I want to give this place the benefit of the doubt. Food trucks are cool, and trendy, and it's a…read morepretty easy place to stop at if you're on Royal Windsor going towards Southdown. It's an industrial area, so not the greatest location, but there's parking right beside the truck and a place to sit, so that's convenient. The lady working was nice, pretty good customer service. The perogies, however, were not worth the 9 or so dollars I paid. You only get like 6 or 7 perogies for that price! That's it! Sides are free, so I got the works (sour cream, bacon bits and caramelized onions). They were good, but not any better than the giant pack of frozen perogies you can get at the grocery store. This expensive snack-disguised-as-a-meal wasn't that filling, as it's so small. But if you've got money to burn, and you just want a quick, small bite on the road or before you get home, this is the place to go.

Yesterday, I was looking for a Circle K store after running an errand near the Oakville-Mississauga…read moreborder. I did a search and found this one close to Erin Mills Shopping Centre. This Circle K is attached to an Esso gas station. Along with the Tim Hortons drive-thru and the car wash, everything takes up a lot of real estate. They are all spread out more than most with this setup. It's a busy business. There was a huge lineup at the Timmy's drive-thru that's a part of this Circle K. I squeaked by and pulled into a parking spot steps away from the door. Most gas pumps were occupied. The car wash was equally as busy. This Circle K-Esso combo is popular for at least two reasons. It's close to the mall. It's also close to highway 401, which was what I took eastbound to make another stop and ultimately head home. I had digital coupons to redeem. I headed inside and had no problem finding bottled water and peanuts. There was a mom-son duo ahead of me. The son seemed extremely indecisive as to what drinks he wanted to get. I saw him go back and forth four times before he settled on a single drink. I didn't mind the wait. Normally, I am taking a while to redeem my coupons. I felt good knowing that he took longer. It was finally my turn. The man at the counter was fine. Not friendly. Not mean. He seemed indifferent. I scanned all coupons. I then scanned my PC Optimum barcode off my phone, and then paid for my peanuts with my debit card. Done! I thanked the man. I got no response. I left the store. I feel like everyone keeps to themselves in this neighbourhood. I parked next to a car whose driver was asleep the entire time that I was here. Poor guy. He was out cold, likely colder than my bottled drinks. I'd drop by again. It had everything that I needed, with a bonus sleepyhead. (41)

I came out of my way because of the 5* rating to get some filet mignon steaks. The meat counter had…read morea few other cuts of steaks etc., but no filet. He had some frozen bacon wrapped steaks all of different thicknesses. The man behind the counter was kind enough to put together three of similar thickness, so I took those. Most real butcher shops have enough beef filets to cut the steaks a customer wants. The meat looks like good quality, but don't come here expecting a butcher shop or a butcher.

Oh man, Boffo's. How do I even start to explain Boffo's?…read more Boffo's is flawless. One time, Boffo's met John Stamos on a plane and he told them they were pretty...amazing. One time, Boffo's steak was so fresh, it punched me in the face. It was AWESOME. But enough Mean Girls references, let's get down to the meat. THE MEAT. They are the BEST butchers in Oakville, with the best employees. Everytime I come in, I feel SO welcomed, I have never felt the least bit intimidated or like I didn't belong. I've bought everything from meats to prepared pasta meals to lunch from Boffo's, and everything is amazing, everytime. I can't get over how decadent and high-end they feel, but how friendly and down to Earth they really are. If you like to eat, you will love Boffo's. Go today. And avoid Mean Girls references, they really drag you in...I WANT MY PINK SHIRT BACK!!

As I made my way over to Eddie's from the Wisła Deli, I marveled at how similar this area of…read moreMississauga is to parts of Warsaw. Signs on establishments in Polish and the style of buildings transported me back to my days living in the southern neighborhood of Warsaw. I had a little more time to spend shopping for Polish goodies before I had to head on to my next stop, so I decided that I was going to make it to Eddies Meat and Deli. BEST DECISION EVER. If you saw my review of Wisła, you know that this trip was on Holy Thursday, and just as before this place was PACKED. The lines to order meat (fresh or deli) were long as was the check out line. But we'll get to that. As I walked in, I was immediately struck with the larger assortment of products. I found my beloved Almette spread, and was willing to pay a high price no matter what because it is so difficult to obtain when I'm back at home. As I was scanning the dairy case, I came across Mlekovita's packaged Gołka cheese. For those who want to be accurate, this isn't oscypek, but it was close enough for me. The salty, smoked, "squeaky" cheese is a treat I haven't had in years. I took four packages.. I threw a couple of other items into my basket, and then hopped in line to check out. I didn't get any of the pastry items, but they looked so good, and I'm sure if I was local, I'd be ordering far too often. When I got to the counter, I asked the young girl to get me some krem oliwkowy from the cosmetics shelf behind the register. I was very excited to see the ziaja product in the small green pot. This cream has a scent that evokes a sense of nostalgia for me, but it is so rich and nourishing and it was a favorite of mine that I haven't had in years. I ordered once on amazon for a ridiculous price that I couldn't justify. So to see it here made my day. I checked out speedily - there is something to say for Polish efficiency, and even got a free Wawel chocolate bar. I would definitely say that the staff here are must more friendly than in the other store I visited. It made for a much more pleasant experience. Currently (April 2025), there is a lot of construction going on on Dundas Street, so I highly recommend using the side street at the light to access the back parking area. It is much easier especially if you need make a left turn out onto Dundas.

What an amazing market & deli! We stumbled across this just searching for the best lunch in the…read morearea. Once we walked in, our hungry tummies were overwhelmed with yummy smells. We initially saw huge, gorgeous danishes, rolls & bread that had self serve tongs & bags. We got a cherry cheese & a blueberry cheese danish - so big each needed its own brown paper (lunch sized) bag. Super yummy, loaded with sweetened cheese & fruit. Makes me regret not getting the apple one too! Then we walked back to the hot food area. To the left were dozens of sausage links hung up behind a deli case full of slice to order cold cuts. A big menu of smoked meats, ribs, cabbage rolls, etc., was in front of us. Then we saw what I can only compare to my childhood memory of Stouffers french bread pizzas. We got one of each - mushroom & cheese and ham & cheese, warmed up. They warmed them for us - the light crispy french bread & both flavors were delicious! We also got a garlicky spinach feta & a pork crepe. These were hefty! Thin crepes with filling & rolled compactly. Both were so yummy! We also got some self-serve bulk pickles that were fantastic. We would have gotten some bags of frozen blueberry or cherry or meat pierogis too, but we had too far to drive to keep them frozen. Everyone we spoke with here was so friendly. They had tons of delicious looking cheeses, meats, jarred spreads & pickles, and other condiments, as well as Polish candies. This is a GREAT place for groceries, a quick meal, or to prepare a meal at home. Loved it here!!

There were several prepared items you could buy: salads, samosa, pakora, beef patties, sausage rolls, chicken cutlets, baked potatoes, etc. There was nothing vegan and gf for me but hubby got beef patties, sausage rolls and chicken fingers (smaller version of cutlets). He heated them at home and both he and my son enjoyed them all. They even sold Cadbury Flake chocolate bars from England so of course that was purchased and enjoyed as well. They have a freezer section and lots more in the back of the store as well. This was a nice local find in port credit:)
