At the end of June, myself and my staff fun day team managed to pull off one of the most adventure-packed staff fun days to date. Using our powers of persuasion, we managed to have a day full of excitement capped off with gourmet-good food.
We started off at 9am with a session of laser tag at Alpha Strike. That shit is sooo much fun! I have never squealed and giggled so much in my life -- and being able to take down my boss didn't hurt ether! When we were finished, we boarded an Ambasstours double decker to take us to our next destination: Kartbahn in Bayer's Lake. We speed around the track for an hour or so and once we had our fill of burnin' rubber, got back on the bus to pick up lunch - a gourmet brown bag from jane's on the common.
We had preordered the week before from an incredible selection of smoked salmon, roast beef, turkey, ham and cheese and veggie sandwiches. With these came a drink and two side salads; broccoli with dried cherries, fennel and nuts and a tasty orzo and chickpeas with sundried tomatoes. To top it all off: a decadently dense gluten free brownie, which I took home and later warmed and topped with vanilla fro-yo and fresh raspberries.
If you're ever looking for a great quality lunch or need a change from fast food, this is the spot to go. Fer real, this part was the highlight of my day, and wayyy better than take-out pizza!
I really, really wanted a nice healthy dinner. I was on my own for supper, the first in a long time, which meant that my dins destination was entirely up to me. I wandered into Pete's Frootique, and did my usual once a week exploration session for research purposes.
