Have any of you brought out-of-towners from cities, not farmer's fields like Brandon, to Sals and talked about it's Winnipeg cult status?
I did. Never lived that down. "This shit? That's what Wpg is proud of?"
Thankfully it was 3 am post alcohol binge so that redeemed it. That's it.

THIS IS WHY OUR CITY SUCKS
I konw you're just having fun but enough people out there actually hold onto Sals as part of their Wpg identity.

You can't call McDonald's gross and then even mantion the Sals name.
Sals is the ugly chick that gained notoriety from allegedly giving good blowjobs, except that she only gave mediocre blowjobs but all the guys were too embarassed to admit that they bedded the ugly girl for a tragically bad blowjob, that so they perpetuated the myth to save their dignity.
That's Sals.

However, I have never understood the appeal of Stella's. To me, it's just like Sals for hipsters. I have eaten there many times over the years (always on the suggestion of others) and I find the food to be just okay, and never memorable. The only plus side is being able to order alcohol.

Stella's isn't high flying fine dining, but if you can't taste a vast difference ion quality (Stella's burger is actually awesome)... then I dunno
