xmastime restaurant visits and a trip to Sobeys

We went to The Tea Party.  My glass was kind of dirty (drip marks all over the outside).  I hope they washed it.  This is rosehip tea.

This is High Tea for 3 of us. A puny amount of food, but it was only $15 per person unlike Chateau Laurier which is like $35.

Sobeys has a lot of Jamie Oliver frozen meals.  Who calls fish sticks BRILLIANT?  Also on the negative side, I have read in the gossip sites that he does not wash his hands after using the restroom.

I got 2 kinds of cookies from Sobeys.  Friggin ripoff.  They were disgusting! Not made of butter.

A visit to Authentic Vietnamese Pho House.  It was OK. P01 rare beef soup.

Went to The Waverley.  The food was OK (not even as good as Swiss Chalet) and the service was poor.

Ogdensburg holiday oddities part 4

Doritos Loaded.  I did not dare to buy this.

Strange sodas: lemon/lime/coconut and blackberry ginger ale

Pringles Cheeseburger and Kickin Chicken Taco, white peppermint M&Ms, Peppermint Marshmallow Circus Peanuts

Company's Coming

Vanilla crack, recipe from Joanne Fluke mystery novel/cookbook.  I was testing the recipe and it failed to harden AGAIN.

Lay's Old Fashioned Bar-B-Q chips: They taste familiar and give a weird aftertaste at the back of your tongue.

Lindt Pineapple.  Pretty good and sweet

Testing shortbread recipe and icing recipe from Company's Coming cookbook.  I used gluten free Robin Hood flour, though, so it had a weird taste, kind of whole-wheat-ish.

This chocolate marshmallow roll is another recipe from the Company's Coming cookbook.  Why does the recipe call for 1 raw egg?!?!?

Union Jack pub and Indian snacks

Union Jack pub.  Fish tacos. Brockville, Ontario.

1/2 a slice of millionaire pie

Got these at Vashali Indian grocery store.  The Lays Magic Masala chips were too spicy but the crazy Badam drink was alright (milk, rose and almond flavour). It was like drinking lumpy pepto bismol.
