One of my most favorite places in Toronto was the Indigo Store at the Manulife Center.  I could literally entertain myself in the store going from shelf to shelf, stop by Starbucks for a latte and then go back and browse in the magazines section or their novelty items.  There are so many things to […]

The White Brick Kitchen – Permanently closed

Last Friday, I was walking along Queen St. West about the Parkdale neighbourhood, wanting to try some BBQ. Knowing that the place was trending in Urbanspoon, we came early and was around the area at about 6pm. Walking in, I was already asked if I wanted to be on list and might have a 45 […]

Knowing I had an errand to do by Kensington Market, I searched Urbanspoon to see what would be open for a very late lunch. No matter how much I frequent Kensington, there was still another restaurant that I haven’t been into.  This afternoon, I was in the mood for pizza and I headed towards Pizzeria […]

For two weeks now I have been craving and whining about being too tired to wake up early to get my Eggs Benedict. I finally have a free day today and the first thing I planned for it was a brunch to pacify my need for poached eggs and creamy Hollandaise. It was good that […]

It has been several days that Abe and I were contemplating of finding Eggs Benedict.  Seeing a diner just right beside where the Dareseeker event was,  Abe and I decided to try it out hoping to find this breakfast item.  It was hard to miss this diner as it has that old-world feel of a […]

Now that the year was starting to to feel normal,  I am back to my usual routine.  That routine included  keeping an eye on the delightful treats I get when I go to 86’d Mondays with Ivy Knight at the Drake Hotel.  It seemed to me that there were a lot of foodies attending last […]

My friend Jojo has tried to make sure we are going to dine during Winterlicious since last December.  Last year I have brought him with me trying out Prohibition Gastrohouse . This year, he was on anticipation when Winterlicious came back for this season.  This time around, we went out dining at Pangaea with two […]

Saving Grace

This weekend, I find myself with some free days.  I thought I would begin spending this free time with a good brunch.  My friend, Diona a.k.a. TitaFlips, once talked about a bustling place at Dundas, near Ossington.  Each day as she passed by to go and from work, Saving Grace, was filled with people.  I […]

Following @Foodie411 a.k.a. Joel Solish on Twitter and Facebook can give you hunger pangs. Since last month, I have planned going to Rose and Sons as I watched Joel post picture after picture of what he was enjoying at this little joint up at Dupont and Davenport.  I finally made it today, deciding to go […]

The thing about having the pleasure of having a Catalan for a best friend was that I was very much pampered with food when I visit Barcelona.  Throughout my stay, I would indulge on food where the locals go.  When I go home, what I feel bordered on homesickness, wanting to recreate the memories of […]
