Pizza

Did the Mother's Pizza in Waterloo close? It looked awfully quiet when going by today at around 4:30 pm.

Yes. It is apparently going to be a pub ... Weber Public House, or something like that.

As a resident of the area, I have high hopes that the new place is good. I was very much hoping that when the Asian buffet place closed down at Weber and Bridgeport, someone would reopen it as a pub. Sadly, a gym went in, removing the brand new kitchen. Don't know how well the gym is doing but I never see very many vehicles there. So seeing as my hopes were dashed for that location (which is much closer for me than the former Mother's), I am hopeful that maybe the new pub will be worth my regular patronage.

Is that just a poor location for a restaurant? There have been a lot of different places there. Last time I was there was a few years ago, it was a Benny's I think.

How is the Mother's in Kitchener doing? It seems to be busy the two times I went.

Restaurant business is tough business....perhaps I am getting old though, I just notice that food isn't the same as it once was, less pride. It sucks that if I want a good steak I have to go to Costco to buy the meet and pan fry it (or BBQ in the summer). I hate cooking steak because it's a difficult thing that I have never mastered, either cooked too much or too little. I just take issue that my crappy home cooking is better than restaurant, unless I am going for Chinese (Canadian style, obviously) or Indian food, since I can't good either.
