Ep 35 - Ramen Noodle Taste Test
Sunday Feb 14, 2010
Sunday Feb 14, 2010
http://zweifatchicks.podbean.com Feeling the post-Christmas crunch? Or just looking for a cheap, quick meal? Nothing stretches an already maximized budget like ramen noodles! A Chinese delicacy that was only available from restaurants until a post World War II Taiwanese-Japanese inventor pioneered a way to make them at home. In this episode, we taste six different ramen noodle packages.

Ep 29 - Viva Burritos & Rio Grande III
Monday Dec 14, 2009
Monday Dec 14, 2009
http://zweifatchicks.podbean.com
In this week's episode, we discuss a new burrito place in Oshawa called Viva Burritos. Great food, old school customer service, affordable and quick! Also, we pine for our favourite Morgantown Mexican Restaurant: Rio Grande III.
Towards the end of the episode, we incorrectly identified Chi-chi's downfall - it was not e. coli in the romaine or tainted salsa - it was Hepatitis A from the green onions. Well, the moral of the story is, you can never trust a green onion cause you don't know where it's been.

Ep 8 - Burgers!
Sunday Jun 28, 2009
Sunday Jun 28, 2009
Ubiquitous and delicous, burgers can usually satisfy at least two out of the important three: fast, cheap and good. But how far can we push the humble hamburger to be fast? We discuss our favourite burgers in this episode, and how a good thing can go bad when you expect too much out of it. Links of Interest:
