The thing about being a teacher in the morning and being a photographer in the afternoon, it was almost always a guarantee that it was the reason that you skip lunch.  That was what has happened today once again.  It was past 5:00 pm and I am yet to eat lunch.  I did plan my […]

Weslodge Saloon – Permanently closed

November 5, 2012

0

If there was one thing that was consistent about critic reviews about Weslodge Saloon,  it was that it consistently enthralled patrons of its food, interiors and its service.  It has gotten me curious to search for it and get more information about the food that they serve. Seeing their website, I was hooked as I […]

If there is one restaurant that my EyeCandyTO partner Abraham Wornovitzky never stops talking about, it is DT Bistro.  He never fails to comment how the desserts were beyond good.  This past Halloween night, we finally found time to try it and now I am a believer. As we walked in through the doors, your […]

I have met my EyeCandyTO partner Abraham Wornovitzky about 3 years ago in a one-week intensive food styling course  at George Brown College.  Back then I thought it would be useful for me to enroll for the course to understand a food stylist’s perspective.  I thought it would make me a better photographer to understand the […]

A Night of USA Rice, Molecular Cuisine with Chef John Placko

October 28, 2012

When FayeClack Communications Inc. sent me an email to join a night of Molecular Cuisine and a demonstrations on different use of USA Rice, it didn’t take me too long to decide.  You could say the email grabbed me in two levels. The lab geek in me came out peeking and I doubt there would […]

When about 200 chefs band together to get their voices heard to Stop the Mega Quarry, the crowd comes.  Just like what happened a year ago at Foodstock, foodies came in droves to support the efforts to stop the proposal to build a limestone mega quarry at Melancthon township.  When last year the attendance was […]

It doesn’t feel like it has been a year since the time that I have posted what happened during our pumpkin carving party last year. Just I have mentioned then, this year is our 10th year of doing this tradition, where we invite family and friends to carve pumpkins together.  This weekend we were at […]

The Doughnut Battle at 86’d Mondays at the Drake Hotel

One of my guilty pleasures was to dive into the gourmet indulgence that was 86’d Mondays at the Drake Hotel.  I haven’t been coming to these regular Monday events for a while this past summer as I have been away for a vacation and have to double time to catch up with work when I […]
