The first stop in my 4 day trip to the was along the lines of a rest stop. The city of Queensbury popped up at the right time and we were in need of something to eat. It was out of the corner of our eyes where we saw Friendly’s. Friendly’s is an American diner chain that also touts their wide variety of ice cream.

It’s been almost a month since my disastrous Triple Chocolate Blizzard attempt in Ottawa and I was looking for a moment to redeem myself Blizzard-wise. I figured today was the perfect opportunity to do just that.

I first visited this location a year ago during my first trip to Ottawa. When I approached the place, I noticed the long line. For the three people working there, I felt that they weren’t being used to their full capacity. You had one person working hard, while the other two wasted a lot of time trying to figure out things. When you’re rushed, it leads to catastrophe and shoddy product.
