Shoeless Joes- Buffalo Chicken on A Wrap Food Review

            Now I admit I wasn't planning a food review honestly as you all know I was in Toronto for the Jays game and I rather squash that part of the night as I wasn't overly thrilled how the game ended and yes we left early as the game got out of control. That is all I wanna say but it was nice to see all the young guys play honestly. Now to the food review side of things which we went to Shoeless Joe's for dinner which is right along the harborfront in Toronto. So what did I have besides a glass of milk which didn't really taste too good but that's definitely not the point of this post of me complaining about milk. More then likely it was 2% which is not the one that I normally have which is 1% most of the time. So besides the milk, I had Buffalo Chicken on a wrap with fries on the side. Now you probably think hey Chris that is sort of healthy? Yes it was minus I think the chicken was breaded tho so that part wasn't so much but the rest of it was healthy. However it was a very good dish and I really did enjoy it and it was a little hotter then I thought really but still it was very delicious one way or another so it was worth having. Now the fries reminded me of the McDonald's french fries which were thin and long but they were really good as well. Little on the salty side for me as I just like a little bit of salt not too much. I also think they added a little of pepper but there was nothing wrong with it honestly but it was just a little excessive on the salt but overall still a great experience. Now my mom gave my dad and I her deep fried pickle which was really good and I have had this before at the Campus Pub when I was a college student between 2010 and 2012. 


              The rating for the wrap is a definite 10 out 10, not a 5 out of 5 as it exceeded expectations and I really wasn't expecting a spiciness to the Buffalo Chicken. Now for the french fries I wasn't overly happy due to the fact I felt like it was a little over salted so unfortunately I am giving it 3 out of 5 but still tasted good but it was a little over salted. Now the deep fried pickle was the best and like I said I have had this before so it is not my first rodeo when I first had it so it was worth a 10 out of 10 not my usual 5 out of 5 rating like I normally do on these food reviews. Overall experience was a 5 out of 5 as the server, she was really great to us and always helpful especially with out meals being a bit on the messy side but we had enough napkins and wet ones too to get our hands cleaned once we were finished. Was a great start to a very not so good ball game  as I thought the Jays would of won this and sweeping the Red Sox but it is what it is and hey the Jays still won the series 2 - 1 one way or another.

Toronto Blue Jays Thoughts for Week

                First of all I can say this has been the most frustrating season for the Toronto Blue Jays with injuries and not hitting the ball. But since making trades and/or getting these young guys, they seem to be winning a tad bit more but they lost the series against the Rays but they won the series before that which is great. They sure went hot on the bats but you have to remember, the Blue Jays are now a Young team and have to develop. We are just like the Toronto Maple Leafs a young team and I am glad the Jays are taking that same approach and it will be an exciting next few years for the Jays. They are needing a better bullpen, I mean Biagini has indeed gotten better but Tepera I have not been pleased with. If I was the one to make trades, I would still get Biagini and Tepera traded as they haven't been very consistent this season and I have been saying this most of the season to trade em away. I know I have said I have turned the game off when the score got ridiculously high and the Jays getting slaughtered but I just didn't wanna watch it anymore... So frustrating I tell you! 


                 I know the bullpen has been the main problem but not just that is injuries are one of the other factors. Tulo is not back and I have even said it to trade him once hes back next season as he's not played for over an year now and I just do not get it, why the heck they would keep Tulo this entire time and not trade him away after hes been injured majority of the time.  As we just witnessed this past week or so, with the trade of Donaldson, I am glad they are really trying to make moves now and get this team back on trade to hopefully another world series win down the road but time will tell with all these young guys. I like Janssen as Catcher, he's played well both behind the plate and hitting. Also Russell Martin has been playing 3rd base lately and done extremely well at that position. I know being a catcher is definitely hard on the knees and I am glad they are keeping him on the team and putting him out in the infield, which he has done really well, even my mom said so too!
