Definitely going to check out Jamaican and Thai. Looks like stronger Korean and pizza joints compared to Vancouver, too

The Fishman Lobster house might be a bit much for mostly two of us, max four :toot:

Yeah lots of good options for Korean. Owl of Minerva is a reasonable default if you don't find better.

Oh! Flip food!!

They have the thing where they lay out piles of meats on rice on leaves across the table and you eat it with your bare hands (gloves provided if you want). That was a great experience.

Last time I was there with Dukes and our wives, a couple at the table next to us did that. They took a bunch of pics for the Insta clout I guess, had that and the fried rice they ordered packed up and left. They didn't even have a bite. Just packed it up to go.

Badhobz 06-14-2024 03:41 PM

Hey evofire I found a solution for your kids. Looks like a good time for the kids.

Damn ... aren't you glad you don't live in Calgary now?

Calgary's water restrictions could last 3 to 5 more weeks as crews find more problems with broken water main

That city be stinking ... they're asking people not to shower, don't do laundry, etc.

Yeah... we're not a collective society, especially in Alberta. People DGAF and I guarantee a majority of people aren't cutting back their water use.

westopher 06-14-2024 07:58 PM

I don't know. Albertans actually have done pretty well when necessary, at least prior to Covid. The massive floods in Calgary and the fires in Fort Mac are good examples of a pretty strong community ethic. Way better than Vancouver where people are climbing over each other for free fucking road salt.

Razor Ramon HG 06-14-2024 08:03 PM

Their mistake was not going over the top and saying there was only a week or two of water left or something along the lines of that. Can't trust people to do the responsible thing.

Traum 06-14-2024 08:28 PM

Calgary has done really well on cutting back with their water usage due to this water main break. I forgot what the exact units was, but normally it was 6-something L of water used everyday, and they have cut it down to 4-something L since the water main break. People have been going without showers and stuff for at least 3 - 4 days already, and most recently water usage went back up a bit. If it is sort of like a cheat day kind of thing during a diet, can you really blame the Calgarians?

Then again, an additional 3 - 5 weeks of repairs is really gonna hurt.

But that makes me wonder -- is BO gonna be super bad in Calgary between now til the end of July?

Stampede starts on July 5th ... in 3 weeks time :lawl:

Mikoyan 06-14-2024 09:45 PM

My colleagues in Calgary are saying the conspiracy theories are going full tilt already. Best one so far is Justin Trudeau did it as a false flag to he can announce fed money to save Calgary and buy votes for the election.

yray 06-15-2024 08:59 AM

lol just build a temp pipe

pretty sure they have the right people in oil country

Bump. Anyone have any insight on this topic they could share?

Badhobz 06-15-2024 01:03 PM

^ I gonna go see Nix again. He did the tint in my ES and it’s been parked outside for years without any issues. The guys a tint god. Pay him cash and no tax.

https://maps.app.goo.gl/cUVVd6kkSxLcj9bVA?g_st=ic

I’m booked in for Saturday next week at 9am. You can just tell him the fat guy with the ES and the GTI referred you and I’m sure he’ll give you a really good price. Last time for the es he was done in under 2 hours and charged less than 300 bucks. I think it was 220 out the door

Not sure if this was for show or just regular rich china woman behavior.

Badhobz 06-15-2024 05:22 PM

Typical rich chinar woman shit. If my mom had money she’d be doing that all day long.
