Two Tuesdays ago, I caught an early flight to Winnipeg. It arrived at 10 am. I had been awake since…read more4:30 am. After fetching my luggage and rental car, I was ready for lunch at around 11 am. If anyone knows me, I tend to eat a later lunch no matter how early I am up. However, I had a long day ahead of me driving down to the Twin Cities, so I needed some nourishment. It was a no-brainer move for me to visit this Jollibee location: - It was the first one established in Canada - It has a drive-thru - I needed my Fillipino fast food fix - It's less than ten minutes away from the airport I love Jollibee. I am thrilled that the greater Toronto area (GTA) has locations. However, none of them have drive-thrus. All three Winnipeg Jollibee locations do. What is wrong with you, GTA?! I am also ecstatic that Jollibee chose Winnipeg for its first Canadian location. Winnipeg boasts the highest Filipino population per capita and has Canada's third-largest Filipino population. It truly deserved the nod. I could have dined in. I wanted to hit the drive-thru and did just that. I had the most helpful woman take my order. My order comprised these items: - Pineapple juice - Two burger steaks with steamed rice - A side of spaghetti - Peach mango tea I asked if I could do a side of spaghetti. I could. Yay! My order was over $20. I frankly don't remember the exact price, which is odd for me. I was borderline hangry. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was good. I got my drink and bag of food fairly quickly. I thanked the woman and headed over to an available parking spot in a vast parking lot to chow down. I love the pineapple juice. It's sweet, but not disgusting gross. It's like a cheerful burst of happiness when you sip it. My go-to meal is the two burger steaks with steamed rice. It's the mushroom gravy that makes this meal awesome. I mixed the sauce with the steamed rice and enjoyed it with the burger steaks. It's brilliant comfort food that made me so happy. I love the spaghetti. You get small slices of hot dogs in a tangy-slightly sweet sauce. The noodles were perfectly done. I loved eating it from a cup. It's nice getting drive-thru spaghetti. Fazoli's is the other chain that I know of where you can get spaghetti at a drive-thru. I normally get two peach mango pies. I decided to get one because my order was large. It hit the spot. The exterior was crispy. The peach mango filling was excellent. I was so happy. I loved this location so much that I ate here before I headed to the airport to head home to Toronto. My order was similar, except that I wasn't hangry. I omitted the pineapple juice and spaghetti. My lunch was satisfying. I probably saved a bit having comfort food at Jollibee than dining at the airport. I love this location. The food was yummy. Staff were helpful and friendly. When I'm back in town, expect my paying a visit or more here. (79)

Winnipeg has three Jollibee eateries. After taking in a Winnipeg Goldeyes game on a Sunday…read moreafternoon, I needed something to eat. This location was the closest one, so I drove over here to get a late lunch. There was lots of parking around this eatery. I backed into a spot and headed over to the entrance. There's one door to enter and another door to exit. I appreciated the flow. I got to the counter. A polite, nice woman said hi and took my order. I got the following items: - Pineapple quencher - Two burger steaks with rice - Spaghetti (side order) - Peach mango pie I paid with a credit card. The transaction went smoothly. I got a buzzer that would signify that my order was ready to pick up. It had my favourite number on it, so I knew that all was right with the world. I found a table to sit at. My phone was running low battery-wise, so I had it charge thanks to my power bank as I sat there. It didn't take long for my order to be ready. I saw and felt the buzzer go haywire on the table. I brought it up to the front to exchange it for my tray of food and a drink. I thanked the woman and happy enjoyed my late lunch. I love the pineapple quencher. Sure, it's sugary, but I don't have it often. It's cheerful and yummy. It's like liquid sunshine in a cup. The burger steaks with rice were delicious. It's my go-to meal. The burger steaks were yummy. I loved the mushroom gravy that I mixed in with the perfectly steamed rice. It's comfort food. It's a habit for me to get a side order of spaghetti. I loved the sliced hot dogs in it. The spaghetti was al dente. The sauce had a tangy sweetness to it that was enjoyable. If you need to use the washroom, you must get the access code from a staff member. They are separate stalls and are constantly maintained for cleanliness. I saw staff check them out three times while I was there for an hour. Although you're probably not supposed to get a refill of Diet Pepsi after purchasing a pineapple refresher, I did. I needed to wash down my main meal and get to the peach mango pie. No staffer said anything, which was nice. The peach mango pie is different at Jollibee locations in Winnipeg compared to the one that I frequent in Scarborough. The pie is cheaper in price. The crust is thinner and less doughy. It's crispier. This pie is so good. It was packed full of peach mango filling in every bite. This eatery has a drive-thru. I'll need to try it out next time just to say that I've used it to place an order. It was nice to try a different Jollibee eatery while in Winnipeg. I have one more location remaining before I can say that I have visited all Jollibee locations in the city. This Jollibee restaurant was clean. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food and drink were excellent. I'd return when I'm in the area again. (289)

On two occasions in July, 2024, I've been overcharged by the Little Caesars on Ellice Avenue in…read moreWinnipeg. Both times, I bought a pizza for $11.99 plus PST and GST. Both times, my receipt said the total amount with taxes was $13.43. Both of these transactions on my credit card statement were charged as $13.45 (so they rounded up these transactions by two cents each, as though they were cash transactions). This is dishonest of them at best, and illegal at worst. Shame on you, Little Caesars.

Winnipeg seems to have more stores per capita than the Toronto area. The closest one to where I am in the former city is a block away. After shopping up a storm, I decided to grab some dinner and take it back. I visited this store, which had plenty of parking in the lot. It wasn't busy. My usual order was no longer being promoted. Instead, I got the Deep! Deep! Canadian pizza and an order of cheesy bread. So yummy! I was shocked that my order was ready in five minutes. I was impressed! Service is obviously prompt. This location has seats, so you can sit while you wait. Nice touch! (154)

Oriental Bowl is mainly a takeout place for Chinese food. I used to order from this place from time…read moreto time when I lived several blocks away from it. It is in the southern part of Osborne Village, closer to confusion corner (it's where all the major streets intersect and the map is fun to look at, especially if you're new to the city). I have never stepped foot in this place. I have walked past it countless times. Every order that I have made was over the phone. The folks taking my order were always friendly and did not mess up any of them. The food is okay. It's Cantonese-style that has its westernized moments. I love the Oriental Bowl special fried rice. It has barbequed pork, shrimp, chicken, peas, carrots, and egg. They used to be generous with the fried egg, which I appreciated. I enjoyed the lemon chicken. The chicken was white meat. The sauce was yummy. The batter could have been lighter, though. I still loved it. This place has good chop suey. Can you tell that I ordered here because I love egg dishes? I pretty much tried them all. The barbequed pork, and chicken and mushroom varieties stood out the most. Finally, the mooshi was yummy. I've done the chicken and beef. You get four pancakes. It's fun eating them. The egg roll is okay. It's nothing to write home about. I'd be okay to skip it. It's a solid place for good food when you're hungry and on a budget. This place stays open late (from 10:30 pm till 1:00 am), depending on the evening. (133)

I can't bring myself to fault anything about here because I can't find any faults.

All excellent, and I always include a coleslaw with my order, which has consistently been tasty. Their fries are so much that the plate that comes to you usually looks quite mountainous. Probably one of my easiest 5-star reviews I've ever done. Never change, Nick's Inn.
