Breakfast & Lunch at a Canadian Truck Stop ☕️🍔🍽️ Flying J Travel Centre

[@demonofdeath19]

As a son of a truck driver I love the community. Everyone for the most part are very friendly, and love the road. Even now when I visit truck stops on my travels with friends they still remember from when I was a kid, and occasionally tell me my dad was just in the area. They take care of their own. My dad always tries to help if its something he can do if he sees someone having trouble. Even if its just help with a meal. The truck stop in Iowa is great I love it.

Oh yeah Ken,hanging round truck stops looking for Canadian Bacon.

He looks like a Kenny fan

[@BiggRich95]

He looks too soft for that line of work

[@joannegray5138]

That was an interesting change from your usual format, I really enjoyed it. I'd love to see more videos like this xx

Joanne Gray I agree. I totally love these videos.

Unfortunately,I'm not a trucker,but,I absolutely love and cherish small town diners and truckstop restaurants!

Right on

[@bradleygimbrone7983]

I am curious about one thing they didn't say anything about you being there all day ? !

[@PamelaWarren56]

Maybe staff switched so they didn't notice.

[@michaelnewton2617]

It's a truck stop, some truckers spend the day there. It isn't unusual.

[@jonathanstancil8544]

I have recently discovered your channel, Ken. I'm a trucker from Tennessee and used to run between the GTA and Detroit frequently. Been to the Flying J many times. Great place to stop, good parking, showers (free with 50 US gallons or 200 liters, or around $15 if no fuel) and...food! I too heartily recommend the Canadian Benedict! Canadians have a reputation for being friendly and most I have met uphold that well. I miss going to Canada sometimes but my current operation keeps me closer to home, so that's nice. I do need to pop into Timmie's for a Double-Double and a crueller though. Our US brands just aren't the same. Cheers!

[@jeffdubuque5622]

Clearly you have never ate at a truck stop Best food I have ever had and I was 15 it the time

[@patg4246]

Suggestion for you Ken: Why don't you ask a Truck Driver what their favorite places they go to on their journeys? And try them out. Sound interesting!!

[@123MPU]

Hey KBD! Greetings from Germany. The Wiener Schnitzel is a inofficial brandmark of his own. If you Name your Schnitzel "Wiener" it must be calf meat! If you got no Calf as meat youll have to Name it Wiener Style Schnitzel. Do me a favour and visit Germany for the good food and great food communitys!

[@vaunmalone3064]

the flying j looks like it really knows how to run a great business. the harvest restuarant food looks fantastic. i love your review - surely unique focusing on truck stops etc. there are not enough places for truckers to pull in to. good luck on your travels.

Being a retired long haul trucker, I do occasionally take a load for a friend that runs out of hours and needs it delivered on time.

Hey Ken..can you do a video on the prep work you do before you fly your drone...I’m looking to get an advanced license....would be interested in hearing what you thought of the test as I’ve heard it’s difficult!

[@JPLUSLSTUDIOS]

Also...how did you find the registration process for your drone as it’s over 250g? Did you go with the advance license or the basic license?

[@robpeters5204]

That's just near to me. I live in Kitchener Ont and I used to love going to Tu Lane truck stop just near Cambridge Ont. They had the 24 hour breakfast that I loved and the roast beef dinner. They had the regular portion and the truckers portion. It was huge. They closed down about 15-20 years ago. There's nothing like Canadian bacon(back bacon). They were last of the small mom and pop truck stops. There is just big corporate stops now. Glad you liked our Canuck hospitality. Like everywhere you'll have good and bad services from people. Glad you had a good experience.

[@Keefster]

I can't wait to see you checking out Iowa. I grew up there before moving to Buffalo, NY a few years ago. You'll be near Davenport - if you get a chance check out The Iowa Machine Shed restaurant for a good mid-western meal. It's a really good farmer - farm to table restaurant. If you plan to head to the capital Des Moines, you have to check out Zombie Burger. Their original location in downtown is all zombie themed. They have a mall location in Coralville which is about 45 minutes away from the truck stop you mentioned. It's the same food, you just don't get the full theme experience. They have unique burgers and definitely get a basket of fries with Zombie Sauce. If you want to continue the gas station theme Casey's General Store is a BIG deal in Iowa known for their pizza takeout. You can find a Casey's in almost every small or big town in Iowa. Also in Des Moines if you want something really interesting, check out Fong's Pizza - crab rangoon pizza, kung pao chicken pizza and General Tso's chicken pizza. They were featured on The Travel Channel's Pizza Paradise a few years ago. Have fun.

[@KBDProductionsTV]

Thank you for all these great suggestions :D

Love the visit to Flying ( J’s ) here in the US. We have fast food at ours, not sit down restaurants! I’m leery of pickles too. Liking them more now that I’ve learned to make my own. Great job!

[@jamesbaxterinsideoutsideim1765]

These videos I love because they show more of the blue highways of North America as well as unique places to visit and different venues for eats. I’d have oj,coffee double double of course,poached eggs on the runny side bacon and rye toast. I like balsamic dressing and Al Capone’s nickname was Scarface.

Hello Ken. Enjoying the series. If you want to know more about the Trucking life I'd recommend listening to the USA overnight radio show RedEye radio. Originating station is WBAP in Dallas /Fort Worth. If you want you can listen on the app if you can't fine it on the dial. They do politics, news and social commentary mainly aimed at drivers and night shift workers. No doubt they'll be represented at Iowa. Gas as of Dec 16th in Winnipeg is 99.9/L CDN in Winnipeg for reg. The eggs benedict a good choice. Myself hamsteak and an omelette for breakfast would be nice. Thanks for the video and all the best during the holidays sir .
