The Bell

Monday was a day that will live in Milton Ontario's history. The Grand Opening of the Taco Bell/KFC combo store, or as I call it "The greatest place on Earth". Over the past 3 days I've been doing my best to sample as much of the menu as possible, and give some reviews. First off, Rahim is an ass tool. Rahim is one of the young staff members. Dumb as shit. I've had him at the register twice already and I'm pretty sure, he can't read, spell, and doesn't actually know where he is. Also he has the stupidest haircut ever and thinks he's gangster, with his cocked Taco Bell hat. Wear that thing properly jack ass. You're letting all of Taco bell down. Anyway, onto the ratings. I will be rating each product on the "Happy Mexican" scale. The better the food, the happier the Mexicans.

Beef Crucnchwrap Supreme-The first problem with this particular crunchwrap was that the outside tortilla was burnt on one side. The other was fine. I wonder if one of the heat settings on part of the grill is too high? The slight burnt taste was disappointing. Also there was not enough beef filling. 5 Happy Mexicans out of 10

7 Layer Crunchwrap Supreme-This is a new product to the Bell, so even though I was disappointed with the beef crunchwrap I decided to give it a shot. It had the same burnt one side as the beef one. The filling was quite good. 6 Happy Mexicans out of 10

Cheesy Gordita Crunch-Could have used slightly more beef. But was good.
8 out of 10 Happy Mexicans

Double Decker Taco-Lots of Beans between the two tacos. Well constructed.
8 out of 10 Happy Mexicans

Chili Cheese Burrito-Lots of Cheese, could have used a bit more beef.
8 out of 10 Happy Mexicans

Fries Supreme-Again these people appear to be skimping on the beef.
7 out of 10 Happy Mexicans

7 Layer Burrito-I stand by my belief that a good Taco Bell can really be judged by the quality of it's 7 Layer Burrito. As I carefully removed the packaging I gave it the old weight test, in my hand. It seemed quite good. Well stuffed. As I devoured the beast I was content. My one comment would be that it needed a bit more sour cream, but I was very happy with the Guac explosion in my mouth, and many places skimp on the Guac, so this was good.
8 1/2 Happy Mexicans out of 10 (one was a midget).

Spicy Chicken Burrito-The best so far. Healthy amount of rice, and chicken. The tortilla was slightly chewy, but all in all this was the best thing I've eaten.

The Weekend to date

Hello faithful reader. So the Chocolate Bunny weekend started off with a good ole trip to the Brantford Casino on Friday. Maybe a bad idea. The place was a mad house. Absolutely packed. Apparently everyone else had the same idea we did. We put our names on the wait list for poker, but I really didn't intend to play any poker looking at that list. Two of my friends had their names on a 2 lists, and finally got seats at the $5-$10 table 3 hours later. I decided I'd just fool around. Things started off very well at the Price is Right "Plinko" slot machine. Immediately into the Plinko bonus game I managed to drop both my Plinko chips into the centre slot for a cool $100. We moved on to Let it Ride, which is pretty much the only other table game I will play, besides Black Jack. I played Let it Ride, for quite a good while, and ended up down $50. Not bad at all for some good entertainment. As two of my friends finally got seated at Poker, Mr. James Ward and I decided to go for dinner. Dinner was Moose Winooski's, and my lord, the place kicked our asses. The portions of food were very big, and there's was also a giant garlic bread that apparently comes when someone orders steak, that I wasn't expecting. Leaving food on our plates Ward and I felt like we had let ourselves down, but we were both just too full to finish up. We headed back to the Casino, talked to the guys and they asked for 45 minutes more of poker. What was I gonna do for 45 minutes? Back to Plinko. Bad idea. $50 gone in around 3 minutes flat. That sucked. After the Casino it was back to Milton, and the Ivy Arms for a little Karaoke. At first we thought it wasn't going on , as basically no one was there, but the karaoke dude showed up, and soon things were rocking. The highlight of my night was definitely Matthew Prevost singing Don`t Fear the Reaper. There was a lot of air cowbelling going on in the audience.

Yesterday involved a trip to Casa de Comrie, which is always good times. Sean's wonderful wife Janine has never let us down, and the place is filled with good eats. I arrived to find copious amounts of Easter Chocolate (and only the best Laura Secord at that), Fruit platter (with whipped cream), and two homemade quiches. The quiche was fantastic. Sean`s place is where I do most of my video gaming, and on today's schedule was Guitar Hero 2, which has just become available for XBOX 360. The game is the Nuts (which means good). I only attempted songs on "easy" but man, what fun. I could seriously play that game for a long time.

The night was finished up by watching the Toronto Maple Leafs destroy the Montreal Canadiens and crush their Playoff dreams. We still need New Jersey to beat the Islanders today to allow the Leafs to get in the playoffs. That games coupled with the Masters will basically be my afternoon.

Easter

Chocolate. The Resurrection of Christ (depending on what you believe), and a day off work. Such a day should not be wasted, and so it is that we'll be off for the casino very shortly. Texas Hold'em will be the order of the day as long as the wait for a table isn't gigantic. In such an event I'll probably just hit the Black Jack tables. After the casino, I will be performing at the weekly Karaoke at the Ivy Arms Pub. With me will be a new participant, Matt (Solid Gold) Prevost. Matt's premier performance is being eagerly anticipated. I will have full updates on the poker and singing tomorrow. In other news, I hate weather. Honestly, I was really enjoying the spring weather, smoking a cigar outside everyday. When I woke up this morning it was a fricking blizzard outside. Bull Crap!

I got two boxes of cigars from Blair last week. The Oliva Serie G Belicoso is one of the best cigars I have ever smoked. This cigar has to be the best deal in the world. Really. The box cost about $75. That is $3 a cigar. Absolutely unreal. The Oliva's are one of the most respected tobacco growing families in the world. It was only about 10 years ago they started making their own smokes, instead of just selling the tobacco to other makers. To compete in the industry they kept their prices very low. I can't wait to try the Serie O, which is also a critical hit. The other box was of Onyx Reserve Mini Belicosos. I was first interested in trying this cigar a few years ago when it received a 93 rating from Cigar Aficionado. Later that summer, the man himself J. Reid Maxwell and I were talking, only to discover that the Onyx Mini Belicoso was one of his favourites, and that he had some with him. Almost every time I see Reid he has one for me, and now I can repay the favour. More smoke will be coming up in two weeks with Tyler Fry, and I am VERY excited about what is in that delivery. More on them when they arrive.

American Idol is officially the worst season ever. It's just really bad.
Survivor has been not bad. Yau Man, is The Man. Between finding the immunity idol and then making a fake one, and his mad skillz with the bow and arrow, he keeps the show entertaining.

How hot is Avril Lavigne? Her video for "Girlfriend" is on Much Music right now, and I have never seen it in my life. I can't decide who I live more, Blond Avril, Black haired Avril, or Red Head Avril. I'll take all 3 then.

I've seen 300. It's good. Loved how the camera sped up, and slowed down in action sequences.
I've also watched Babel. It's really good. I think my favourite story was of the Japanese girl. I didn't like it as much as the Departed, but it is high in my list of movies from 2006.

I should get moving.
