Light Cafe, Baldwin Village

Baldwin Village is one of the top locations I would recommend a visit to in Toronto. Wandering in from Dundas Square to Baldwin and McCaul, it’s a whole new light (☺). The diversity along this strip is unreal. From Japanese, Mexican to the best Asian fused Gelato in the city, you could plan out worldwide meals in one visit.

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…
