AAAAAAAAAAAANDDD... we are back for our second time! Can you get sick of this place, you know what, I didn't! (Sorry, this review was in draft form and forgotten! Our night was May 3)
This time it was with Yelper friends: Bobby, Sara... also saw Yvonne, Tony, and Jen C.
I didn't have advanced tickets (boohoo) so I arrived at 6pm to line up. The line was from the entrance all the way to Bloor's traffic lights. But when they started admitting people, the lineup was very quick. Plus!! There was a fun man at the beginning of the line telling stories about Ancient Egyptian's favourite perfume (which he was holding a sample of!)
The line went by fast, it was very smooth compared to my first time's chaotic experience.
FNL at The ROM 101:
- you need ROM BUCKS to buy drinks/food, they are food tickets
- you cannot bring your drink to the elevator and to some parts of the museum
This second time, compared to my first time:
- ROM bucks can be purchased in LOTS of places!!!! Downstairs, upstairs, between floors, right out the elevators.
- More bars set up. In fact, LOTS. Lots of tables for seating as well, thumbs up up.
- Different food this time too! Sisig Fries: with pig's ears and snouts, and pork belly. How gross is that!!?? We had it, it was amazing.
- MORE FOOD upstairs!!
- Lineups were extremely well managed.
- MORE PLACES ALLOWED FOR DRINKING!
WOW what an improvement. I am so proud of them!
