Some cities have good baseball teams. In Toronto, he has a new 40,000-seat featured restaurant instead.
What does it offer? hot dog.
But not the hoof-filled meat tubes you’re used to, savage. According to a press release, these are artisanal creations filled with “shawarma and tzatziki” or “rice flour dusting.”
Elsewhere, you’ll find “mango-forward” margaritas (whatever happened to tequila-forward?), “plant-based wurst” and fries topped with a “special parmesan mix.”
What makes Parmesan cheese “custom”? The only thing I can think of is that it’s not made in Parma. Nothing compliments the 8th Tallboy hops like Bowmanville cheese.
A true esthetician knows that food is only part of the dining experience. A great spot requires a great space. So what about the room?
It’s big. It’s similar. They expanded some of the causeways. The tours the club took often involved looking at the floor to see where the concrete seams were. Everything else is the same.
I don’t know what to say. Some of the seats under the bowl have been rotated in the correct direction. A small number of properties will add 4 inches to the width if you pay two weeks’ rent. Think of it as premium economy (minus economy).
For the most part, the latest phase of the $400 million Rogers Center renovation looks like a ton of new chairs.
But for anyone interested in the mysteries of the entertainment business, this is a revelation.
“It may look like we’re just sitting there to the naked eye, but just a few months ago there was nothing here,” Blue Jays president Mark Shapiro said Thursday. “A project that was supposed to take a year and a half or two years was completed in six months.”

Behold, Toronto – all-white architecture.
It’s similar to bread and fish, but it’s only sourced from local suppliers and is never free.
Perhaps the kegification of the Jays’ ballpark doesn’t seem all that surprising since we’ve heard so much about it. If you follow the Toronto Blue Jays solely through press releases, you’ll see renovation, renovation, renovation, new craft beer on tap, and baseball.
When announcing the project in 2022, Shapiro called it “turning a stadium into a ballpark.” He did it as much as possible.
The essential ugliness of Rogers Center remains constant. But with the concrete buttresses no longer emphasized, it no longer looks like a luxurious concentration camp.
Renovation work will continue until mid-season. By then, the wealthy will have their own bunkers behind home plate, and Shapiro’s legacy will be secured. In his two years, he transformed one of the most depressing buildings in sports into his 20-story cash register.
So, what should we do?
It was always clear that winning baseball games was not high on the priority list of the current Jays system, including management and ownership.
But it’s important to them to talk about how infrastructure impacts baseball. Shapiro also said Thursday that the facility will “optimally allocate resources to our players mentally, physically and fundamentally, ultimately providing them with a competitive advantage not just for years but for decades.” I worked on it again.
Is it possible that when they were tearing up the seats, they also tore out the television cables that led to Shapiro’s office? Has he watched his team recently? Those benefits he’s talking about aren’t clear.
Infrastructure is manageable. You can keep your promises and achieve your goals.
Baseball teams are a different beast. It’s an art, not a science, and Shapiro just never got the hang of it.
What he has is a genius for extending delivery dates when it suits him.
Would you change contractors mid-job? No, that’s a terrible idea. As far as the Jays are concerned, their current signings are doing well. They have a bunch of spreadsheets showing exactly what this season is going to be like. The data says so.
The Blue Jays’ current philosophy is that even if the results are poor, the methods are sound.
Because, in Rodgers’ light, Shapiro is doing a job that no one in baseball wants to do. Everyone else in the game wants to play baseball. This person is willing to sign a contract.
It’s not nothing. Have you ever had someone install a new cupboard? The first thing they say is that you need a new electrical panel. What are you going to do? Do you want to argue with them?
If you do, I promise it will be done within two weeks. After a year, you’ll be really happy to let them go.
Shapiro tore the Rogers Center down the middle of the stud and had it rebuilt in five months. Anyone who has done a major renovation teeth miracle.
The only problem is that this job was done at the expense of the baseball team.
It’s not in terms of amount. For some reason, the Jays have his seventh-highest salary in Major League Baseball. Most nights I look at that lineup and think, “Where are they spending their money?”
But the renovations have given the Jays confidence that things are going well. True, the team is heading towards a cliff, but they managed to install a new foundation in record time.
Monday is the home opener. Everyone can have fun together for an hour. They eat Gold Flake’s mango drinks and hot dogs, but then the construction excuse stops working.
Unless Shapiro can convince owners that a state-of-the-art parking garage needs to be built, he will be judged solely on team performance after Tuesday. He managed to put it off for nine years. As a result, a wide variety of dishes are now available.
Therefore, as a restaurant, I give Toronto Blue Jays 4 stars. A tempting tidbit before the match. enthusiastic service. It’s a place for all budgets.
However, you may want to leave before the show starts. If you have a lot of nights, you may feel depressed.
