I bought a bottle of horsey to go with an outside round i had cooked and shaved for roast beef on safeway onion buns a couple weeks ago, that's how I knew. I was just looking over the condiment aisle and there it was. I was tickled pink. I used to love the Arbys roast beef sandwiches but am rarely able to get one these days.

I believe near Garden City mall that a new Arby's is under construction.    I'd assume it's near completion since it's seemed like they started work on it nearly a year ago.

I spend most of my time in Thompson these days, but it's good to know that Arby's will be around whenever I come back to the city.

Any details on where? I drive down McPhillips all the time and I haven't seen anything like this? Is it on the Leila side? I see weekly updates on Reddit about the one underway near Seasons of Tuxedo but this is the first mention I have heard about the Garden City.

Yeah I want to know too I take the bus home near garden city and I don't recall anything new going in unless it's across from the mall (either near.HD or the JYSK) or the other side with everything else

It appears that I was incorrect and was mixed up with when 5 Guys was being build by Garden City. 

 

The new Arby's location is apparently being constructed  in the seasons of Tuxedo!    As if that area doesn't already have a million restaurants already.

That area is normally a test ground for US originated businesses even though Arby's has been here before (the Waverly end of the city is bigger than my end of the city)

So I decided that I wanted to come back to Underdogs for my birthday because I have explained how it's a nostalgic gamers dream I actually got to have the mozza sticks they're so gooey

 

I had the big Ched with fries (I gotta figure out how to do those fries from scratch)

My Earl of Sandwich experience:

Me - Ooh, we have an Earl of Sandwich now. I should check it out.

Also Me - Didn't.

and Boston Pizza has unveiled it Holiday Menu...it's well I should be excited for the Brie dip but I'm not also I'm not a fan of Sticky Toffee pudding

[iHeart]

So this year I'm not doing scratch hot chocolate (I didn't have any planned because I thought I would be able to pull off making hot chocolate bombs from scratch.....turns out I could pull them out of the molds okay but I can't seem to even out the edges and that's kind of a deal breaker) I also made brownies from the mix from one of Dolly's lines

[iHeart]

KFC has released its holiday menu and they have brought back the double down as the festive double down yeah that's in the hell no pile

[iHeart]

Belle's kitchen and music hall has their signage up I didn't expect a big neon sign 

[iHeart]

God movie theatre food is expensive these days nevermind the cost of a ticket, sure I could use the extra scene points but still

You mean $30 for a popcorn , soda, and one candy is not reasonable?  

I now understand why my Mom always would bring her big purse to the movies when I was a child.    We continue that tradition as I don't feel like dropping $100+ dollars on popcorn and drinks when instead we can go to Dollarama/WalMart and get a whole lot more of snacks for only a fraction of the price.
