Restaurant #33 Pizza Hut - February 17th 2012

We went to Pizza Hut. There was Darren, Erick, Stephan, Stephane and me. The premise of going to Pizza Hut was that they had the stuffed crust pizza that came with bites all around the pizza and Stephane wanted to try it (he did). Hearing stuffed-crust pizza made me salivate, as I was remembering those commercials where they make the pizza crust look delicious and gooey with all that extra cheese, so I was excited about going. Then we got there. I'm not against chain restaurants, but I think that I just expected that since this was a pizza restaurant that they'd make their own crust. A pizza is pretty much nothing if the crust tastes like cardboard. I understand that they probably want the pizzas to taste the same from restaurant to restaurant, but couldn't they just use the same crust recipes? And having pre-made crusts not available in all sizes is a bit odd too... Needless to say, I was disappointed with my pizza, and not even all the extra processed cheese that was stuffed into the crust could make up for it.

Restaurant #32 Relish - February 10th 2012

Stephane, Darren, Carine and I went to Relish. The burgers were good, the sides were good, but the one thing that gets old really quickly is the staff yelling at the customers "welcome to Relish!" and "what do you relish?" especially if you're in there for about an hour/hour and a half and there were probably at least 20 different customers that came in..

Also, it happened to be Pierre's birthday, so we gave him a shout-out in the pics :)
We all hope you had a good day Pierre!

Restaurant #31 Blue Olive - February 3rd 2012

Today we're going to the Blue Olive, there's Erick, Stephan and me (as far as I know..)

That was everyone for Blue Olive. It was really tasty. I had the Mediterranean chicken that came with couscous and a choice of 3 salads. Stephan had the same and Eric had the other special (I think it might have been pork??)
