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 […]

Dark Horse Espresso Bar at Queen St. West

August 27, 2011

0

What I love most about coffee shops in Toronto is that they seem hell-bent on keeping customers stay for forever and a day.  Very good coffee, free WiFi, comfortable chairs and wooden tables, cozy ambiance of exposed brick wall, an ornate tin ceiling feature and a wide big glass window, the Dark Horse Espresso Bar […]

99 Sudbury Market

What is true this year is that I have discovered a lot of hidden gems in Toronto. After all this time in Toronto, I haven’t really experienced Toronto as I have been now.  It is such a novelty to me, as if I were a tourist myself. This past weekend, another discovery I made is […]

Food Truck Eats A Second Time Around

August 22, 2011

4

The first Food Truck Eats at the Distillery District last July left my belly happy and my feet sore.  Even though I was 15 minutes early for the event, long queues for good food greeted me. So when the second Food Truck Eats event got underway last August 20th, I thought I’d be an hour […]

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 […]

Bar Italia this Summerlicious 2011

July 17, 2011

This summer seems like I don’t have enough time to get around Toronto.  So many things happening the same time, this foodie is way behind my blog entries.  I will try to catch up and that would mean you guys would be immersed with posts from me.  Life of a foodie, never boring ;) I […]

Evergreen Brickworks Food Tour

July 17, 2011

2

It was perfect timing when one day I was hovering looking over many tweets that I saw @ChowBellaTO ‘s invitation to enter a draw to win one of the 8 tickets that they were giving away for the inaugural launch of the Evergreen Brickworks food tour.  It was something that I could not resist.  So […]

Food Truck Eats!

July 2, 2011

1

One of the things I miss about my country is the availability and variety of street food.  To be able to grab a quick, freshly cooked low-maintenance kind of meal is a gift when you have to eat on the run.  It seems that the City of Toronto has strict regulations of what can be […]

Rotary Canada Day International Festival and Ribfest 2011

July 2, 2011

1

After a decade in Canada, you’d think that I would run out of first times.  Despite me living in Scarborough a few years ago, I never really got into trying out the local festivals.  Half the time during the summer, I am somewhere else, driving and exploring far out of the GTA.  This year, I […]

Future’s Bakery and Cafe

June 26, 2011

1

One of my most favorite places in Toronto is this casual Bakery/Pub/Cafe up at the Annex, Future’s Bakery and Cafe.  I came upon it about three years ago through an internet meetup.  This place is always brimming with people.  With really cheap prices, free WiFi,  it’s a haven for UofT students on a budget.  A […]
