RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 03-25-2015 CBC reports that Imbibe will not be looking to re-open in a new location. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/kitchener-waterloo/imbibe-to-leave-themuseum-location-won-t-reopen-anytime-soon-1.3008805 RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - plam - 03-25-2015 (03-25-2015, 12:28 PM)ookpik Wrote:(03-25-2015, 09:37 AM)panamaniac Wrote: The Record notes today that Rise and Shine Bagels in Waterloo will be closing later this spring. Speaking of City Café, I sort of like them but their croissants took last place in a taste test that we organized. (Ambrosia was pretty universally chosen first). City Café's croissants even scored below supermarket croissants.

RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - greybird - 03-25-2015 Best bagels in the region = Wood Fire Bagels on Kingsway Drive RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - schooner77 - 03-25-2015 I most definitely agree with Wood Fire. I hit Vincenzos first thing every Saturday morning to get my weekend treat. Great Montreal Style Bagels. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - Drake - 03-25-2015 Woodfire RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - rangersfan - 03-25-2015 Really unfortunate news about Imbibe closing, only made it there once but I really enjoyed the atmosphere and beer choices. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - Pheidippides - 03-28-2015 Taco Farm has opened a stand in the lower market at the Kitchener Market.

When I saw their sign up last week, I thought that it didn't seem a good fit for the main floor of the Market. Passing by today, however, I see that they are selling lots of products like Mexican/Central American-style cheeses, salsas, dulce de leche, etc so it actually is a good addition to the Market selection. Their hot food smells really good too! By the way, another good newer vendor at the Market is "Soup Surreal". They sell frozen portions of a variety of freshly-made soups and the ones I've tried are delicious. The containers ($8) are large enough to feed two, so the price is quite attractive as well. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - neonjoe - 03-28-2015 A second local South St Burger Co. location looks like it will be opening in the Sunrise Shopping Centre in the same strip as Quiznos, Starbucks and Payless. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - JoeKW - 03-28-2015 Why can't we get a good burger joint like Smashburger or Five Guys RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - ookpik - 03-28-2015 Well since Five Guys now have at least a dozen locations in the Golden Horseshoe area there's hope for Waterloo region. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - BuildingScout - 03-28-2015 Every so often I run into businesses with the weirdest hours. Two that come to mind right now are 1) Nougat in Uptown which closes at 6pm on weekdays, right about the time when people start arriving at the mall after work and/or dinner, and 2) The Belmont in Belmont Village, which closes at 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Every time I've been there for dinner I've seen them turn away several groups of customers arriving at that time. What gives? RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - JoeKW - 03-28-2015 I chalk it up to small town sensibilities/lifestyles. If they're small businesses run by a single family it can be hard to have extended hours. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 03-29-2015 Where can you go out to dinner in K-W after 9pm? Seriously, I want to know. Having to dine at 5pm because you're going to CITS or whatever is a drag, and embarrassing when you have company from out of town. |
