Mili in the City

Pomegranate

Everyone in life needs a friend like my bestie MS. She’s the friend that blurs the lines between friendship and family, the one who you know your kids will play with (or in this case learn Hindi from) and she’s also the girl that broadens your horizons, breaks your borders and makes you try things…

Duff’s Wings

I’m on the hunt for a few things this summer (food wise – lol) – the best sangria, the best pizza, nicest patio and of course, my personal favorite, the best wings in town! During the good ol’ days of Laurier, wings were always a standard part of my weekly dining – Morty’s wings anyone?…

Kultura – CLOSED

I used to be a big fan of Summerlicious. Whenever that first announcement of participating restaurants would be released I’d make my short list and get right on making my reservations. This year, not so much. Although I was looking forward to it, I’m starting to feel that the charm and worth of the whole…

Negroni – CLOSED

Because I’m not tempted enough when it comes to food on a regular basis, I also subscribe to newsletters which fuel the fire every. single. day. About a month ago as I was perusing my daily edition of the Sweetspot newsletter, they profiled Negroni on College Street, otherwise dubbed by them as Panini heaven. I…

Kalendar

Walking around college and trying to pick a restaurant is like being a kid in a candy shop. OR to relate more to myself – being a girl in her 20s in a boutique with SO MANY clothes to choose from! On this beautiful Thursday I found myself walking around College street and decided to…

The Brunch Buzz – Brassaii

Brassaii is clearly becoming “my spot” for the summer – been there on a few random nights out, had my birthday debacle there and now ventured to the multi-faceted venue yet again for their much talked about brunch. My darling friend B (bless her heart) loves her brunch. She lives for that interesting meal in…

New York 2010

Fresh off a fantastic trip to the Big Apple I am recovering in more than ways than one from the food, the walking, the shopping and of course the nightlife. NYC could be a strong contender for the city that never sleeps seeing that our routine 4am nights were becoming the norm. I contemplated for…

Sassafraz

Hair done, make up done – on to dinner and drinks! Sassafraz in the heart of Yorkville has been around for what seems like decades and has become a true staple in the repertoire of fine dining in Toronto. Also a place I have never ventured to although heard of and driven by – you…

Vivoli

Here’s a perfect example of a restaurant that’s been around forever, one that I’ve driven by about 100 times but NEVER eaten at. For my first culinary adventure I ventured out to Vivoli on College Street with 4 of my besties for some good ol’ Italian eats. Vivoli boasts being a trendy-chic combination of a…

Welcome to my Blog!

I’ve lived in two major cities in Canada during my 27 years of life, and when I was moving from one to the other I was saddened by how little I had discovered and experienced in my own home town. I plan trip after trip and take countless vacations to uncover the hidden secrets of…
