The thing about having the pleasure of having a Catalan for a best friend was that I was very much pampered with food when I visit Barcelona.  Throughout my stay, I would indulge on food where the locals go.  When I go home, what I feel bordered on homesickness, wanting to recreate the memories of […]

Johnny Jackson – Permanently closed

December 28, 2012

2

Ever since I saw this Johnny Jackson feature from TheGridTO, I have planned and schemed to swing by this late night joint. I thought it was a novel idea for a late night snack back to keep it simple by creating boxed comfort foods. Taking away the difficulty of a balancing act of holding on […]

Santouka Ramen and G for Gelato and Espresso Bar

These days I cannot keep up with how fast ramen places seem to pop up in Toronto.  Don’t get me wrong as I am not complaining at all.  I am in fact happy of the variety  of choices out there.  This week, I sought to try Santouka Ramen with TitaFlips a.k.a. Diona Joyce.  I had […]

I am quite joyous with the recent surge of Asian cuisine in Toronto.  Be it Filipino or the never-ending surge of ramen-centric restaurants, these were the flavors that I was accustomed to growing up.  To have a variety of authentic Asian cuisine within Toronto was a cure to homesickness and cravings that would never go […]

Hawker Bar (permanently closed) and Yogurty’s

I have a confession to make.  Each time I go with a food trippin’ with TitaFlips a.k.a Diona Joyce, we almost always end up trying two restaurants in one outing.  We never really plan on being that indulgent but it seemed to me, when there was no devil’s advocate to stop eating, Diona and I […]

Chop Steakhouse Bar

One of the highlights of my week was attending the opening of Toronto’s Chop Steakhouse.  Didn’t take me too long to decide to go after I received my invitation.  What was a little bit daunting was that I was to go alone as my EyeCandyTO partner Abraham was out of the country for a while.  […]

My third home in Toronto was the Del Rosario’s abode.  Tere and I have been friends since my arrival in Canada that I almost feel she’s my long-lost sibling.  We have discovered and learned Toronto together and over a decade after, that friendship goes on strong.  Tere has solidified it making me the godmother of […]

On my first bout of a photography class at Ryerson, I have met my good friend Yana.  We discovered then we have more than one thing in common other than the class.  We saw each other alight from the subway at Finch station and it turned out we lived in the same building.  Funny how […]

Rasher – Permanently closed

November 21, 2012

My usual routine to wake myself each morning was to check all the subscriptions I have on my Inbox. Last Tuesday morning, while trying to will myself to start my day, I started reading Toronto Life’s latest post and one recent opening caught my eye. It was the introduction of Rashers, an all-bacon sandwich shop […]

Most weekends I still work and this past weekend was no exception.  There is indeed no rest for the wicked!  What was good about this job was having to work for a good friend and client TitaFlips aka Diona Joyce also entailed good eats before we started the shoot.  We initially planned on eating brunch […]
