Bake Shoppe

Last week I got a panic attack as I remembered my friend Diona’s birthday too close to the actual day. Most of the time, I always have a lot of time to contemplate what gift to get, what surprise to plan but this year, I almost let it come without anything. I must confess that […]

Cooking with Zwilling Event at Montecito Restaurant

July 20, 2015

When I got the invitation from Zwilling J.A.Henckel to come for a night to learn some knife skills, I didn’t think twice of going. From the time that I was allowed to use knives, I was lucky enough to use Zwilling as it was my parent’s choice. When I finally have my own place, it […]

Thursday was one of those days that came by so quickly and I was going through my work with one task after another. It was such a blur of things that I forgot to stop for lunch. An hour before it was all said and done, I sat on my desk, satisfied that I plowed […]

Bangkok Nights at Bangkok Garden

July 4, 2015

Recently, I have been invited to come once again to Bangkok Garden for their Bangkok Night event. I have enjoyed their food on other occasions, it was good to be back again. I could always count on them to be consistently good in both their food and their service. That must be the very reason […]

Kensington market never ceases to amaze me. Each time I go, there is another new discovery to my list. This time around I came to try Top Gun Steak. Right in the heart of Kensington market, you can find this restaurant right by southeast of Nassau and Augusta Sts. Reaching the intersection, I find them […]

One of my most favourite dining partners is Diona Joyce, a.k.a. @TitaFlips of Kanto. We share a love of food and each time I share a meal with her, I tend to become more aware of the different flavours as she always try to name what makes a dish so good. And as she figures […]

After an afternoon of walking through the Riverdale Artwalk by the Jimmie Simpson park this past Sunday, Guinevere Pura and I was ready for a very filling dinner. Trying to think of a place that would fit the bill, I thought of Mr. Tonkatsu. I have long wanted to try the place when I read […]

I was invited to come to the newly opened McRamyun at McCaul and Baldwin, just a little north of the AGO. They have their own little spin to instant ramen noodles, pairing it with traditional korean ramen soups and also quirky versions of North American staples. Accompanied by my good friend Jojo, we got to […]

Tosto QuickFire Pizza Pasta

While I do get my share of invites to go to food events, I do sometimes go as the plus one. That afternoon, I was to go to the opening of another Italian pizzeria/wine bar. While I loved their arancini, I didn’t stay too long as it was brimming with people, too busy for my […]
