York Farmers Market

April 4, 2015

1

For the past seven years of living at Yonge and Finch, I never stopped at York Farmers Market. I often would pass by it and I was always in a hurry to go somewhere that I clearly have taken it for granted. It is funny how I often wished there was something like York Farmers […]

Peters On Eglinton

For the longest time that I have taken up residence in Toronto, I did not know that I have high school friends here in the same city. I was so busy building my roots that I never really sought out to find my old high school friends. The funniest thing is that I even have […]

A Tale of Two Steakhouses

For the past Licious seasons, I have been doing my tasting with two sets of friends. One with a favourite friend to talk shop with, Jojo along with Raymond and Randall. The other group was with Diona Joyce, a.k.a. TitaFlips, her husband Trevor, and her sister-in-law Dee. As I have many opportunities to try different […]

Fancy Franks

Sometimes, I find myself wanting a simple snack.  Nothing too heavy but with enough weight that would tide me over.  What I find mostly in Toronto that in-between snacks are more of a sweet nature.  My main problem is that I lean toward salty and savoury and most snacking places tend to have sweet on […]

I have lost count how many times I have said that I have been busy with my photography lately.  I was with a client who was authoring a cookbook and it took us quite some time to finish the project.  I am quite elated that it is finally done! On our last day my EyeCandyTO […]

Paramount Fine Foods

Last Friday was a day that I had a date with my dentist. The chore suddenly got interesting when I noticed that the prominent restaurant at the east side of the building changed once again. Over the years I have visited my dentist, it has changed into several businesses. But I think this time around, this […]

Curing cabin fever with a trek to Kensington Market

January 19, 2015

I seriously had cabin fever last weekend. When I was done with my Photoshopping duties, I literally was giddy, running out the door and I have one thing on my mind. Spend the rest of the day in Kensington Market and have a serious food trip. And that was how I spent literally the rest […]

Farmer’s Daughter Eatery

From time to time, I have this geeky need to just talk about photography and be all technical about it. I must admit that I keep this need just bubbling beneath the surface. But when I meet my old friends from Ryerson, it just comes out in the open and I indulge in every minute. […]

Chef Aleem Syed Pop-up at The Midpoint

December 12, 2014

From time to time, I get posts and comments from readers and one post that stood out was an invitation to come to a pop-up event to showcase Chef Aleem Syed. I have already seen writeups about the Chef from Toronto Life (see article here) and he definitely piqued my interest of what his food […]

Han Ba Tang

A few weeks ago, I finally got my wish. I often prayed that food events that I go to would somehow make it to North York. That came into fruition with an invitation from Han Ba Tang. For a change, I only needed 10 minutes to get to an event! That already was a treat! […]
