The Future of Catalonia’s Casteller

December 2, 2013

As I open my month-long show Catalonia’s Castellers, at the Oakwood Public Library today, it brings back fond memories of things that happened that I can never immortalize in images.  As I have once said before, I went home with about 120 Gig of images and it was painful to choose one over the other.

Tandoori Flame

I rediscovered once again my liking for Indian cuisine.  These days, I frequent the Airport area and my friend Arsha, introduced me to an AYCE Tandoori Flame.  As we walked in, I prayed they would have my favorite, Palak Paneer (spinach and paneer in a thick curry sauce).  Even if it burns me, I always […]

The Pie Commission

I found myself on the south-western part of Etobicoke a few weeks ago as I searched for unique Christmas gifts. I tend to go far and wide when I want to find quirky and unique gifts for family and friends. Shopping tends to build up my appetite and I must admit I am not too […]

Carmen – Permanently closed

With me running around, trying to set up things for my upcoming exhibition, Catalonia Castellers, I have pangs of homesickness for Barcelona now and then.  There are a lot of things I love about Barcelona and of course that includes its food.  Last Wednesday was one day where the craving was bad.  Lately, there have […]

Ajuker Fried Chicken – Permanently closed

This post is long overdue. I once swung by my favorite dining partner, Diona, a.k.a. TitaFlips and as we hanged out, a craving started forming. To be correct about it, it was Diona who started craving something Asian. She was still pregnant then and the lil’ boss inside her agrees when she goes for familiar […]

Last Thursday was Bangkok Garden’s launch of their newly renovated bar and lounge. I first came across this restaurant last December when I was invited to attend Yonge St. BIA’s December festivities. Bangkok Garden is neatly tucked by Yonge and Elm St., away from the throngs of pedestrians that always fill the sidewalk of Yonge. […]

I Sharpened My Skills with CUTCO

Through following one of my favorite foodies, Alexa Clark, I got in CUTCO‘s Sharpen Your Knife Skills event last Wednesday.  Set-up in a classroom-setting, the affair was brimming with foodies eager to learn proper and practical techniques of how to use and care of knives.  While I am a big fan of cooking and fussing […]

High Street Fish & Chips

The last few weeks have been really hectic for me.  Finally the last bit on my to-do list was done and I found myself close by High Street Fish & Chips.  I have read about them before and wanted to try them out.  The first time I came there, I got lost and the second […]

Lady Marmalade

As most Sunday mornings go, the idea of a brunch would surely get you up from slumber. If that is your plan this weekend, I recommend that you swing by Lady Marmalade. One should be prudent to be there early though as it is popular. Not even 10am last Sunday morning, there was already a […]
