Oh New York City. My love affair with the city that never sleeps continues. It seems as though I somehow find myself in New York at least once a year. And no matter how many times I go, I always feel like there is something new to explore, an interesting experience to be had and…

My Favourite Toronto Patios
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. The sun is out, my freckles are appearing again, clothes are lighter and the general mood in the air is just happier. Summer, you are the best. Summer also means getting out and enjoying the weather as much as possible because sadly, we know what is waiting…
Recipe: Baked Eggplant Parmesan
It feels like over the last few years the eggplant has gotten a bad rap. And you know EXACTLY what I’m talking about, thank you very much cellphone emojis. However, I digress, and will continue on about my post about the eggplant, the VEGETABLE. The eggplant can be a very divisive dish. It feels like…
Top 5 Toronto Brunch Spots
I can’t decide whether it’s brunch foods or just brunch that I like more. Lately I’ve been eating breakfast for dinner so it leads me to believe that I love the foods that make up the meal. I definitely don’t get out to brunch as often as I’d like, although my Instagram probably makes it…
Where To Eat Before a Game/Show/Concert
Since I started this blog, one of the most popular questions I get is where to eat before a concert, a Jays/Raptors/Leafs game or a show. Over the last few years, the dining options in the “Entertainment District” of the city have really grown. Most recently, Union Station has upgraded its food scene to accommodate…
Infinity Mirrors: Yayoi Kusama
The most talked about event in Toronto for the last few weeks has been Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Mirrors exhibit at the AGO. As the only Canadian stop on the exhibition tour, you have undoubtedly seen many perplexing and mesmerizing selfies of her various “rooms” flood your social media feeds. When I heard that the exhibit…
A Weekend in Medellin, Colombia
In my head I know that Winter only lasts a few months, but after the haze and flurry of Christmas it feels like a lifetime before we get to have sunny warm days again. If I can get my act together, I usually try and plan a little getaway between January and March so I…
Cook It Meal Kits
You guys know that I’ve started cooking a lot more at home. It’s an easy way to stay healthy, save money and appreciate the joy of cooking. Living in the city gives you so many options for take-out and dining but sometimes you just want a nice home cooked meal. In the last few years…
Dinner at Do Not Disturb (CLOSED)
When someone tells me that I will want to “order everything on the menu”, I can’t help but get a little excited about what’s in store for dinner. Do Not Disturb is appropriately (and hilariously) located inside The Beverley Hotel at Queen and John. I’ve been to this boutique hotel for drinks on their adorable…
Mushroom Risotto Recipe
Risotto might actually be one of my favourite foods. Mushroom risotto to be specific. There’s just something about the creamy, peppery, earthy flavours that makes it the perfect comfort food. It’s no coincidence that you will find risotto in my regular dinner rotation this season especially with these sub-zero temperatures. I first tried this recipe…
