They cook the meat to order. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - kwliving - 05-30-2017 Got this in email today. Quote:The Bauer Kitchen will be holding their second annual Patio Opening Party this coming Friday June 2, 2017 from 5-8pm. Not sure if it's open to the public, but I would guess so. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - KevinL - 06-22-2017 Matter of Taste will be opening a new location at Factory Square (451 Philip) in Waterloo. https://www.instagram.com/p/BVo_0NIg39s/ RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 06-22-2017 (06-22-2017, 01:53 PM)KevinL Wrote: Matter of Taste will be opening a new location at Factory Square (451 Philip) in Waterloo. https://www.instagram.com/p/BVo_0NIg39s/ This has taken longer than expected. I believe this location will include a roastery? RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - rangersfan - 06-28-2017 The Working Centre has opened a new cafe in Downtown Kitchener at 256 King St East. It also has some supportive housing units and a bike repair shop. http://www.570news.com/2017/06/23/working-centre-open-fresh-grounds-downtown-kitchener/ RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - jwilliamson - 07-01-2017 They missed their Spring opening, but the building is looking good. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 07-01-2017 "Whiskey"? So, some sort of "Bourbon/American cocktail" theme?" Cocktails seem to be the new craft beer in some circles.

RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 07-03-2017 Meanwhile, a rather mediocre review for the "B" (although the restaurant reviews are not exactly a strength of the Record ... ). Personally, I've always enjoyed their food, although the service has tended to be a bit haphazard. https://www.therecord.com/whatson-story/7399157-dining-out-gastropub-b-themuseum-needs-attention-to-detail/ RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - Rainrider22 - 07-03-2017 (07-03-2017, 09:11 AM)panamaniac Wrote: Meanwhile, a rather mediocre review for the "B" (although the restaurant reviews are not exactly a strength of the Record ... ). Personally, I've always enjoyed their food, although the service has tended to be a bit haphazard. I have to say I disagree with the final analysis in this article. Maybe they had an off day. I routinely frequent "B", haircut at the Walper, then to "B" for lunch. I have always found the food very good. The service is always friendly and inviting.. The people there clearly enjoy their work and this is a reflection of the quality of management. I hope people will dismiss the article and try for themselves.. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - schooner77 - 07-04-2017 Yes, we frequent the "B" as well. It has a creative menu, and a nice rotation of taps. Service has always been friendly. I've always been a little skeptical of the Record reviews, but people should not base their decisions completely on one opinion. TripAdvisor, Yelp etc.. are at least populated with a variety, spanning a lot more variables. RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - panamaniac - 07-04-2017 D'Amato has a piece in the Record about whether or not a regular supermarket is needed Downtown, with a brief review of existing options. There is a suggestion (from a "community advocate") of the former Stantec office in Market Square as a potential space for a supermarket, which seemed an interesting idea to me, although some might think it further east than would be ideal. https://www.therecord.com/opinion-story/7404457-a-grocery-dilemma-in-central-kitchener-d-amato/ RE: General Food, Dining and Nightlife News - timc - 07-04-2017 Given the history of Market Square, I'm skeptical that one could make anything work in that location. |
