Lola’s Kusina – Permanently closed

November 12, 2014

0

Last Sunday I found myself driving along Rexdale Blvd area on my way back to North York from Mississauga. It was at a time that was close to dinner and it would be another 20 minutes to home. As I know I have no energy to fix myself something at home by the time that […]

Friday Nights at ROM and Dutch Dreams

November 10, 2014

0

Friday was one of those rare times when I can hang out with my sister. She always comes as a unit, with Jeremy and Gabrielle usually in tow. Friday, it was just her and me and we decided to spend it at the Royal Ontario Museum. Up to the end of this month, Friday nights […]

La Hacienda

I promise this would be the last bday-related post…I am not even spelling the word (insert unsure sweet smile here). I finally got to try La Hacienda as my EyeCandyTO business partner, Abe Wornovitzky, treated me to a dinner here after a successful shoot. Let me just say that I am feeling more than pampered […]

Birthday blessings

My birthday is always been a long affair once I got settled in Toronto. My life has grown to be a collage of all the people I care about and things I am passionate about. And when my birthday comes up, all of them collide, reminding me of how blessed I am with family and […]

Bang Bang Ice Cream

October 26, 2014

Around 10PM my birthday night, despite all the food that I enjoyed, I was really compelled to give Bang Bang Ice Cream. It was the last thing I wanted to enjoy my birthday night and my friend Jojo was game.  After the food event we went through, I still want to pass by this ice […]

One of the food events that I was in on my birthday was Foodee Toronto’s official launch. Organized by the Mint Agency, taking place at Brassaii, it was an interesting concept of curating some of the best restaurants in Toronto and making their food available for delivery for corporate functions. Why not? For most of […]

I have been a fan of Chef Nuit for so long that when I heard that she opened another restaurant in Toronto, it was something I definitely wanted to check out.  This time around, she was back at the Financial district, opening Pai Northern Thai Kitchen at Duncan St and Adelaide St. For my first […]

The Queen of Chicken – Permanently closed

Things are finally getting back and ebbed to the usual tides. Last week I was able to go downtown and find time to check out a place that does roasted chicken very well. Last week I found myself at The Queen of Chicken. It was easy enough to find as it was just a little […]

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving weekend has grown to be a big weekend for me.  It is that time of year that I pull out all the stops and cook a whirlwind for my family and friends here in Toronto. I have embraced this Canadian tradition and made it my own. I came from a family that gathers around […]

Cagneys

One very good meal that I have kept to myself was one I had with my friend Helen at Mississauga. I have been invited to Cagney’s several times but I could never find the time to fit it in. Similar to this restaurant, I did not realize with the crazy schedule that I keep, I […]
