Drums N Flats

Today I was a little bit indulgent.  Maybe it was the sunny day that has me in such a good mood.  Maybe it was that I have some hours to kill in the middle of the day.  Today I indulged in another guilty pleasure which was chicken wings.  Today, I quieted down guilt with a […]

The Starving Artist

For two weeks now I have been craving and whining about being too tired to wake up early to get my Eggs Benedict. I finally have a free day today and the first thing I planned for it was a brunch to pacify my need for poached eggs and creamy Hollandaise. It was good that […]

Great Burger Kitchen

A day-long EyeCandyTO photoshoot can really work up an appetite.  I normally can go on hours and hours of shooting without feeling any hunger.  I guess that surge of adrenalin and concentration kept me going the whole day.  But once I finished and packed-up for the day, then it would all come crashing in, hunger, […]

Now that the year was starting to to feel normal,  I am back to my usual routine.  That routine included  keeping an eye on the delightful treats I get when I go to 86’d Mondays with Ivy Knight at the Drake Hotel.  It seemed to me that there were a lot of foodies attending last […]

North 44 – Temporarily closed

To indulge in more Winterlicious, Abe selected North 44 for us to try.  The main attraction for this restaurant was that it was owned and operated by Chef Mark McEwan.  Comparing the Winterlicious offerings of North 44 and Bymark (another McEwan restaurant in downtown Toronto), we were unanimous in selecting North 44.  This was because […]

My friend Jojo has tried to make sure we are going to dine during Winterlicious since last December.  Last year I have brought him with me trying out Prohibition Gastrohouse . This year, he was on anticipation when Winterlicious came back for this season.  This time around, we went out dining at Pangaea with two […]

Saving Grace

This weekend, I find myself with some free days.  I thought I would begin spending this free time with a good brunch.  My friend, Diona a.k.a. TitaFlips, once talked about a bustling place at Dundas, near Ossington.  Each day as she passed by to go and from work, Saving Grace, was filled with people.  I […]

Following @Foodie411 a.k.a. Joel Solish on Twitter and Facebook can give you hunger pangs. Since last month, I have planned going to Rose and Sons as I watched Joel post picture after picture of what he was enjoying at this little joint up at Dupont and Davenport.  I finally made it today, deciding to go […]

Duke Of York

One of the things I have learned this week was that when you suddenly change your dinner plans in the middle of the dinner hour, the chances of getting a table at another restaurant was slim to none.  Abe and I found ourselves in this predicament just a few days ago and it was a […]

The White Brick Kitchen – Permanently closed

The first time I attempted to try The White Brick Kitchen, I had no hope of getting near it.  I didn’t know it was the same day as the annual Toronto Santa Claus Parade.  Bloor was shut down to give way for the event and I was stuck going round and round to get myself […]
