As part of our annual summer tradition, hubby and I went to the PNE Fair. I aim to document and take pictures of the menu and food vendors inside, which I post here.
We arrived at Playland around 2:00 PM and walked around to take pictures of the food booths and food trucks.
Our first food is the ribs and brisket from Prairie Smoke & Spice BBQ. Last year there were two competing barbecues selling the same meats. This year it's only Prairie BBQ. The brisket is incredible. The rib is good, too, but the real winner is the sweet sauce. The Filipino in me wants a cup of rice.

After an excellent first bite of food at the PNE Fair, we went for red velvet mini donuts. It doesn't taste like red velvet, but it's soft and sweet with the glaze.

We walked around the Playland area and watched the rides, and listened to people glee in excitement. Then, we spotted Jamaican patties from Jamaican Mi Juicy. The beef filling is juicier and better than Morgan's Harbour, but it's not filled all the way.

We walked around PNE and went inside Argodome & Plaza to watch the Knights of Valour. Then, we entered the food arena to check out the vendors. We also explored the Canoe Cultures on the way to Beyond Monet (The Immersive Experience). It made me dizzy.
I asked hubby what he wanted, and he said bacon-wrapped hotdog. I thought it'll be a standard-size hotdog sandwich. Apparently, it's a footlong! 😱 The hotdog was delicious. The bacon is well bacon.

We tried the PNE staple for our next food: Jimmy's Lunch since 1929, and ordered their hamburger and fries. My favourite thing about the burger is the soft sweet bun. The beef was juicy, topped with sweet onion and mustard. The flavour works well together.

We grabbed lemonade slushy from Slush Zone, which I did not enjoy.

Our last food for today is Cheetos Corn Dog. It's usual corndog covered in cheese dusted with crushed Cheetos. It was good. I love the cheese coating and the crunch provided by Cheetos, but if I can only get one corn dog from the PNE Fair, I'll go for the Korean Rice corndog.

After enjoying the corndog, we walked around the fairgrounds and decided to call it a day and go home. Thank God for the beautiful cloudy day. It wasn't unbearably hot.
