I have been a fan of Caplansky’s discovering them through FoodTruckEats events, that when my friend Diona Joyce, aka TitaFlips asked me to come with her to go to Caplansky’s Delicatessen, the invite didn’t need any arm twisting.  I was planning to go for their smoked meat sandwich towers but when I got there, something […]

The foodie lesson that I most used after the Eating Italy Food Tours in Rome was how to spot a good gelateria in Rome. Our guide Domenico Scola saved the best for last and sat us down outside Gelateria Giolitti a Testaccio before we indulged. He made us understand that the gelato industry was big […]

What any candy store to a photographer was a store like Vistek. Because of my plans to travel, I thought I’d give myself a treat and grab myself a better camera bag. Such was my disappointment when I discovered that what I was lusting for a few weeks was actually out of stock.  My shopping […]

Again I found myself at Leslieville as I try to discover the hidden secret of the east side of downtown Toronto.  Although saying this next find I visited as hidden might be a misnomer.  Lately I find that a lot of people have checked it out.  Naturally, curious person that I was, I went to […]
