Hotpot on Yonge – Permanently closed

April 19, 2016

0

One of my guilty pleasures is eating hotpot style. The thing about hotpot is that it is best when it is shared with a friend. Most of them are setup AYCE and so you better come hungry. There is one that is close to me, HotPot on Yonge and I enjoyed a meal there one […]

Blaze Pizza

About two weeks ago, I was invited to the opening of Blaze Pizza at Yonge and Dundas just by Ryerson University. Getting there was like a walk down the memory lane. I was glad I gave myself a few minutes to do a short walk by parking a few streets north. I was able to […]

Bake Code at North York

Last Tuesday, I was given a special treat of being one of the foodies to get a preview of a new bakery at North York. A Taiwanese import, Bake Code, officially opened north of Yonge and Sheppard this Thursday. Best known for their high quality breads, they introduce a new Asian-European flair, putting together what […]

As I was on my way home today, the rain was beating down my car. Stuck in traffic, I started drifting back to old memories from childhood of walking in the rain. When the rain falls hard back in Manila enough to cancel school, my friends and I would be strolling amidst the rain, celebrating […]

Restaurants around my periphery at Yonge and Finch are mostly Iranian and Asian (predominantly Korean and Japanese). While I do have my favourites that I keep on going back to, I do wish that the area would be more diverse than what it is now. When I read of Schnitzeland, I could not resist checking […]

The Sunday after my opening reception for Catalonia Castellers, I woke up late and yet I still felt exhausted. I guess I was holding my breath for such a long time. It didn’t help that I chose really high heels for the afternoon and after about 5 hours talking to people during the reception, my […]

Salad King

All this time I have been puzzled by Salad King.  For all the time that I have spent at Ryerson University, I have never come across it.  It boggles the mind when I used to be almost always in search of another place that would not give me a sandwich or a wrap during my […]
