When I received an invitation from Faye Clack Communications Account Manager Joanne D’ Souza to come and attend a brunch to feature avocados, I did not even think about it and accepted the invite. I am fond of avocados as I grew up eating them as sweet smoothies or ice popsicle. It was only here […]

One of the foodies I follow was @bnbutterscotch a.k.a. Nicolas Wong. He emailed me asking if I were interested in attending a food event. Having chatted with him for a while now, the first interest was just putting a face into the Twitter handle. Just because of that, I accepted the invitation. Days later, I […]

One of my most favorite places in Toronto was the Indigo Store at the Manulife Center. I could literally entertain myself in the store going from shelf to shelf, stop by Starbucks for a latte and then go back and browse in the magazines section or their novelty items. There are so many things to […]

Last Friday, I was walking along Queen St. West about the Parkdale neighbourhood, wanting to try some BBQ. Knowing that the place was trending in Urbanspoon, we came early and was around the area at about 6pm. Walking in, I was already asked if I wanted to be on list and might have a 45 […]

Unfortunately, I chose a night where the restaurant closed its doors for walk-ins as they were hosting a private function. Big disappointment […]

Knowing I had an errand to do by Kensington Market, I searched Urbanspoon to see what would be open for a very late lunch. No matter how much I frequent Kensington, there was still another restaurant that I haven’t been into. This afternoon, I was in the mood for pizza and I headed towards Pizzeria […]

I found myself in Pickering last night. My sister, Ayen, asked me to drive her there to do an errand. One thing I could never resist on doing while in Pickering was swing by Chef Yan’s Chinese Food. I discovered this take-out Chinese joint years ago when I used to visit Pickering twice a […]

Looking back, it has been just a little over a year since I have hung out with my friend Diona a.k.a TitaFlips. It doesn’t feel like it was that short a time. Because of the crazy schedule that she keeps between her storefront, Kanto and catering business TitaFlips, we have readjusted our foodie cravings for […]
