Some of you may be heading out for a raucous pub and green beer today/this weekend, but for those of us who seek quieter climes (yeah, I’m old), try my favourite place to relax with a few drinks, Milk Tiger Lounge.
I blogged about Milk Tiger when it first opened. They make drinks here the [...]
Finding a spot in Toronto to catch up with some girls from work turned out to be a bit harder than we thought. We didn’t want to go to a pub so that ruled out a lot of places downtown. A bistro/bar was way too noisy and crowded. We finally ended up at Swish [...]
You would think that at an outing of three food bloggers, there would be at least one camera ready to record the experience. Well, you would be wrong.
Patent and the Pantry, Binky Silhouette and I decided to go somewhere off the beaten track for cheap wings, landing at my suggestion of Juliet’s Castle Sports [...]
I’m a big fan of chicken wings, so when JJ invited us to Broken City’s wing night, I immediately accepted.

Because they use Grade AAA 100% sirloin, you can get your burger cooked to order. Rare, even!
My medium-rare, [...]
Before I could get to the little crepe place on my mental list of places to try in Kensington, the basement space had closed and was papered up for months.
I didn’t think anything of it until some tidy lettering went up late this summer. “winebar,” it read in a nice sans-serif font. A good [...]
It’s rare that I blog about a negative experience. I try to stick to the “if you can’t say anything nice, then don’t say nothing at all” philosophy. So know that my visit to Opus on 8th was remarkably bad for me to be writing about it here.
I was jonesing for the sweet Polish Bison [...]
