Ep 39 - Never Eat At A Place Called Mom's...
Tuesday Mar 16, 2010
Tuesday Mar 16, 2010
Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom’s. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own.” -- Nelson Algren, A Walk on The Wild Side (1956)
In this week's episode, we discuss a hidden gem called Momma's that brings the lunch counter back to the present and into a mall! We also have sad news regarding Pete's Open Kitchen (which we really hope is reversed), and some info about the next episode, which will be recorded this week with a special guest. ;) For your viewing pleasure, two semi-related videos:- Warrior in Woolworth's by the Xray Spex (vintage punk) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2NYrIUG518
- Five and Dime from Reefer Madness the Musical (no nudity or swearing, but possibly NSFW due to a steamy tango scene at the end featuring Neve Campbell & Steven Weber) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK9NCWQdBp0&feature=fvw

Ep 37 - Willie Stout's and J.P. Fitzpatrick & Sons
Monday Mar 01, 2010
Monday Mar 01, 2010
With St. Patrick's being only 17 days away, here are two great pubs that we've scouted out for your pleasure. This isn't a pub cast (although beer selection is discussed), but focuses on the amazing food of two fine establishments. Willie Stout's of Toronto makes burgers more then just pub grub, and fosters the community feeling of a "public house". J.P. Fitzpatrick & Sons offers traditional Irish dishes with a gourmet spin, right next to one of the best movie theaters (in our opinion) of Durham Region. You don't have to be a beer enthusiast - although it doesn't hurt! - to sit down in either and enjoy a great lunch or dinner.

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.

On Highway 11, heading up to Ontario's cottage country, there's a great place to stop and grab a bite and ... you know... make a pit stop. :) Simple, good food at a great price - check it out if you're in the Georgian Bay or Muskoka region.
