Meal: dinner
My thoughts:
I was in Waterloo to visit my good friend LL and she suggested this
place. She'd never been but had said that she'd heard it was a popular place in
town. We got there around 6. It was already quite busy, but we were promptly
seated. We sat in one corner of the restaurant, where it was a bit too dark,
and our waitress was more than accommodating, but we were just too hungry to
care.
We decided to share the Poutini Martini ($8.61) my friend knew full well that
I had been craving a poutine for god knows how long! I personally found this to
be the highlight of the meal. The best part was the battered onion rings; it
was an interesting addition (in a good way). There was also a good amount of
cheese curds and gravy, and a heck of a lot of fries! This was big
(and pricey) enough to be a meal on its own, but I would recommend trying this
at least once, or at least the onion rings as an appetizer.
The burgers are create your own. You choose your own patty, bun toppings, bun, add-ons and side. The prices are based on what bun toppings you choose. Certain things come at an extra cost, such as the elk patty.
I had a ground beef patty with the Uptown toppings ($12.96) on a whole wheat bun and sweet potato fries.
My friend had a ground beef patty with the Smokey Mountain toppings ($12.93) on a white bun and sweet potato fries.
I later found out that there are a few locations in Toronto, which I'm
really glad about, because Waterloo is more than a bit out of my way! I
stumbled upon one in Etobicoke a few weeks ago at Windemere and Bloor, and I
hear there is another one on the east end on the Danforth. Yippee!
