What is not good about being in tune to FoodTV network all the time was that it can give you serious cravings. I had this craving for BBQ’d ribs ever since I watched it as the weekend came and it would just not go away. Yesterday night, the craving was so bad, I started searching […]

Irish Embassy

Another group of friends that I am fond of seeing were my classmates from Ryerson. From time to time, despite going our own separate ways, we converge once again to have beer. As I know that the group appreciated robust full-bodied beer, I always look for pubs with a good variety of Irish beers. They […]

A few weeks ago, my good friend Diona Joyce, a.k.a. TitaFlips, was curious about Ethiopian cuisine. I have tried Ethiopian a couple of times and thought it was about time that I add more to that experience by visiting another Ethiopian restaurant. Scouring Urbanspoon, Nazareth caught my eye. With an approval of 92% after almost […]

#LuxMexAvocado with @MissAvaCado and @KennedyCatering

When I received an invitation from Faye Clack Communications Account Manager Joanne D’ Souza to come and attend a brunch to feature avocados, I did not even think about it and accepted the invite.  I am fond of avocados as I grew up eating them as sweet smoothies or ice popsicle.  It was only here […]

This week my friend Diona a.k.a TitaFlips was craving a really hot noodle soup.  With the advent of all ramen places all around Toronto,  I have several places that I suggested.  All of them were not chosen though as when I saw the featured Top 10 New Restaurants 2013 of Toronto Life,  I put all […]

Looking back, it has been just a little over a year since I have hung out with my friend Diona a.k.a TitaFlips.  It doesn’t feel like it was that short a time.  Because of the crazy schedule that she keeps between her storefront, Kanto and catering business TitaFlips,  we have readjusted our foodie cravings for […]

My usual day always start with me teaching my class that would start at 9:30am all the way to 2:00pm.  My break time was mostly spent on clearing my head before I continue my class. Lunch always takes a back seat until my class finishes.  On days that I have to go downtown for EyeCandyTO shoot […]

Greenbelt Birthday Tweet-up #GreenbeltBday

About a week ago I received an invitation from Naomi Carniol of Environmental Defence to come and join them celebrate Ontario’s Greenbelt birthday.  About 8 years ago, protection was given to Ontario’s farmlands, green space, forests, wetlands, watersheds and the small towns around it.  This was to identify acres of land that would be dedicated […]

A day-long EyeCandyTO photoshoot can really work up an appetite.  I normally can go on hours and hours of shooting without feeling any hunger.  I guess that surge of adrenalin and concentration kept me going the whole day.  But once I finished and packed-up for the day, then it would all come crashing in, hunger, […]

These days I cannot keep up with how fast ramen places seem to pop up in Toronto.  Don’t get me wrong as I am not complaining at all.  I am in fact happy of the variety  of choices out there.  This week, I sought to try Santouka Ramen with TitaFlips a.k.a. Diona Joyce.  I had […]
