All of the aforementioned reasons most likely led to my hesitation in trying Brewster's Pub even though I've passed by it countless times. I even avoided it to eat at Lucky Horse nearby. Today, Ma and Bubble Girl joined me for lunch. We were searching for a Japanese restaurant in the Newton area that I had not tried yet. We ended up at Tokyo Sushi Express and seeing how I just ate at the Scott Road location the day before, I was not that interested. However, there was

I don't know about you; but if I'm at a pub, I'm ordering wings, sans alcohol or not! We decided to share an order of their Salt & Pepper Dry Wings. We were quite happy with the amount of well-seasoned wings for $9.95. Slightly on the dry side (I guess that's fine given they are dry wings),


For myself, I ordered one of their specials - the Cajun Ribeye Steak with mash potatoes and Caesar Salad for $10.99. A strange choice since I already had steak the night before... Okay, I'm not really sure why there was a big BBQ sauce slick atop the steak since it's a Cajun steak. Whatever, the steak was cooked a perfect medium-rare and was quite tender. I thought the BBQ sauce detracted from the steak itself. The mash potatoes seemed like they were freshly

Well, it looks like a random pub adventure turned out to be pretty good. At least for the dishes we tried, they all turned out pretty well and at a reasonable price. Unlike some other pubs, Brewster's is well-maintained and clean. Furthermore, the service we got was efficient and friendly. The only issue was that the table of men beside us were a bit curious as to why I was taking pictures of the food with my massive flash (it's dark inside). Think of it, it's not a usual sight to have someone snapping photos inside a pub...
The Good:
- Good portions
- Decent food
- Reasonably priced
The Bad:
- Don't expect gourmet food
- It's still a pub, so the ambiance is not for everyone

I know this might be stereotyping but, given the bad rap of certain parts of Surrey, who knows, they might be wondering if you are taking pictures of them!
But, back to the food, about the chicken wings, one of these days we should do a chicken wings run. On a Sunday, we can do Wings Pub and Grill (I have a post of this place in the queue), House of Wings down the road and, keep driving down to New West, The Thirsty Duck (not sure how good/bad it is). Of course, suggestions to other (nearby?) places would be good as well!
About Sysco, unfortunately, it is one of those necessary evils for some restaurants. A lot of other restaurants can do better, but there are times, they are the only option...
Hmm, I guess you should change the name of your blog to Sherman's Police Adventures
