And during the first year of the pandemic, the two ordered a banana split to go.
Another year, when Brad's job took him to Dubai, Susan went to Dairy Queen by herself - taking a single bite and putting the rest in the freezer for when he returned home a few days later. When Brad was in Montreal for work, the two visited Dairy Queens in their respective cities and ate the dessert over the phone. The two later married and moved to Toronto, and their tradition continued. Even then, the two could not foresee how meaningful the tradition would become.īrad and Susan Wall Brad and Susan met during college at a summer concert in Ottawa, Canada. But by the next year, they were in a relationship, and shared a split to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the first night they met. Brad was the only one who took her up on the offer.Īt the time, neither Brad nor Susan meant for the gesture to be romantic. (He would later become an audio visual technician.)Īt the end of the night, Brad, Susan and their friends made a pit stop to Dairy Queen, where Susan ordered a banana split for the table to share. Brad, who was 19, and Susan, who was 20, found themselves in the same friend group while attending a concert at the annual Central Canada Exhibition.īrad quickly took notice of Susan's bubbly personality she was intrigued by his admiration of the concert's sound and lighting equipment. "No matter how much we've grown and changed over the years, this brings back that fresh puppy love we had way back when," Susan, an event manager in Toronto, told NPR. Both were tuned into basketball.For Brad and Susan Wall, a banana split from Dairy Queen is their version of a time machine.
There are two flatscreen televisions on the walls, one near the entrance and one in the back. The interior is bright and fast-foodish, but with cushioned seating. I'm giving this place four stars because I had a better experience than at the Corona DQ and because the food was good enough for me to dine here again the next time I'm at the Staten Island Ferry Terminal. (The Corona DQ is a rip-off compared to this DQ.) My soda was medium and the medium here was larger than the alleged medium at the Corona DQ (which isn't saying much). The fries tasted fine and were more plentiful than the fries I got with my combo meal at a DQ in Corona recently. The Mushroom & Swiss tasted good, although the bun looked like it had been flattened/squished a bit. It was so hot that I decided to throw it out after two bites and buy a Mushroom & Swiss Grillburger for $4.89. into it: It has hot sauce that is very hot - too hot for me. The burger had two patties and looked good, but I didn't realize why it was called "Flame Thrower" until I bit. I was here for lunch today, and I ordered the #2 combo meal: Flame Thrower Grillburger, fries and soda.
