Supersize Sushi Burrito @ Rolltation
Welcome to Toronto, Rolltation! Going down the street for a sushi roll during my lunch break is a favorite pastime of mine. I would run down the stairs and around the corner to be braced with many food options while aiming to spend $3 max a day – there would be dim sum,…
On Fridays, go for Maman à Table
I’m squeezing every ounce that the summer warmth has left for me. Last Friday, I made a visit to Maman for their $20 lunch prix fixe menu. The prix fixe is a new service offering available year around every Friday between 11:30am to 2pm, called “Maman à Table”. For the Summer and Spring, the…
It’s a Create-Your-Own-Adventure Book with 3 Brewers’ Custom Casks
With an Amber in hand at 3 Brewers is where you’re bound to find me on a Friday night. With their ever-rotating feature beers, consistent house-made traditional craft beers and crisp maxi fries, there’s no other place I would rather be. Their beers are approachable and surprises are always to come with the featured…
Late Nights Spent with Nana Toronto
When you ask around for the best Thai in Toronto, Khao San Road would echo in every conversation. But I was skeptical. My high school years was made up of visits to our local dive Thai & Laos place Phounguen for the four must: larb, lao green papaya salad, lao fried rice and beef…
Learn, Sip & Taste: FRESH Wines @ iYellow Wine Cave
If your visit to the iYellow Wine Cave is your first, you’ll need to brace yourself for a mini-detour. An alley way cutting through Simcoe downhill is the speediest way, take a picture of the lovebot mural which I am 80% sure is a pokestop, and look out for the familiar signage. Last…
Fat Pasha, Mediterranean Comfort at the Hands of Anthony Rose
It was two years ago when I first tasted the foods from the kitchen of Anthony Rose. The flavours from Rose & Sons still stick with me… along with descriptions of eggs being “soft and sexy”. Deep flavours and hearty dishes, it’s been two years since the last bite. We were on our…
#TASTEMRKT🌸 Experience at STC
This past weekend I visited Scarborough Town Centre (STC) to explore the lower level of their newly revamped TASTE MRKT. With two phases in the mix, the Centre is undergoing a $37-million renovation to create the ultimate destination to shop and eat for foodies and fashionistas across the Greater Toronto Area. I invited my friend Nazia…
Let’s #EatTrueTrue on King East
Over the past two years, I’ve seen the evolution of True True’s brand. What stands at 169 King St. E is the same delicious quick, casual eatery now with a tastefully touched interior of marble, pastel pink with chrome reflection. This pizza spot is a space that you have to check out. The illuminated interior gives off…
When in Montreal: Au Pied De Cochon
My desire to visit Montreal all began with the curiosity of duck-in-a-can. It was an indescribable thrill as we made Au Pied De Cochon our very first meal. But little as I knew of any French, the words directly translated to “To the Foot of the Pig”. With that, all expectations of gluttonous and rich…
