Amadeu’s

June 1, 2013

Growing up, fried fresh fish just plainly seasoned with sea salt was almost my main daily fare. Fish being cheap back home, it made sense to always have it as I have a relatively big family. Coming to Canada, I lost that luxury. Fresh fish here was hard to come by unless you were willing […]

Electric Mud BBQ – Permanently closed

May 31, 2013

What was a big deal in Toronto was the first day when it would hit 30°C. Yesterday was such a day. Just a tad away at 28°C, the humidity factored in, it sure felt like summer. What was also true was that it rained heavily during the early morning hours. So even when the temperature […]

@CulinaryAdvCo Season3 Launch Party

May 23, 2013

I have met Chef Scott Savoie during my stops at 86’d Mondays at the Drake Hotel. Every time I see him there, he always welcomed with a warm hug and a jolly smile. Through our conversations on those nights I learned that his business was on unique food tours in and around Toronto. The Culinary […]

#SheratonToast Around the World @SheratonCentre

May 21, 2013

Last week, my EyeCandyTO partner, Abe Wornovitzky and I came to know about Sheraton Centre Toronto’s launch of Toast Around the World Sheraton Social Hour from a fellow foodie, Vicky Weiss a.k.a @momwhoruns. The launch, hosted by Ben Mulroney, was simultaneous at different Sheraton Hotels worldwide. This #SheratonToast social hour will be a regular event […]

Aft Kitchen & Bar @Aft_bar

May 14, 2013

What is not good about being in tune to FoodTV network all the time was that it can give you serious cravings. I had this craving for BBQ’d ribs ever since I watched it as the weekend came and it would just not go away. Yesterday night, the craving was so bad, I started searching […]

Irish Embassy

May 13, 2013

Another group of friends that I am fond of seeing were my classmates from Ryerson. From time to time, despite going our own separate ways, we converge once again to have beer. As I know that the group appreciated robust full-bodied beer, I always look for pubs with a good variety of Irish beers. They […]

Café Crêpe – Permanently closed

May 13, 2013

One good friend I studied photography at Ryerson was Guinevere Pura. I always was impressed with her eclectic taste in photography and we got together to see some galleries participating this year’s CONTACT Photography Festival. We intended to see a gallery at Church and College. Unfortunately they closed early. Knowing Ryerson have its own exhibition, […]

Setting the bubbles free with @SodaStream_ca

May 12, 2013

One of the invitations I attended recently was the launch of SodaStream Kraft Flavours. Most of my friends would know how attached I am to my cola. So when I saw what SodaStream was all about, I could not resist checking them out. SodaStream is essentially a home-soda maker and they have a variety of […]

Friday Night Live @ROMToronto #FNLROM

May 10, 2013

Because of my friend Diona Joyce a.ka.a TitaFlips, I came to know of Friday Night Live at the ROM. Opening its 3rd season, ROM open its doors after regular viewing hours to host an event for the late night crowd. From its usual distinguished and quiet stature, after hours this museum shows another façade that […]

Johnny’s Hamburgers

May 3, 2013

Being a teacher, sometimes there were days that were harder than most. This happens when I teach too much theoretical concepts and not practical chemistry. Too many theories to put in my head and when my students ask for me to explain harder concepts, it really can get your head pounding. Days like that, I […]
