Coming to Calgary...90% about burgers & Meeting arrangem
 
Curious on anyone's travel's....has anyone seen a sun coral in stores up there for a good price? Or anyone looking to get rid of theirs?

Coming up saturday for the day & thought I could save myself a trip in every store.

Thanks a bunch, :mrgreen:

I was at Ocean a couple of days ago, and they had some Sun Corals. I did not look at the price. :biggrin:

off-topic, but Where is Ocean, and do they have a website?
thx

Bob I 02-23-2005 02:59 AM

No website. Centre St. & 25th ave. North. :biggrin:

AJ_77 02-23-2005 03:01 AM

Ocean is on the east side of Center St N at about 24th avenue, 2 doors down from Amandine Bakery - worth the trip too.

Wai's also had some orange sun corals the other day, didn't bother to check the price (I'm sensitive to sticker shock).

Wai's is across 16th avenue from Peters' Drive-In. :biggrin: mmmmm... chocolate-banana milkshake....

AndyL 02-23-2005 03:31 AM

Mmmmm double cheese and butterscotch shake... *drool*

monza 02-23-2005 03:59 AM

auugh, over rated greasy burger keep driving... :eek:

bulletsworld 02-23-2005 05:53 AM

Yeah I so have to try Peters' Drive-In! It's across from Wai's this WHOLE time :eek: ! Damn I wondered where this place was. :lol:

Anyone know the best route to get to Ocean's from Wai's? Last time I gave up looking for it. So bad with getting lost in Calgary.

Anyone see the price of the sun corals?


:mrgreen:

If you like Vietnamese, you will find the best chicken-based wor wonton in the city in the mall with Wais. Giang Nam I believe.

If you like cheap burgers and fries that taste like four hundred people before you.....make sure to do Peters. :mrgreen: :lol:

Love Wor wonton! Can't miss a chance to check out a place besides "Charly Chan's" in Calgary there. Looking for more places to try good wor wonton. In the Wais mall you say?

:mrgreen:

P.S You finally put a pic of your doggie! Awww...... so adorable! I soOoooOo want a doberman! Nice dog you got there Deb :mrgreen:

IIRC, to get to Ocean's from Wai's (assuming you are in Wai's parking lot) is turn right to go to center street, turn right again onto Center Street, head north. Oceans is about ~10 blocks away on your right hand side.

Yep. It is pretty easy to drive right past it though. The signs not that big...
Its in a strip mall on the right. A little granny driving and rubberneckin' and you should find it no problem. :mrgreen:

SeaHorse_Fanatic 02-23-2005 06:50 PM

So Ryan,

Is that your usual driving style? :lol: :lol:

RobbAdams 02-23-2005 07:31 PM

OK I will meet you at Peters' IF you bring me a Salsbary Barron with mushrooms and cheese. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Burger Baron

AndyL 02-23-2005 11:25 PM

Easiest way to spot oceans, is when driving down center street, look for tuxedo cycle/sports (2 story building - has a couple big signs - hard to miss) Oceans is in the strip mall just north of them.

We have The Burger Inn!

Hard to beat a Peters' shake (especially the banana) but a Cosco patty on keptchup-soaked white bread would be more palatable than one of their greasy-sponge-pseudo-burgers.

bulletsworld 02-25-2005 03:00 AM

Hey Banana Shake....YUM! :icecream: O.K I gotta try Peters' and see what its all about.

Hey Rob,

I'll meet you at Peters and bring you a Salsbary Barron with mushrooms & cheese from Burger Baron. :lol: The town abbortford I believe is where I was that had a burger Barron. I think it was aprox. 30mins out of Calgary. But only thing is... your burger might be cold. :neutral:

I guess it is a good thing that the many hundreds of thousands of people who have bought burgers there since the 1950's don't share your feelings. :eek:

Well, if you're judging by quantity then the McD's across the road has an even better burger, right Bob?

I'll bet most of them wished they'd have worn a bib! :splat:

Snappy 02-25-2005 08:57 PM

Just so I can stay off topic too, if you want a good burger go to
Boogies Burgers on Edmonton Tr and about 10th? Ave NE.
When at Wai's, as I will be surprised if he doesn't have sun polyps say hi to Daniel for me.
Greg

AndyL 02-26-2005 12:24 AM

I was just there under 30 minutes ago - he's still got some.

Andy

bulletsworld 02-26-2005 04:17 AM

how much? how much?

AndyL 02-26-2005 04:21 AM

I think they were 60... But I completely forgot about this thread, so I didn't ACTUALLY look for the price.

So assume 60$ +/- 600% 9 times out of 10.

It's too bad the Ocean employees who lurk on the board don't post. I'm sure they could have settled this up a page or so ago...

Andy

bulletsworld 02-26-2005 09:47 PM

Sorry Everyone,

I'm at home with the flu/cold today and so my trip up to Calgary been cancelled.

I have postponed it till next Saturday instead.... thinking it gives me lots of time to recover.


Sorry for any inconvenience. P.M me later to rearrange pickups & deliveries. Back to bed I go.... Otherwise see you next Saturday.


Lee

AndyL 02-26-2005 11:46 PM

While I was poking around today... I noticed, golds has some, Big als has some, riverfront has some Oceans had some on friday...

I'd suggest you probably wont have trouble finding them.

Andy

Cap'n 02-27-2005 06:28 AM

I heard the best thing to cure a cold was a greasy burger.

Special thanks goes out to BOB_I for picking me out & holding a Sun coral for Meeee! Woohoo! Thanks BOB! *PAPERHUGS*


Also just cause I keep getting asked like crazy.... I going to start a waiting list for the Silver tip Pom Pom Xenia frags. I'm losing track of how many wanted and who's first. So please PM me so I can add you to my list & mark you off if I dont already have you on there.

Also anyone else need anything going back to Edmonton or up from Edmonton this Saturday please let me know before this Friday.

So far I'm meeting a couple of you at Ocean's at 4p.m. on Saturday. See you then!

Thanks a bunch,
