La Bella Managua and Aroma
Sunday is a day where I most do nothing and vegetate on the couch, re-energize and watch whatever reruns on TV. This Sunday though my friend gets me out to try Nicaraguan cuisine. I haven’t tried Nicaraguan cuisine before going to La Bella Managua but I have a feeling that I would enjoy their cuisine. […]
Taco Night Market, 86’d at the Drake Hotel
February 15, 2012
Going to 86’d Mondays at the Drake Hotel is becoming a regular indulgence. This past Monday featured a wicked variety of tacos and premium tequila tasting. Sweetening the event even further, free beers were also handed out as it was the Drake Hotel’s 8th birthday. Now with this promise of a good time, how could […]
Ursa at Queen St. West
February 13, 2012
I met brothers Jacob and Lucas Sharkey Pearce late summer last year at 99 Sudbury while doing an assignment for CityBites. On that short time that I spent to check out 99 Sudbury, I got into a lengthy conversation with Lucas how they strive to incorporate nutrition into the dishes they create. This extra mile […]
Kanto by TitaFlips
February 4, 2012
Through Twitter I met a kindred spirit, Diona Joyce, aka Tita Flips. We have never met before Twitter but we instantaneously identified with each other, primarily because of our love for food. It eventually came that we worked together in a photoshooot for her up and coming Kanto, soon-to-be a Filipino foodie haven at Bathurst […]
Popup Sandwiches, 86’d Mondays at the Drake Hotel
January 24, 2012
Countless times I see how people would talk about the day after of 86’d Mondays. I often wondered about it and never had the opportunity to go and check it out until this year. I most often than not have a photography class or workshop that is almost always scheduled on a Monday. 86’d Mondays […]
Arabesque
January 21, 2012
Thursday was a day that reminded me I was in Canada. Finally the snow storm came and it blew hard. That day I was going to meet two friends to cook up a whirlwind of business schemes and I started questioning the idea of meeting at Dufferin farmers market located downtown by Bloor and Dufferin. […]
Sanremo Bakery
September 11, 2011
I came to know of this place from a former boss, Paul, who always shows up to our group meetings with a box of goodies coming from Sanremo Bakery. Each time a different treat, always such a pleasure to taste a cookie that doesn’t taste JUST sweet. There is depth and layers of flavour and […]
Nadège Patisserie
September 6, 2011
Unwilling to go home after hanging out at 99 Sudbury Market, I suggested to my friend Valerie that we go find good coffee. Being at Queen St. West/Dovercourt area, there’s little trouble locating one. My friend immediately suggested we walk further to Trinity Bellwood’s Park to go to this new place she discovered. She tells me […]
O&B Canteen
August 5, 2011
I used to visit King St West all the time about four years ago. But not always for the obvious reason of watching a Broadway show or see an orchestra play, but to visit my favorite outdoors/sports store Mountain Equipment Coop. There was a phase in my early Canadian years that I was addicted to […]
