So I went in and my first impressions were:<br />A nice cozy place.<br />A not so nice lady.<br />An empty restaurant.<br /><br />We asked if it was ok to sit on the table of four because we were caring a few shopping bags with us, but she said: No, they are for customers... she didn't even bother to say sorry.<br /><br />While looking at the menu I notice at the bottom of the page it said: NO SHARING and in the third page it said 3 dollar charge for any split. I mean what is wrong with that? I usually order lots of dishes to share just like Chinese restaurant :/<br /><br />I already wanted to get out the place, but anyway we still order a fettuccine and a burger because we felt uncomfortable being there.<br /><br />The noddle didn't taste that good, I mean I can get a powder version and make it my self and it will still taste the same :/<br /><br />The burger looked good, but it didn't live up to the expectations. The bread was nice, but the burger had no flavor. The fries were brown and mushy ..I wonder what kind of potato was.<br /><br />I still finish my dish because I was hungry, but my gf could not eat more of the fettuccine. I asked for the bill and pay...and after saying thank you to her .. she didn't even bother saying anything. <br />After we left we continue shopping and when passing back 1 hour later the restaurant remain empty...<br /><br />I love kerrisdale, but I'll never go back to that place..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524766856706642380.post-18168593355766415722010-07-12T09:40:17.087-07:002010-07-12T09:40:17.087-07:00LOL LR!

Rick Astley,...Wow you are dating yourself, Sherman. Rick Astley, LOL.<br /><br />If that was the mid-to-late 80s, if you ever wandered into Kerrisdale Cameras and noticed some geeky Chinese sales guy enthusiastically peddling photo gear, that was yours truly, LOL.<br /><br />Kerrisdale definitely has gone through quite a transformation. But in some ways it still is what it was. Like Avenue Grill for example. We happened to be in "K" this past week, just strolling and getting an ice cream from McD's. It felt nostalgic, seeing the new stores juxtaposed with the old stores that I recall from the 80s. I used to buy a lot of tennis gear from the sports store where Nike is now (was a branch of Cyclone Taylor's Source for Sports).<br /><br />Good times.LotusRapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04996696895446779820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524766856706642380.post-54728189792339457992010-07-08T10:28:45.844-07:002010-07-08T10:28:45.844-07:00...she wants to dance with me... woah woah yah.........she wants to dance with me... woah woah yah... ...there's a girl, I've been meaning...
