    Osborne Branch Crepe
    Calvin S.

    Well, finally tried this place. I'm used to these cute places popping up in my hometown of Toronto, so going here was more of revisiting food that I can get from Toronto, but with a Winnipeg twist. If you haven't eaten Japanese crepes, definitely give it a try. There's lots of different varieties, and depending on what you order there are savoury and sweet options, so you can have it as a meal or dessert. Since I came for lunch, I had The Osborne Branch, one of the savoury options in the menu. I also had one of the bubble teas which I forgot the flavour. The crepes are actually very good! I wish I could've taken a better photo of the crepe though, as the toppings were way too far in the crepe. Perhaps the crepe to ingredients ratio can be improved. The bubble tea was also not bad, definitely one of the better ones in Winnipeg. Tables are a bit dirty here as the place gets quite busy, but otherwise I will definitely return.

    Sweet Crepes Menu
    Jon-Jon G.

    An extensive menu of made-to-order, sweet and savoury, Japanese-style crepes in the Osborne Village. My friend got the Big Feast, which was filled with pulled pork, while I got the Cheesecake Crepe ($7.95). Their website cites that "Japanese crepes are slightly thinner, a little bit crispier and easier to hold than their French friends." We both found the crepe to be a bit underdone, as it was pretty flimsy and already broken before eating. I don't think was due to the crepe getting soggy from the fillings. We weren't able to hold our crepes, and instead, we asked for a plate and ate it with a knife and fork. My friend didn't like the pulled pork, but I thought it was decent and the sauce was sweet. The Cheesecake Crepe was pretty light, and despite the imperfections in the crepe, was satisfying. Not sure if I'd give them another try, but it's worth checking out if you're looking for dessert in the area.

    Ok people, there isn't much I say go to Winnipeg for (other than a Jets game), but, this gem of a place is one of those places where if you ever find yourself in the Peg, get your ass here and get ready for a party in your mouth. I'll set the scene, skip this paragraph if you don't care. A whole day at Winnipeg Stadium leads us to wanting, no needing, something sweet, refreshing, and totally not stadium food. We need fresh, we need savory, we need sweet, and we want to feel like pigs after. Well, this place is all of the above and then some. Walk in, the menu will be on your right reading from savory to sweet. I have no idea why I thought we'd need 3 of these between the two of us, but, I did. Savory: The Uptown (pay homage to Minnesota, yeah buddy) - Seasoned chicken, avocado and housemade citrus chipotle mayo and lettuce inside a crepe. Sweet: Fruitella - Nutella and bananas. Sweet 2: Cheesecake Crepe - Lemon cream cheese filling, mixed berry coulis, more bananas and graham wafers. Get a number, sit in anticipation. I mean, you see those nature shows where an old Wildebeest is on it's last legs and a pride of lions are just to attack. That is the kind of anticipation we had for our number to be called. The people next to us were lucky they ordered after us, or I might have stole theirs. Then, "number 218". I hurdle chairs and stiff arm kids to get to the counter. Lets go through this so I can relive this, I'll try not to cry... The uptowner: Oh my god. Yeah, that good. The crepe itself is perfectly sweet, the chicken is amazingly juicy and tender, and that mayo with avacado is the refreshing kick on the palate that would make me fight a bear for this thing. It's incredible to the last bite. The fruitella: truth be told, the woman would only let me have two bites because I threatened to not give it back after the second. Those two bites were incredible. Chocolate, with the sweetness of the crepe and the fresh bananas, just amazing. The cheesecake: Hold on a sec, need a moment to gather myself. *Deep breath* ok, it's one of the best things you can eat in Winnipeg. So amazingly perfect with a crazy flavor spectrum. Ctirusy from the lemon cream cheese, the berries give it a tarty sweetness, the bananas hit you with that sweet fruity flavor, the grahams then give you a different sweetness and a new texture, and oh yeah, the crepe itself is another sweet flavor! It's a messy on, get some napkins, put a bib on, huddle yourself in the corner and wreck this thing! Ok. Plus the service is awesome at the front desk and the location offers great people watching on Osborne (which is like Lyndale in Uptown Minneapolis). Only place I'd say you HAVE to go to, especially if you need sweets or savory, or anything.

    uptown crepe (chicken, avocado, citrus mayo)
    DineoutGal A.

    I haven't been back since they first opened in late 2009 because really, I'm not a huge fan of crepes. And I remember not really liking the thick sweet crepe that I had with my savoury crepe. I know the Japanese crepes are thicker and sweeter than the French kind. But really wanted this place to make separate crepe batters for sweet and savoury items. Not sure when they made the change, but the crepe batter today was definitely way thinner and less sweet than the one I remember. The crepe tasted way better and less heavy so I was happy with that. I had the "uptown crepe" ($7.50) which has chicken, avocado and a citrus mayo. I liked this one though I felt the citrus was a bit overpowering but overall a good light summery crepe. My bf had the "hot chick" ($5.95) which was a veggie crepe with sweet potatoes and chickpeas - he really liked the blend of spices in there. The lemonade ($2.95) is freshly squeezed though way too tart for me but my bf really liked it. They now serve a multigrain crepe for an extra $1.50, which seems like a pricey add on considering that most places wouldn't charge you more for order whole grain bread vs white bread. Anyways, none were available the day we were there so I didn't get to try it but my bf said the multigrain crepe is pretty good so I'll take his word for it. Service is not the fastest there and the staff don't seem to reflect the cheery whimsical feel of the restaurant unfortunately. Not sure what happened to the free wifi but I couldn't get access as it was locked and I was too lazy to ask because they had a huge line up.

