Rock Lobster – Permanently closed

August 5, 2013

Popular TUM alum Rock Lobster have been a massive success to Toronto foodies for such a long time now. Every TUM I have been into, their hawker booth has one of the longest queues. I took my time lining up at their restaurant they opened at Ossington, thinking that over time, the waiting time for […]

A-OK Foods – Permanently closed

August 4, 2013

Last Wednesday night I absent-mindedly forgot to turn off the headlights of my car as I waited for a friend ran an errand. Pouring rain made the night cold and helplessly wet, draining the battery when I stupidly left the headlights on. The supposedly quick errand became almost an hour wait for CAA. Sitting in […]

Grand Electric

August 2, 2013

While reading an article in NOW Magazine, it surprised me to read that Grand Electric was open for lunch. Three times in the past I have meant to try their food but walked away when the queue meant over an hour waiting outside by the street. I have patience to queue up once it’s a […]

#TasteOfJazz @BeachesJazz Festival 2013

July 26, 2013

Long ago, my friend Valerie introduced me to the Beaches Jazz Festival. For a late July weekend, bands setup on the street, playing jazz music for pedestrians milling along a closed-off section of Queen St. East. Along with the lively eclectic mix of music were food stalls from all the local businesses within the area. […]

@ElcatrinCA #Elcatrinlaunch

July 25, 2013

Let me just start this post to say that this meal was one of my most memorable. From the time I approached the patio, to walking in gawking at the elaborate interiors, to the vast variety of food we enjoyed, to the one of the most attentive service, I must say I was beyond impressed. […]

T&T2013

July 25, 2013

I have a bad case of jetlag this time around. For the last few days, I have been unable to catch a wink no matter I was lying for hours on bed. Last Sunday, I forced myself to be awake all day and to tire myself out. My mind was set to head out and […]

The Clubhouse Sandwich Shop

July 10, 2013

From Toronto Life, one new spot caught my eye because of its innovative branding. Something about its graphic sensibilities drew me in and made me start reading the Introduction article of The Clubhouse Sandwich Shop in Toronto Life. Must have been that their branding was red and white too, similar to mine. As I read […]

Momofuku Noodle Bar

July 5, 2013

The infamous Momofuku Noodle Bar has been opened for a several months now and seemed to be going strong on its presence among foodies. When it opened, the onslaught of social media reaction was overwhelming. The anticipation for its opening was too hard to miss. I kept myself in fair distance, waiting for initial craze […]

TKREToronto The Kathi Roll Express

July 2, 2013

When I received an invitation to try Kathi Rolls of The Kathi Rolls Express (TKRE), I admit I knew nothing about it. That was actually the reason I came. Googling the term, I found out that this was street food from India. It was essentially flavorful Indian filling wrapped in a parantha or Indian flatbread. […]

JaBistro

June 29, 2013

If one would ask me what cuisine I would choose other than Filipino, my impromptu response would be Japanese. I have always love the elegant simplicity of their food. Clean to the palette and very photogenic to the eye. Every plated dish was always an art in itself. One of the most trending Japanese places […]
