$4.95 entrée @ El Furniture Warehouse Whistler

since its been years ever since my last visit to Whistler, we ask friends for recommendations. she recommended us to a restaurant where everything was $4.95

top: poutine and onion rings

poutine was not as exciting but still good

onion rings used beer batter and was easy to smell the beer scent

personally prefer crisper ones

bottom: honey garlic wings

the works burger

meat was quite juicy

not a lot of fries accompanied but the burger fills in the value

they gave ketchup instead of mayo

better than a McDonald's meal

-although the price was cheap, quality was not affected, everything was worth its value
-the $1.95 substitution for yam fries was not worth it, a side order for $4.95 would have been a way better decision
-we went around 5pm but certain items on the menu were already sold out
-18% gratuity for group of 5 or more, however they didn't charge us that
-servers were all friendly, each came to serve you regardless of area
-they do take-outs and close at 1am so perfect for late night snacks or to bring back to your room or on to way home

Five Guys Burgers and Fries

did some cross border shopping and decided to give this place a try after hearing about it. has location in vancouver as well but everything in states is cheaper so... decided to give my first time down south

baby cheeseburger and large fries

generously over flowing filled fries

free unlimited peanuts

not a lot of people were eating but they were awesome

not too salty and crunchy, seems pretty fresh

open kitchen 

don't really agree to the banners

piles of bags of potatoes and more peanuts

coke fan finally meeting this cool new machine

-wasn't as good as i expected, like In-N-Out more which is also cheaper
-beef patties were fresh like they said but the bun is too soft and somewhat soggy feeling
-fries were fresh and not too oily, but somehow wanted crispy ones at that moment so they didn't please me
-have the say the best stuff were the free stuff, the peanuts, the malt vinegar, and the free toppings
-a place people with nut allergies should avoid
-still worth a try if never been

Dinner @ Applebee's

after some border shopping, headed to Applebee's for dinner. first time going and overall statisfied. excellent service and good deals. $20 for 1 appetizer and 2 entrees

boneless wings with honey bbq sauce

was like eating chicken nuggets

blackened chicken penne

chicken was dull but the sauce saved it

bread stick was bad

riblet basket

fries were not crispy and a bit salty

meat tender

a bit too many bones, prefer ribs more

ultimate trio - steak quesadilla towers, spinach & artichoke dip, cheeseburger sliders

quesadillas were the best

dip could be lighter
