Tim Hortons

Right across the street from Country Style lurked a Tim Hortons,which we were later to learn were quite ubiquitous in Canada.

Tim Hortons was named after a famous Canadian hockey player who tragically died in an accident back in 1974. His shops were known for their coffee and donuts. C specifically asked us to try either their donuts and/or Timbits, which are like Donut Holes (from Dunkin Donuts). It is Canada's largest food service operator, surpassing even McDonalds! (See official website here)

We bought a box of 10 Timbits for $1.80; it was an assortment so Bert asked the server to choose whatever she wanted for us. Bert chose a maple glazed donut and I had the iced mocha drink.

Here are the Timbits...some of the flavors I liked like the Honey Dip, the plain glazed and the Sour cream glazed. There was a tang to that last flavor. The chocolate was a bit too cakey though.

Here's our bitten Timbits...gosh that sounds kind of nasty. I want to call them Tim's Bits.

Bits and pieces.

Where's Bert's coffee to go with his donut you wonder? Coming up next...
