Denny’s on Davie Street

Denny's on UrbanspoonThis Denny’s is open 24 hours a day! Even through the Christmas holidays! So Sheepie and I went on Christmas Eve close to midnight.

I had the Turkey + Stuffing for around $12. There were lots of side dishes to choose from. I chose hashbrowns and squash+zucchini. It came with two super greasy toasts…blah. The turkey was dry and chewy. The gravy was good, but SUPER salty and ended up drinking 4-5 cups of water afterward. Wow, I was extremely thirsty. Not only that, but I felt nauseous  with a bit of abdominal pain. Perhaps because of the time of day, and the amount of greasy food intake. I don’t know how much calories I just ingested.

Sheepie had the Bird Sandwich. which was dripping with oil as he ate. He didn’t feel all that great either after he finished.

The jukebox (when someone puts money to play) can be quite loud, but once it goes back to the regular radio in the background, it’s ok.

Our server was very friendly and cheery despite having to work so late on Christmas Eve. However, the food was so unhealthy (something I have been avoiding for several years), but Sheepie used to like this place. But as his eating style has slowly changed for something healthier (my influence hehe), I think we can take Denny’s off our list of restaurants to go to. Sorry Denny’s.

Roasty Jack

Roasty Jack on Urbanspoon
Located in Brentwood Mall food court, another fast food chain that survives because of the business workers that all storm to the mall during lunch hour. Their main dish or ingredient is the turkey.

I’ve only had the their hearty turkey soup $ 3.99 (small) and potatoes with gravy. (gravy alone is $0.60). It’s run by Chinese whom my friend says they don’t know how to cook the turkey properly.

When I went to order my soup that day, the guy at the cashier was crouched below the counter eating his meal. It didn’t seem professional, nor appetizing. The lady that helped me couldn’t find the ladle and just grabs one from the open window to the kitchen. It was used. I hope it was used to cook the soup. I hope it was recent. I hope it’s not dirty. Gross.

Well, all I can say, is that the soup was pretty salty, but good. Lots of turkey chunks, and went well with my Greek rice. Also, I didn’t have any bad stomachs afterwards.
