There’s no way to deny it now. We’ve officially had our first snow storm of the year, which means that the holidays are right around the corner. Side note – not a good time to be stranded at my parent’s house and forbidden to leave. So aside from all the comfort food that is naturally…

The Brunch Buzz – La Cubana
Brunch really is one of my favourite meals. I’m one of those people that can’t eat first thing in the morning and I always hear the preaching of everyone around me “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” Whatever. With brunch, I get the best of both worlds. I get to sleep in,…
Origin – CLOSED
UPDATE – if you have asked me about a recommendation for a place to go for dinner in the last few months, no doubt I have probably mentioned Origin. I will keep this short and sweet but it is by far one of my favourite restaurants in the city. Wanted to update this post with…
Buca
Buca has been on my list of places to go since it opened back in 2009. Finally I had the opportunity to visit Rob Gentile’s now infamous and still wildly popular restaurant in the heart of King West. Between raving co-workers and friends and a few mixed reviews, I was excited to finally get the…

One of the most interesting parts about trying new places or going outside of your comfort zone is the feeling of not knowing what to expect. I love walking into a new restaurant or bar and just taking in the sights and sounds while deciding if I’ll end up coming back one day. Trying to…
Winterlicious 2013

They don’t get the same level of service, food quality is not as great, limited selection and lack of availability. I get it. I’ve probably said all those things myself at one point or another but the honest truth is that its…
New Year, New Adventures
This post is clearly 3 weeks late! I actually said to myself that I want to make sure I give my blog more attention in 2013 and low and behold I let 3 WEEKS go by without one peep. Not the best way to start a new year and try to accomplish a resolution. So…
