Genshu Nama-Nama - Full Octane sake goodness!
In August we met up with our good friends Jamie and Daisy to explore Kingston. The only thing we really had planned was to take them out for dinner at the Kingston Brewing Company. We found lots of great places to eat, and they were good enough to come on the show and talk about what we discovered in Kingston together!

Our apologies to our listeners for giving them a rerun this week, but we didn't get a chance to record. So, since podbean seems to have lost a lot of our earlier episodes, this is the one that started it all! Picture lovingly ripped off of Black Bear's facebook site:

Ep 50 - Haugen’s BBQ
We greatly apologize for the lateness of our 50th episode, but it couldn't be helped since Sheila spent all of last week in Toronto working security for the G20 Summit. Here's a great episode for you though, of a rural Ontario tradition - Haugen's BBQ! They have amazing rotisserie chicken, and are a hub for many car cruises.
