What's impressive is he isn't afraid of the law, and I speculate it's because he knows he cant get away with a few slaps on the wrist. This is probably all the judge can do and he pushed his boundaries as far as he could.

I've been lucky the past few visits, got a parking spot almost immediately

My favourite memory was going to Richmond Costco during snow storm and parking lot was basically empty.

Chicken and waffles.. neither the chicken nor the waffles look great.


These perogies look terrible. i thought they were some sort of a fish.

that chicken and waffles looks awful as well..
how do you even reheat that.. toast up the waffle and chicken separately and then put the coleslaw back after?
the least they can do is separate the slaw..

I tried the pierogies and they aren't bad - they are overdressed with sauce (so probably massive calories) but they are fine. My top pre-made meal choices at Costco are the shawarma meat/pita platter, the lasagna and the pot pie - the perogies probably fall around the same place as the tempura prawn taco tray (middle tier).

Also the price, $25?!?!

You could go to Yolks, Jam, OEB, any of those spots for chicken and waffles for the same price, but fresh and delicious.

Yea I looked at those waffles and perogies yesterday and quickly moved on, grabbed the staple chicken pot pie, easy and the kids love it. Pairs well with the greek pasta salad they have too.

The tiramisu box thing is actually pretty solid if you have a few people for dessert or are wanting to be a fat pos and eat it all yourself.

the premade costco quesadillas are pretty darn good, picked them up a couple weeks ago and pan-fried them and I was impressed.

went to Richmond Costco for the first time last week... was unloading my groceries in the whip with a lady waiting for my spot... another lady reverses into her trying to leave her spot lol.

also scored this fast & furious R34 GTR skyline RC car for $30 off the website.. pretty fun toy for the price.

is this new? I saw it the other day, looked alright from a distance.

Richmond Costco was a fucking gong show compared to Poco location, holy shit. Easily 5x at many people. The lineup for cashier stretched all the way to the bakery. I'll give them credit though, it moved very quickly. They even pre-scanned some customer's items.

i honestly think that montreal smoked meat is the most overrated piece of shit sandwich in the world. Whats the difference between smoked meat and regular old pastrami? its the same shit! leave it to those quebec fuckers to try and pretend they made something original.

-tried both pastrami and the Montreal Smoked meat. Subtle difference in the meat texture.

You're right about the Montreal smoked meat. It is overrated. tastes about the same as Pastrami haha.

Montreal smoked meat: softer, melt in your mouth texture. The meat is steamed for a softer texture.

Pastrami: firmer and chewier texture. Smoked meat, then baked or boiled.

The spices used in either Pastrami or Montreal smoked meat are pretty much the same. Garlic, mustard seed, etc.

Oh, I wished I had seen this thread earlier.

I literally just got back from a Costco run and while waiting for a hot dog, the lady at the food counter gave me an unclaimed Montreal Smoked Meat sandwich. I'd have to agree that it's not very good and I would not pay the $7.99 or whatever they are asking for it.

Edit: Wow, 31,000th post.
