The Fat Boy special is to die for. Eat-in facilities are not provided and I would skip on sitting outside at the lone picnic table if I were you. Be sure to try the fries as well. The burgers are prepared fresh to order and include a wonderful meat sauce smothered over top. text/html 2023-04-30T18:21:57+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.stevedrice.net/reviews/restaurants/canada/winnipeg/94 Review of 'Deen's Caribbean Restaurant and Patio' Great, spicy food served in the heart of St. Boniface.

No wonder. The selection of dishes are wheeled around the restaurant and always seem to have something different. Service is not necessarily the best and the décor may not perhaps be the best but the food is definitely first rate. THE place for Dim Sum in Winnipeg.

They serve an extremely depressing Chinese buffet that should be avoided at all costs. Many of the best dishes are not on the menu (though they appear in Chinese) including the Peking Duck and fresh lobster. Some of the menu items are not too bad.

An extremely “60's” interior including excessive use of heavy tapestries tends to muffle the noise of the (always) crowded interior.

I say simply but it is far from this. If you go for the stir-fry special (by far the best bargain) it is all-you-can-eat of a modest Chinese food buffet and the large assortment of raw meat and vegetables which you mix as you like, adding appropriate spices and sauces, having a chef fry it up for you on a massive griddle.

However, this is still one of the bargains in Dim Sum in Winnipeg and is worth a visit. Orders from Dim Sum are made off of menus. text/html 2023-04-30T18:21:57+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.stevedrice.net/reviews/restaurants/canada/winnipeg/111 Review of 'Viva Restaurant' A rather odd location and even stranger interior don't let this put you off.
