AFTER CLASS - THE WEEK-END: Volume 1, Session 2

Hey Golden Hawks, its DJ Mack here for the first time! Hope you are enjoying The Week-End with DJ Sav and I, this week we decided to have an all Migos playlist in honour of their new album “Culture II”. We talked about some weird news stories involving planes and pets, and our Try of the Week was The Poke Box, a Hawaiian themed restaurant new to the Waterloo area. Check out this awesome video Tasty did with Migos where they whipped up some stir fry, to get you in the excited about the album!!

Planes and Pets

I found an interesting article about a woman who tried to bring her emotional support Peacock on a United Airlines flight but was denied entrance onto the flight even though her Peacock supposedly had a ticket. DJ Sav had found a similar article about a woman who tried to bring her emotional support Hamster on a flight with her, but when faced with the issue of not being allowed to bring it on the flight she flushed it down the toilet! These stories seemed to be a little too similar and we agreed that this could have just been a publicity stunt or they did it for the meme of it!

Try of the Week

This week we tried The Poke Box, a Hawaiian themed restaurant chain at 255 King St North. We both felt the vibe of the restaurant was very different… to say the least. The seating looked like it was a high school wood chop class project, the music was all over the place with some Country mixed with Pop, which left us very confused. The food was ok, I chose to pick a pre-made bowl because I didn’t know what to order, DJ Sav created her own bowl which was ok as well. I recommend trying it out if your interested as it is very healthy food, but you won’t be seeing DJ Sav and I there.
