Nuit Blanche 2011
Nuit Blanche, Toronto’s 6th annual sunset-to-sunrise art festival, is one of my most anticipated for the year. It’s when art galleries and independent artists open their doors to the public and people can literally walk all over downtown Toronto and experience art in almost every corner. Toronto is wide-awake the whole night, interacting and participating […]

My Unabashed Love for Garlic
October 1, 2011
I still feel a lot of remorse not being able to attend the First Annual Toronto Garlic Festival at Evergreen Brickworks last weekend. I thought I’d be able to stretch myself to swing by after all the trekking I did in Algonquin the same weekend. But I guess I’m not as nimble anymore as I […]

Diner En Blanc Toronto 2011
September 28, 2011
This past year has such an eye-opener to me of how little I knew Toronto before. Each new thing I discover, I am amazed I lived in Toronto all this time and never knew how many events happen on the underground. I happen to come across the event Diner En Blanc on Facebook by following […]

My Muskoka Weekend and Henrietta’s Bakery
September 26, 2011
If there is one thing that I cannot do without throughout the year, it is my yearly trips to Algonquin park at the height of the fall colors. My friends and I normally spend three days and two nights at Logging Chain Lodge, where we enjoy all the comforts of home. The weekend involved photography […]

Sanremo Bakery
September 11, 2011
I came to know of this place from a former boss, Paul, who always shows up to our group meetings with a box of goodies coming from Sanremo Bakery. Each time a different treat, always such a pleasure to taste a cookie that doesn’t taste JUST sweet. There is depth and layers of flavour and […]

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
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
August 26, 2011
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
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 […]
