Things are finally getting back and ebbed to the usual tides. Last week I was able to go downtown and find time to check out a place that does roasted chicken very well. Last week I found myself at The Queen of Chicken. It was easy enough to find as it was just a little […]

Thanksgiving weekend has grown to be a big weekend for me. It is that time of year that I pull out all the stops and cook a whirlwind for my family and friends here in Toronto. I have embraced this Canadian tradition and made it my own. I came from a family that gathers around […]

One very good meal that I have kept to myself was one I had with my friend Helen at Mississauga. I have been invited to Cagney’s several times but I could never find the time to fit it in. Similar to this restaurant, I did not realize with the crazy schedule that I keep, I […]

It has been awhile since I last wrote a post. I must confess that I hit fatigue with the schedule I was keeping. I must come out with it that with this blog I keep two demanding jobs. And just to take two weeks vacation, I had to ramp all the work and compensate before […]

When I got invited to Hy’s Steakhouse for a preview of their new lunch menu, my curiosity was peaked since the email came across as personalized. For this reason, I managed to squeeze it in after a very long work day of writing reports and a photoshoot to boot. You could say by 7pm I […]

It should convince you that I love anything potato. So the media preview of Poutineville was definitely a must-go kind of an […]

Most of the time, I think of my blog like a diary where I pour my heart out thinking I am just writing for self-gratification. I get jolted each time I hear that someone actually read my musings and I turn beet red in pleasure that someone actually paid attention. LOL. After almost four years […]

Most of the time I drive everywhere in Toronto. But today I had an itch to just power up my legs and do the walk. Today Bloor and Yonge Sts were closed off for Open Streets Toronto (Bloor from Spadina to Parliament and Yonge from Bloor to Queen) and I just had to take part […]

Sometimes in the middle of the day, I just feel a craving to go out and take a break from work. Last week, I found it hard to curb this need and I caved in although I had no idea of where to go. I was planning on checking out Urbanspoon but before I checked […]
