The burrito is the size of about two hands put together. It's grilled a bit and rolled up nicely with a yogurt based sauce that soaps into the rice. The environment is friendly with window seating or to a big table. It's a very clean space.

This is the second location of the Freshii franchise at Kenaston and Grant in the stripmall beside…read morethe Kenaston Wine Market. It opened in November and has the same bright and colourful feel as the Corydon one though this one feels larger. Menu is the same and staff are friendly and my orders were promptly made as it was quiet mid-week day. I tried the Warrior ($7.49 + $1.99 chicken add on) brown rice, corn, red onions, tomatoes, carrots, black beans, cajun spice, ranch dressing. Feels like I am just eating rice and beans so I would not order this again. Ranch dressing didn't give it much flavour either. Any burrito can be made into a bowl so I chose the Tex Mex ($7.99 + $1.99 chicken add on)brown rice, black beans, corn, avocado, aged cheddar, pico de gallo, salsa. This one had more flavour though a bit more cheese and salsa would be better. Overall, I think the Mediterranean bowl is probably the best one I've had so far. Food is like the namesake, it's fresh for sure and you don't feel heavy and weighed down after eating their food. Everything ends up being around $12 or so after tax (if you add a protein) - a tad more than a classic fast food place but obviously much healthier. Another reason I prefer this location as there's way more parking then the Corydon Village one. :-)

The first Olive Garden that I ever visited outside of Ontario when the franchise still existed in the province, but within Canada, was this eatery on Portage Avenue. It shares a parking lot with Red Lobster on the west side, with an A&W on the right. I didn't have a car during my first four years living in Winnipeg. Taking two buses to get to this Olive Garden was a breeze from Osborne Village, especially with the bus loop in front of CF Polo Park across the street. I recently relived a bunch of eateries that I used to frequent years ago. I decided to come back here for lunch last month when I was on vacation. I drove into Winnipeg from Steinbach at around 1 pm. It was definitely easier to find a parking spot for lunch than when I was here at 5:30 pm for dinner at Red Lobster earlier in the week. I backed into a spot fairly close to the back of the eatery and walked over to the entrance. It wasn't too busy. A greeter immediately took me into the dining room. I had Abdiel as my server. As my stay for lunch rolled along, we both realized that we had a lot in common. Frankly, he was a young male version of me, but far more polished than I was at his age. I ordered the following items: - Raspberry lemonade - Zuppa toscana - Shrimp scampi (lunch portion) - Tiramisu My raspberry lemonade came out first. It's my favourite beverage at this eatery. It's yummy. I got refills throughout my meal. My zuppa toscana came out next. It was hearty and yummy. Abdiel asked if I wanted more soup. I was okay... so I thought. Oddly, the breadsticks that usually accompany the soup came to me after I had polished it off. I ended up breaking a bit of the breadstick and sopping off what was left of my soup. My server was exceptionally attentive. He saw me do that and said that he could get me the zuppa toscana broth. He admitted that he does the same thing as I was doing with the soup. I said yes. He brought broth. I dunked all my breadsticks in it. So good and comforting! My lunch-sized shrimp scampi came out next. My usual is the chicken scampi. However, I changed things up. I frankly don't recall ever having the shrimp scampi. It was excellent. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. I got the same angel hair pasta, which was al dente, with the same sauce with diced tomatoes. Only the veggies changed. I got cut-up asparagus, which I loved. The chicken version gets you bell peppers. I like having lunch at Olive Garden. The lunch portions are perfect. They allow me to squeeze in dessert. I got my favourite dessert, which is the tiramisu. My server asked if I wanted coffee. I was good with my raspberry lemonade. I loved having this tiramisu. It was delicious, consistent, and perfect. Abdiel came by to check on me. Yep, I had devoured my dessert. My plate looked like I had licked it clean. We started off talking about the rain and how soothing it was to sleep through the night with it falling. I know that there are times where I just want to dine quietly and be left alone. I also know that there are servers who just want to do their jobs, not get involved chatting up a storm with customers, and leave. We had that happy medium of chatting and being respectful. It was nice. He asked me about coffee. I said that I was a tea drinker more than coffee, but I like iced drinks more these days. He was in the same boat. We talked about tea. He loves mint tea. Wise choice! I do, too. We then talked about scoring good deals at the Outlet Collection. He talked about getting name-brand jeans at heavily reduced prices. I recently did the same thing with my GAP and Torrid cargo pants there. It was cool meeting my kindred spirit. We like deals, mint tea, and sopping up soup with breadsticks. I asked him if I could get a couple of take-home meals. He nodded and asked what I wanted. I ordered two spaghetti with meat sauce orders. Yay! He brought my meals and got me a paper bag with handles. He even placed my food in it. Nice! I settled the bill at the table. I tipped and tapped. I let him know that he was a great server. It was a pleasure meeting him and having him as my server. I don't imagine that he'll be a server forever. He's intelligent and extremely articulate. Whatever he does, he'll be successful. This eatery is fortunate to have him as a staffer. I hope that they see how great he is. I used the washroom before leaving this eatery. The women's washroom remains next to the main doors. The stall that I used was clean. It was wonderful returning to this eatery. I look forward to returning when I'm in the area again. (289)
