You may have heard me say this before but to me pizza is just the most complete of all foods. I’ve thought this way every since grade school when my parents would ‘suggest’ that I eat more balanced including something out of each food group. I would very ‘intelligently’ respond and demonstrate how pizza WAS all…

Distillery Christmas Market
How is it already December? I don’t know about you guys but the last few months have been a blur and I still can’t believe there are only 2.5 weeks left in the year! Usually by this time I’ve put up my Christmas tree, bought and signed my cards and even baked up some treats….
Summerlicious 2014 – Auberge Du Pommier
I know people have their opinions about Summerlicious, and believe me I have my own. I’ve had some really great experiences and others that make me think “why did this restaurant even bother to participate?”. The concept is enticing because it allows you to try a restaurant you may not have otherwise based off a…
The Brunch Buzz – Luckee
I clearly have two challenges when it comes to this blog – 1) sheer laziness of not writing more often and 2) going to a new restaurant and getting so caught up with the food and the company that I forget to take pictures. I guess the 2nd isn’t the worst thing in the world…
El Caballito
Ever have one of those moments when you’re walking into a place and you just KNOW you’re in for an experience? That was the feeling we got when we opened the bright pink door to El Caballito on a rainy Friday evening. It was a little hard to find at first but once we did, there…
Hapa Izakaya
What better way to be greeted upon entering a restaurant then to have the entire staff chant “Welcome” at you in Japanese. This is what patrons can expect upon entering any ‘Izakaya” style establishment. Traditionally, izakaya is a Japanese style pub which focuses primarily on drinking first and food second in an informal environment. Amongst…
Lisa Marie
Ever since moving to the city, it feels so much easier to be spontaneous and just see where the day/night takes you. Sometimes its a relaxing day doing life things at home and other days its day time galavanting and night time resto/bar hopping. I guess that’s how this evening shaped up when I realized…
Shangri-La High Tea
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…
