Carmen – Permanently closed

November 14, 2013

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 […]

Through following one of my favorite foodies, Alexa Clark, I got in CUTCO‘s Sharpen Your Knife Skills event last Wednesday.

Aunties And Uncles After Abe’s BreakfastTV Stint – Closed

June 25, 2013

Today my day started really early. My EyeCandyTO partner, Abe, landed a cooking demo on CityTV’s Breakfast TV and they wanted him ready in the studio by 6:30am. To us, it meant that I have to rise by 4:00am (My brain is always slow to start. I generally have to idle for 30 minutes before […]

White Squirrel

June 23, 2013

One of my guilty pleasures was to constantly snack. I grew up snacking as street food was so available and cheap in the streets of Manila. It was one of the things I miss when I moved to Toronto. But it seems to me that Toronto is finally catching up to that way of eating. […]

Setting the bubbles free with @SodaStream_ca

May 12, 2013

One of the invitations I attended recently was the launch of SodaStream Kraft Flavours. Most of my friends would know how attached I am to my cola.

A Night at the Dish Cooking Studio with Abe

November 3, 2012

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 […]
