The fact that Cathay House was still open up until a few years ago really does show that even the lowest quality and dirtiest of places can still find customers.  

 

Breaded veal cutlets, fries, beef gravy and a beer at Cathay House. If you never had this, you're not a true Winnipeger. 😅

Yup. Replace Beer with a nice glass of dry White Wine and you got yourself a deal fellow true Pegger.

Yes, but I'd have the wine before the meal, not during.

All I'm familiar with is them being fined for health violations nearly every single time for 10 years straight (when I started looking at the list online)

It was truly impressive at how many huge fines they had for sanitation,rodent infestation, keeping food at poor temperatures.

I too must turn in my Winnipeg card, Cathay House was just never on my radar. Now “special green tea” at Sumhay at 3am, that’s something I am familiar with.

Worse than that- it is mediocre with occasional "sort of okays".

[FrostyWinnipeg]

Pizza Hut now charging an additional $2 for a "recipe" pizza(ex Supreme) on their $5 $5 $5 special :@

 

[Brandon]

Boston Pizza is good when they have the kids cards ,  otherwise if it's only myself and the wife we try to avoid since the prices are hefty for heated up frozen food.

I'm happy with underpriced and overrated.

apparently the thing I shared was actually chicken parm ravioli, and the Carbonara Pizza and the Mac and Cheese 5 is getting an extended life

so I tried TH's flatbread pizza's today....I don't even remember anything....well at least they don't take that long to bake it's in that oven for about a minute it's the prep that takes longer

[iHeart]

I am 99% sure it's the melts that are available in the US already (when I said "Never Again" I was referring to the pull-a-parts)

Those are at my local Pizza Hut....I think. There is a poster facing an outside window, with a piece of tape stating the price on it. No information on the app or in the building about  them. If Pizza Hut cannot put any effort into a new product, then what's my incentive to try it?
