UYE Burgerquest 1: Oakwood Canadian Bistro

This is what you would call the UYE paleo faileo.
After eating pretty much cardboard for a couple of days and then having my Tuesday messed up with a trip to the Women and Childrens ER room, my workout schedule and all my daily macros were thrown off — and this wasn’t even my cheat day!
So to add insult to injury, I come here to eat stuff that I wasn’t supposed to be eating. The approach would be maximum flavour with minimum damage. How do you do that? Accept donations of bacon and cheese from another Unilocaler. (Thanks Isabelle). I end up with a behemoth of a burger. The pics really don’t do justice to the size of this, but I added the donated bacon and cheese to this beast and proceed to chomp it down. The only damage will come from the bun. It was a fine burger. Very Fine!
Also sampled the Kale salad, and that was mighty fine as well.
I didn’t dare touch the brisket poutine, because will power it was for this evening.
Flush it down with a malbec, along with great company and conversation, it was a fun evening. But, of course it doesn’t end there. You have to take a trip to Rain or Shine ice cream to cap all good things. I didn’t partake in the consumption, but went for the company.
In the end, I did meet my macros for the day, with a big chug of 16 oz’s of whey once I got home before bed.
Thanks Isabelle for the gifts, and special thanks for putting this together Becky!

WOW. I totally didn’t know I can review UYE’s… !!
I quite enjoyed the company tonight, especially the food, and conversation… big thanks to Isabelle for bringing cupcakes and little soaps for everyone! The stop at Rain or Shine afterwards was a nice touch, even better that it was Taco Tuesday. :D

Thank you Becky for throwing this together. After much burger debate on the talk threads it was awesome to finally have this in full motion.
Although a certain someone was a no show without apology but everyone else was awesome company.
The place was awesome and the burger was awesome (see Seperate review on that).
The conversations were golden, as with most UYE’s.
Looking forward to the next Burger off.
