$2 beer and pool" - I said "we're going there."  Mike said "I don't know..."…More »

  Update - 7/8/2010

I have been eating at Jim's over the past 2 weeks and I have only two words for you: PEAMEAL SANDWICH.  If I had to add two more words, they would be 'on rye.'

Jim's serves what I would generally consider to be peameal steaks on beautiful light rye…More »

    In my ongoing search for rotisserie chicken that rivals the delight that is swiss chalet, I decided… Read more »

Elliott and I literally ate a large pizza yesterday.  This guy has a hollow leg.  Maybe both of them are hollow.  It was a lot of pizza.

Danforth pizza house is old and has no decorations and they make everything from scratch.  The owner has been the…More »

"I am really happy right now,"  I said aloud to Kat F as we ate Bus Terminal food this morning.  When I was in high school, a bus terminal lunch was whatever you could get from the vending machines at the bus terminal in St. Catharines (usually…More »

THE Lancer.  I remember when they finally got debit.  Like a year ago.  :)

I have been going to the lancer for 10 years and it has been open and run by the same people for probably 50 years.  They have the BEST hashbrowns ever; period, the end.  The…More »

My sister moved to Kingston this week to start at teacher's college at Queens.  She was coming to pick me up from Niagara, and she called me from Oakville to say... well, she called to say she was in Oakville.  I decided that I probably had 40…More »

The Pastry House is in the same breakfast category as the Leslieville Diner.  It's inexpensive and just what you would expect.  Only... it's not what you would expect.

After entering you have to order at the cash register (minus one star to me) - but…More »

Recently updated lists from sarah l.

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 :)

Chicken Wings... for better or for worse (15)

I want a certain style of wing... I will accept no less than crispy, unbreaded, saucy, non ketchupy wings with veggies and bleu cheese.  Some dill dips are also acceptable.

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)

My Favorite of My Reviews (haha) (14)
