Ice Cream In Kitchener WaterlooWednesday, May 1, 2019

It’s Ice cream Season!
Okay, let’s be serious, I don’t need to wait for summer to enjoy ice cream, but it does run through my mind more when it’s gets warm. Think of ice cream like my version of an ice cold beer on a hot day!
If you haven’t tried our loved local treat you’re missing some of the most fantastic and interesting ice cream that I’ve ever had! Now I’ll be honest, their location isn’t open all the time, so it’s a little hard to get into if you’re busy, but there are lots of other locations now in Kitchener Waterloo where you can pick up and try these tasty creamy creations! I’ve got a table below on where you can get your fix of Four All Ice Cream.
If you want to know what makes their icecream so special, it’s how’s it made! Locally sourced milk and cream is then combined with local and/or responsibly sourced ingredients, often in small batches. The flavours change regularly and if you love one, make sure you keep going back to get it, get all of it! Not only the ingredients are great, they are packaged in small should packaging, which will leave you asking yourself if you should just eat the whole thing, of course you should! Also when they’re small, you can buy many flavours and try them all!
Make sure to stop into one of the below Four All pick up spots this summer, it’s a stop you won’t regret! Stop in at Graffiti Market for this Icecream Taco!
Where you can pick up these treats?

Business of the Week - La Cucina
If you haven’t been to visit La Cucina in downtown Kitchener yet, you’re missing some of the best pizza in the Region! This warm and cozy spot is one of our favourite spots for a random Tuesday date night, a great place to bring friends for a fantastic dinner out or even great for a special occasion. If you prefer pasta, like I do, the pasta at La Cucina is incredible, all made in house and with homemade sauces and many ingredients imported to Italy. We visited Italy in 2016 and La Cucina is as close as we’ve come to enjoying meals like we did in Italy. To start I would suggest the Caesar salad, always fresh and crisp with nice and crunchy croutons. If you’re looking for something to share, they have some incredible Antipasti plates with fresh meats, cheeses, and even house made porchetta! The atmosphere at the restaurant is inviting, cozy and they have great tables for two that are intimate or space for family and friends to gather and enjoy a wonderful evening out. If you love Italian food in a great atmosphere, La Cucina will not disappoint, you’ll be proud to have introduced your friends and family to this wonderful downtown Kitchener gem! |

Business Spotlight - Morris Car WashThursday, March 14, 2019

Business of the Week: Morris Car WashSpring is coming, it's been a long hard Winter, but Spring is almost here and with Spring it's time to get your car looking it's best!
This is a photo of my beauty Ruby (Yes, I name my car) on a Sunny day in March. I always take my car to Morris to make it shine inside and out!
For those who have never been, here's a little about how it works: The car wash is located at 533 King St E in Kitchener, but you have to access the driveway at the back of the car wash, which is off of Betzner. Take that little dead end street to the end, and hang a right.
If you're lucky there won't be a line, if there is a little line, take that time to clear out any garbage in your car and make sure that all your stuff is piled together so you can get maximum interior cleaning done. I always remove my tissue box, my cards, chap sticks, pens, coins and any other little items so they can get into all the small spots to clean too.
If you have children, remove the car seats so they can vacuum under there as well. They do offer some exterior only packages, but I'll be honest, nothing feels better than getting into a car that has just been cleaned inside too, so for the few extra dollars, treat yourself! If I'm doing my regular clean every 2 weeks, I use a #1, which includes: The exterior wash, cleaning of the rubber mats, cleaning of the windows, cleaning of the dash and they my console, a light vacuum, which is great for my car and a towel dry at the end. The entire was process is usually completed by about 4-5 gentlemen and I'm always impressed by their speed and how thorough they are.
Once you drop your car at the back wash entrance, you go inside where you can watch your car wash being completed, then pay at the counter and wait outside for your car to be pulled up all shiny and bright and if the weather is warm enough, they will towel dry it outside.
For those of you who don't get your car cleaned on the regular, you can use a more in depth detailing package where you leave your car for the day and they will make sure to clean everything you require, including a seat shampoo if you need it. I used this service once when my car was broken into and I wanted to make sure there was no glass left over inside. Thanks to the thieves, I had a bright and shiny car inside and out! If you need to know more about their packages click here.
If you're looking for a fantastic wash and little interior cleaning without having to spend the afternoon in your driveway. Morris is my go to place for a wash and I always leave feeling like a million bucks!
