Burrito Bar Food Review- Oshawa Centre

               First of all, I'm sorry about the lack of posts on here from working on Billy's Podcast stuff to preparing for the next season of Everything About Reality TV to real life stuff I have been very busy person indeed. Yesterday I had the privilege of trying out Burrito Bar which I have been meaning to actual try out for a very long time actually. I have been saying I am going to try it out and it took me about a year or two to actually get the nerve. However where am I going with this? I was suppose to originally suppose to go to Subway, which was my initial first go to place but Subway was a zoo yesterday and I was looking at the menu for the Burrito Bar and I thought huh... Interesting so I decided since there wasn't many and yes it was around Lunch hour when I went for lunch as we were out to the Generals Training camp and we were in between sessions in the day.  So the food side of things, what did I get? I told the lady I have never been to their fine establishment at the mall and they guided me right through it without any issues. I give the service definitely 10 out of 10 not my usual 5 out of 5. Now to the food portion as you guys came by this post to read about the food review not have me ramble like I am right now.... smh. I ordered a Chicken Quesadilla with cheese, onion and tomatoes on it. I also added to the side salsa and Sour Cream as well. I would give it a 10 out of 10 not the usual rating as it went beyond my expectations and they sure as heck deserve the extra credit when credit is due and in this case that was today!


                  Now would I go back there again in the very nearby future? Yes! The next time I am there I plan on trying something different as there is not just one thing on the list there is a ton to choose from, different meats too from Chicken to Pork to Beef so there is definitely options I can go with and trust me I will be definitely be trying something different. I also think there is burritos as well that is on the list so I am definitely going to be trying that out down the road. So either way there will be a new review for quite some time and yes I may start doing monthly reviews but recently it hasn't been that, it's been twice a month or more especially when I was away on holidays but hey it is content for this very blog and Eric gave me this idea so I am nothing but grateful for the idea. Gives me content. I had to do this post before concluding the podcast series and I will get this done don't worry. Hope you guys enjoyed this review as I enjoy writing these for you guys. I will talk to you guys tomorrow on a Throwback Thursday Story!

South Street Burger Food Review

              Originally I was suppose to be going to the movies but due to the weather and not feeling safe with it thunder and lighting yesterday, both Eric and I stayed in town but pretty much made the best out of it and hung at the mall which was technically fine with me plus he had some issues with his walking which was more of my concern. Now he gave me this idea for today's post which is South St. Burger here in my hometown at the local mall. Now I was nervous at the start to know how this is going to taste, whether it was under cooked or overcooked but no, it was non of those actually. Now I had the Aussie Burger which yes Aussie as a burger from Australia. So on this burger there was egg, yes egg which was a little overcooked as it was brown by that could of been from the butter. Anyways bacon was nice and crispy. Burger was nice and juicy and cooked up medium as I always like it. Not Raaaw as Chef Ramsey would say. Soft bun action as usual which I always like to have and I think they toasted the bun and I actually like it a bit toasted actually! Now the service was great, they took my order they got my soft drink very quickly on the tray. It only took a few minutes as they cooked the burger fresh so that is probably the burger was nice and tender when I bit into it. Now fair warning it was a bit greasy but still very good burger and ate every single bite. The Price was around $13.66 which is so close to 14 bucks, so fair warning it was a bit on the pricey side of things but still worth it in the end.


                 Now the rating on South St. Burger is definitely 5 out of 5 all day long. It is worth it like I said and the wait time is worth it as well. I will indeed be back and plan on doing another review down the road and something different down the road that will be determined maybe next month. Anyways I do have some plans for other reviews such as the Rib Fest I was thinking about attending and also in the fall I do plan on doing Popeyes etc but that will be decided later and I will do a list blog eventually. Anyways I enjoyed the meal and it is well worth the small wait and the money and I will be back, I will definitely recommend it to friends and family. I will go the entire 9 yards. I think the fact they staff there overheard me say "food review" they ensured my experience was really good and trust me it was really well worth it and I was nowhere near disappointed, I was highly excited on every last bite of the burger. I honestly did not think egg on a burger would go together but it did. I just wanted to go back for another bite right to the end. I am not overly a picky person and open to new things and this burger, was inspired to try from Eric as he had that about a month or so ago so that is the reason I wanted to try it.

Had a Not So Great Customer Service Experience....

                  So back on Monday I had rather not a great experience with the Dollar Store... I went in there with my friends on a Monday afternoon and at the end of the visit they had to go to the dollar store and I wanted to pick up some more books as you know I have a book with me when at events for Chris B On The Web to take notes of the event and what not. I got to the cashier to obviously pay for the book as I only wanted to get one. They said there is no bar code they should be in a package of 3, I told them there isn't books in packages, they were separate from each other. So their staff went to check and I said screw it and left and I haven't been back in there since and I will even mention if I ever plan to go back in there in the nearby future. 


                  The girl at the cashier I do not know if she was laughing at me or just like.... Uh OK, what is his problem, I didn't know as I left quite quickly as I was extremely mad with them, I didn't manage to look back as I left very quickly like I said before. I really don't care at this point, I moved on and Staples and Walmart will have my business from here on out as I just did not like the way things were done. How in the world am I suppose to know it comes in a package of 3? Like seriously I do not have x ray vision whatsoever so it is hard for me to know that it is suppose to come in a package of 3. Heck I never unwrapped it whatsoever, I felt like that was their insinuating but I know they weren't, it has to be one of their employees that did it and weren't properly trained to what has to be done or they were new staff or staff working for this summer only. 


                   Doesn't matter, I reached out to the corporate office to mention of this mishap or issue that I had and that I was not happy with the way things were done. They reached back out to me and they said they will look into it and deal with the situation. I do hope they actually leave it in a package of 3 with a bar code to scan it as that what this entire situation and hopefully this problem will be resolved but as for me ever going into that dollar store it will not be happening, I plan to going to another store, Walmart or Staples at this point which is disappointing to me.
