Wednesday was peculiar that I felt so hungry faster than norm. I usually eat the same things while I work and I could not understand why the sudden need for more food. Usually I pack an afternoon snack in the form of a sandwich for my drive home. But being hungry that day, I ate […]

Pour House Irish Pub

All day Wednesday I watched the snow bury my car by the parking lot.  By the time I finally went out to go home, I had about 20cm  of snow on roof of my frozen Civic.  It was rather funny that my  -20 C guaranteed winter ankle boots were useless as the snow were up […]

Growing up, I always been around older cousins who loved cooking.  Meals cooked from scratch was a regular comfort.  With the good meals came lessons on what to cook, how to cook it and learning what makes it special.  A lot of my cherished childhood memories revolved around family and food.  I had a lot […]

This winter has been gruelling and it’s not even half-way over yet. For when the ice storm happened, I waited it out and watched it in the comforts of my balcony. But it seems that there is no reprieve to this insanely cold weather. I don’t think I’d spend the whole winter just watching from […]

After being prudent for the last few days about being out and about after that dreadful ice storm, I finally succumbed to cabin fever.  I just had to get out.  I found myself at Kensington market that afternoon.  After going through my usual rounds of favourite stores at  Kensington,  the idea of having a good […]

Scouting the location of my future exhibition space for CONTACT 2014, I found myself at Queen St. West on afternoon. I am still yet to firm up dates and agreements about the show but I would be sure to feature it here when I get things ironed out. As I was already there, I swung […]

Le Papillon on Front

Last Wednesday was definitely an indulgence. That night I experienced dining at Le Papillon on Front. I was invited to try out a sampler menu. I must say out of all the invites that I have received, La Papillon on Front was one of the most organized and most considerate of the little details of […]

Toronto Christmas Market at the Distillery

Back in Manila we really go crazy for this season.  From the early signs of Christmas decorations (and I mean early!), to the Christmas carols that waft through the air as dusk sets in, there is no missing that Christmas will be an eventuality.  When I came to Canada, one of the things that I […]

Last Sunday I was invited to experience a December morning at San Remo Bakery. I have always loved this bakery and constantly come back for their bread (the sundried baguette is so amazing!). To be invited for a Christmas goodies preview was too hard to resist. Around 11am, my EyeCandyTO partner, Abe and I walked […]
