I doubt there will actually be one in the store. No signage up for Jollibee but signs up for the rest of the in store eatery’s.

Jollibee has to be about the most underwhelming FF restaurant around, just about everything on the menu can be found better elsewhere, it would be like Salisbury House opening a restaurant in Montreal, it would close in a week!

I suspect you are probably not their target market!

Chicken Chef.. 570 Portage Avenue Downtown & 2539 Main St. were opened not too long back and I think the newest one is to open St Vital? Possibly St Annes Road if memory serves, not far from Ch Delight?

Seafood City usually has Jollibee so if the Seafood City Garden City location does not, that would be deviating from the norm for them.

There is a new Chicken Chef opening in Island Lakes, sign is already up and supposed to be opening later this month.

The chicken from Chicken Chef reminds me of the chicken you can get from a Swanson’s frozen dinner.

That's OK Stella's, I haven't eaten in your now left-leaning restaurant for the past 12 mos. Not going again. Was tired of your high prices for food.

[bomberjet]

That's right. Go enjoy those nut case right wing restaurants lol

Right wing clam chowda. mmmmmmmmm. haha

Okay. okay. I'll take the left chicken wing, you take the right wing.

Like I've said before, I don't really agree or get it. If the working conditions are shit, go work elsewhere. If they want too unionize, go right ahead I guess. I go there once in a while. Mexican breakfast is good.

[pegcity]

I like breakfast

Taking that kind of stand because this company had a couple of bad managers, who are now gone BTW, is foolish. It just puts these newly organized employees, the ones that complained in the first place, at only further peril.

I bet all the Toronto, Monreal, and Vancouver forum guys say "if you want a quick laugh, head over to the MB section and watch them bicker over Boston Pizza and Chicken Chef" hahaha!

Hey...give us some credit over here in Winnipeg. We also argue whether a curb and sidewalk shrank by 7" or 12".

More plans revealed for The Wood (Norwood Hotel) that look pretty sweet. Target opening October 24.

No. My response was to LilZebra's comment

I have heard that the Fionn McCool’s on Regent will be reopening. Supposedly the owner of the Grant Ave location is taking over the space.

Hey I'm one of you guys!

I'm not some Vancouverite arguing over whether oversized yoga classes in the park (when everyone should be working) are cultural appropriation or not

The pros but also cons of unions have been well known... but yes, you misunderstood his post.

Best of luck. My experience there was gross food, overpriced and ill informed servers..Hope they remedy everything.

Apparently the original franchisee was buying ingredients from unapproved sources and had their franchise pulled.

Glad to hear it is reopening.
