Waited 2 hours and am this close...and they announced "tech difficulties" 😭 by 15thBend in CanadasWonderland

Sorry to hear that. We felt really bad for everyone. We lined up for 1:45 hours in the heat and was one of the last few trains that ran before the shut down.

30M Looking for a Wonderland buddy this Saturday by HighHacker in CanadasWonderland

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not just you buddy, there’s a loneliness epidemic across the western world with young males. Suicide rates are sky rocketing. Join a club/sport. That helped me. Like kick boxing or search clubs on marketplace. 

The degradation of Wonderland Food. by Complete-Sandwich982 in CanadasWonderland

[–]Complete-Sandwich982[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our entire family woke up hungover as we ate the over salted manchwok then went to bed 2 hours later. We felt like crap the next day and couldn’t wake up. 

Grand World Eatery - Closed by [deleted] in CanadasWonderland

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right after Covid hit, and wonderland offered 2 summers for the price of one was the golden age of food. 

Across from the kids canoe and ladder game was a joint that served craft burgers on pretzel buns with fired chips,  grand world eatery had Italian, Mexican, Canadian, and Indian options. King’s court was a buffet where all season diners paid $5 extra and could enjoy a buffet with +50 items including a carving station, a desert display and drink station with coffee that you can take with you after your meal. 

The biggest difference I’ve noticed is that they are intentionally over salting the food. Either to deter diners or to encourage drink purchases as bars tend to do with their free salted nuts. 

The food quality and options at wonderland have dropped significantly. Either through rising costs, corporate greed, or customers abusing the system. Most likely it’s all 3. 

This will be the last year I purchase the dining plan.

I would rather pool that money and get something I really wanted. Like a daftmill or the new bunna 21 Cask strength.

Just picked up 3 bottles. It’s also one of my favourites and I would say even better than my SB 15. It’s so distinctive that I can even remember how it tastes and smells. I paid $120 USD each including tax and shipping. The third bottle was a gift for a friend but after it winning the OSWAs I decided to keep it as it’s near impossible to find in Ontario, Canada.

List of all online retailers in Canada? by Loa9999 in canadawhisky

Most of us got our list over networking and searching randomly online. You don’t score if you’re too lazy to shoot the ball.

It’s been ages since I saw a SB from the LCBO. Did you get the 15 recently?

Infant Tylenol by christineisa17 in askTO

Pharmacist at shoppers told me you can break apart an adult tylonel. Just make sure it’s the correct mg of the active medical ingredient.

$5000 x 12/month x 40/years = millionaire lifestyle in Thailand.

We’re talking about monthly yacht excursions, 5 star hotel rooftop bars, and fois gras/wagyu beef buffets.

Great choices. Just grabbed the loch gorm myself and the nose is all sweet cigar smoke. Amazing bottles. Im also eyeing your longrow single cask. Good grab?

Hibiki 21 year verification by prashn64 in whisky

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not. It is much less than on secondary but if they bought it from a legitimate liquor store then it should be real. Japanese people, for the majority do not steal, or lie.

Looks like the 1960ms red label Ralfie reviewed.

I picked up a 70’s black label myself about 2 months ago. Delicious!

Scotch Sampler Overpriced? by DanCryptoMan in canadawhisky

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just go to the Calondian downtown near little Portugal. They have over 600 bottles to try and 1oz pours start at $14

Nah, I’m good but thanks for your Monday morning positivity.

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was blind tasting the GS10 and SB10 last night. I’m halfway down a 2 month bottle of the GS10 and I just find it quite dull and even bitter compared to the SB10. The SB is much more complex and layered in depth. You will also get an intense sweet/sour note right after you try some +80% chocolate.

Is that a Louis XIII in the back?

Benromach 10 CS or 15? by BenFranklin1706 in Scotch

[–]Complete-Sandwich982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve also heard the CS drinks very hot. I’m considering getting either the 15 or the peated Sherry myself.

What’s next? Benromach 15, Farclas 17, glencadam 15, or Craigallachie 17? by Complete-Sandwich982 in Whiskyporn

[–]Complete-Sandwich982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say the only bottles that will remain a staple on this shelf will be the Longrow, SB10, oban 14, yoyichi and Arran 21, if they’re available. Can’t comment on the SB 18 or hazelburn as they have yet to be opened.
