"Taco Boyz Express" has opened beside the Moosehead Lounge (where Tim Hortons used to be located) on the TD Station concourse. The menu includes tacos, burritos and a few dessert options like churros and deep fired cheesecake.
It's a nice addition to the building's very ordinary concession lineup.

The Sea Dogs and the Saint John Firefighters announced a new partnership on Friday. From Facebook:

The Sea Dogs will play home games the nights of Feb. 6-7.
NEW TECH COMING
Streams of Sea Dogs games from TD Station are expected to be upgraded soon.
The Sea Dogs have new cameras and production equipment on the way. The new gear has not yet arrived, so the team's games this past weekend looked the same as previous years. That should change soon.
The Sea Dogs – and all QMJHL teams – are now being streamed through FloHockey. It's the first of a seven year deal between the streaming service and the league.
BACK AT IT
The Sea Dogs will play their next three games on the road.
This weekend, the Sea Dogs will take on the Halifax Mooseheads on Friday and Saturday at Scotiabank Centre. Both games have 7 p.m. starts.
The Mooseheads opened the season with a home-and-home with the Charlottetown Islanders this past weekend. The Moose fell 4-1 at Eastlink Centre on Friday before rebounding with a 5-4 shootout win on home ice Saturday.
After this weekend's games, the Sea Dogs will be the opponent for the Moncton Wildcats' home opener on Oct. 4, which will include a championship banner raising ceremony.
The Sea Dogs return to TD Station on Sunday, Oct. 5 when they host the Chicoutimi Sagueneens.
HENRY ON SLAMMERS
Joshua Henry has joined the Woodstock Slammers of the NCDC.
Henry, who played one game with the Sea Dogs last season, registered an assist in two games with the Slammers this weekend. Woodstock is winless in five games.
The 17-year-old, a sixth-round pick of Saint John in the 2024 QMJHL Entry Draft, spent most of last season with the MHL's Fredericton Red Wings. Henry is committed to Lindenwood University of the NCAA in 2027.
The St. Stephen County Moose, meanwhile, won their NCDC opener on Friday, defeating the CT Chiefs North 5-2 at the Garcelon Civic Center. The Moose fell to the Chiefs, 6-5, in Biddeford, Maine on Saturday.