    Farmer's Market Crepe and Southern Comfort Crepe both on whole wheat.

    When Hawaii Kai opened up and I read that it served Poke, I could not resist to try it. I love Poke…read moreand unfortunately, Winnipeg is seriously lacking in Poke options (I believe Chosabi is the only other place that offers Poke). Hawaii Kai is located inside Cityplace mall. It is a take-out spot, catering to the city's downtown office workers. Their menu includes a variety of 'healthy' Hawaiian and Asian cuisine, including salads, smoothies and bubble-tea. I ordered the salmon poke bowl. It came out to about $15. The portion was relatively small for what I expected. The salmon had a strange type of mayo spice on it. The crunch flakes used were reminiscent of cheap Frito corn chips. Overall I was disappointed. I was looking forward to Hawaii Kai as an alternative to Freshii (also located in the mall), but with it being much more expensive for sub-par quality, I think I will be pass on this in the future and head back to Freshii for their rice bowls (I know this is not an apples to apples comparison). This scores 3 out of 5 mainly because of its location and it being the second spot in Winnipeg to offer Poke.

The place is really cute and the owners were kind. The first time I went there, I tried their taro freeze with taro jelly, which comes in a large size. It's topped with whipped cream. The taro flavour is on the milder side and tasted more milky. The owners were open to suggestions and improving their drinks so I suggested to make the taro flavour a bit more stronger and they were susceptible to the feedback. I was able to try their mango pudding which was really good! It tasted just like the ones you would find at the Chinese restaurant at dim sum. The second time I visited, I got their tofu pudding with ginger syrup which is served warm. The tofu pudding was silky smooth. Would have loved for it to come with more syrup but overall it still tasted great. The owner suggested I try it with coconut milk so he gave me some to add to it and I liked it. It was my first time trying tofu pudding this way. I also got to try the tropical fruit tea which was quite good. I tried it without any sugar adjustments and it is on the sweeter side so I would suggest getting it at probably 70% sugar, but if you prefer it to be sweet than at 100% it's perfect for you. The caramel flan was also really good as well. Overall, I would highly recommend coming to try them out!

If you're not willing to go to Panda Tea or Chatime (both quite far from Osborne), this place is probably the best substitute out there for tea. I had the $10.99 lunch special, which consisted of a waffle sandwich and an iced fusion tea. I went with a waffle dog and lychee iced fusion tea. The waffle was quite savoury, but the concept of two waffles with a smokie sausage...didn't seem to fit right. The end product literally looked like a sausage sandwiched between two waffles. It still tasted good though, which I guess is what counts. The iced fusion tea was decent too. Definitely not the best place to dine in the Village, but a good place to sit back and chat/do some work while having a bubble tea and a sandwich.

They could have used this opportunity to ask what we were in the mood for or a recommendation. If this happens when we come back, there will be no third chances. One thing that needs to be dumped is the incredibly tacky 'buzzer' you're given to let you know your order is ready. Picture something you get at the chain restaurants when you're waiting for a seat. In such a tiny cafe, this is completely unnecessary. A good idea would be to bring orders to patrons since this would seem a better fit than a cheesy mall food court set up.

Would definitely recommend this place especially if you just need a quick meal!

This dollar store has taken over from where Office Depot used to be. Across from Dollarama was this Happy Lemon bubble tea store. I hadn't seen a Happy Lemon store in eons. A Yelp GTA experience drew my attention to the one in Vaughan, near Vaughan Mills. This franchise did not do well in Ontario and has since shuttered all its stores in the greater Toronto area. It was nice seeing that Happy Lemon was thriving in Winnipeg. It was a hot day. I was in need of some hydration, so I walked over to get some bubble tea. I got to see the mascot again. She was cool. Staff were friendly. I asked the man what drink sizes were available. Large is the smallest size. XL is next, which is a litre. There's also a two-litre size, but it depends on the type of drink that you are getting. I ordered an XL watermelon green tea with rainbow jelly and less ice. Sadly, I couldn't adjust the sugar. The man was too preoccupied with his conversation with his peer that he first charged me for a large. I paid with a credit card by tapping. I then looked at the receipt and realized that he made a mistake. I had to tap again to now upgrade to an extra large. It didn't take long for my drink to be made. It looked so pretty when it was handed to me. I thanked both folks and headed to my vehicle with a fairly hefty drink. The watermelon green tea was extremely refreshing and cold. I would have liked this drink less sweet. However, it wasn't gross. It was the natural sweetness of the watermelon coupled with the chewy rainbow jelly that made me forget about the sweetness after a minute. The toppings list was extensive. It had your regular salted cheese, various popping boba, and lychee jelly. You could also get cream puffs, various popping balls (kiwi, pineapple, and passionfruit). crystal jelly ball, coffee jelly, purple rice, and more. I felt like my eyeballs were getting bigger as I continued to read the list. One word: Wow! This store makes bubble waffles. The flavours are vast, from Oreo, to blueberry.
