Metropolis Grill & Bar
4800 Kingsway (Metropolis @ Metrotown)
Burnaby, BC
When I was around 20 years old and living in Panama, TGI Friday’s opened a location there. With a lot of American-culture loving friends, it was considered “hip” and was often ended up being dragged to that place for gatherings. Back then, I will admit, food wasn’t that bad; I recall a dish I often ordered: Mushroom Chicken Mushroom, which had, as the name suggests, chicken topped with, you guessed it, more mushrooms and breaded mushrooms. After a year or so, as expected, things started to slip but it was still decent.
When I moved here, I was not really interested into going to one – specifically, Metrotown’s location; but, in the end, for some odd reason, I ended up there with some friends. “As expected” or not, food was sub-par and I knew there was absolutely no point for me to go back. Some time ago, that location closed and was replaced with a restaurant called Metropolis Grill & Bar. How good or bad would it be? That’s I went to find out… (Note: A couple of days after I visited this place, it was “closed under further notice”…)
This is a stock picture I took a couple of days prior. Yeah! to stock pictures!
