burgers can be healthy

What: Trying to eat healthy... by ignoring the fact that whatever nutritional value that could have been derived from the potatoes and onions on my plate have been washed away by the oils used to fry them to death.
Where: The Frog (I refuse to call it by it's real name, "The Firkin," cause it sounds offensive whenever I hear/say it out loud. It's just wrong).
When: Lunch
Why: Old co-worker came downtown to bug, visit me.
Verdict: Damn good veggie burger. The patty wasn't mushy or falling apart after the first bite. It didn't taste like cardboard and the texture was kinda "meaty" in a way. Strange I know, but if for whatever reason, I develop a  medical condition that permits me from eating meat for fear of a slow and painful death, I will still be content. Or at least until they find a cure.

I wish there was more onion rings. They're so good!
 
  
Sauteed mushrooms were a nice flavourful  touch.

just like how the french do it

What: Cafe Crepe
Where: Downtown
When: Between lunch and dinner.
Why: Because we weren't hungry enough for a full meal, and we didn't want to spoil our appetite before dinner.
Verdict: Another favourite spot to grab a quick lunch or snack. How can you not love crepes?! By the way, you can get a dish of one of the best french fries I've ever had. Not too oily, crispy and hot. Just the way I like them.

 
 Nutella and coconut crepe.
  
 Maple syrup crepe with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
  
 Chestnut cream crepe. Delicious.
 
Some of the best fries I've ever had.
