so last week we were looking for a brunch place in the Bay area and were told it’s not that common which I thought was weird – In Toronto it’s all about brunch! One friend with us was from NY and she said that contrary to what Sex and The City like to portray, NYC … Read More
Looking for a bit of ‘joie de vivre‘ for brunch? take a trip out to Queen West just past Shaw St, for a visit to La Bréhandaise crêperie to indulge in traditional french galettes (buckwheat crepes), french wines, or if you prefer to stay local, quebec apple cider and cheeses. From the first step in, you’ll … Read More
I haven’t written about a restaurant for a while, but last night I ventured out to Leslieville (my favourite neighbourhood for the past 4 years), and visited Hanoi 3 Seasons again, and had to spread the good word. If you’ve been following my choice restaurants, then by now, you’ll know that I opt for the … Read More
This is an awesome restaurant! it’s a small tiny place on Queen St West near Shaw, across from the Candy Lofts. Here’s an exact map of it. I personally think that Toronto needs more of these intimate, cozy, and hidden away gems. In contrast to the over-designed, soon-to-be tacky looking places popping up all over … Read More
We went to go see Aladin a few days ago – a pretty good show, even though we received the tickets for free… I’m not sure if I would’ve paid the $49 that they normally ask. Actually, I’m positive, I would not… but I would pay $20-$25 for one. It’s worth it just to see … Read More

I went to an incredible concert put on by Jazz by Genre yesterday…. get ready for it… Guru! basically the godfather of hiphop-jazz! it was the the JAM! he’s gotta be one of my all time favourites! and he had a wicked band with him – superproducer Solar, David Scott (guitar) and DJ Doo Wop, … Read More
i’m currently using the wi-fi access on board a VIA train ride from montreal to toronto. While I don’t have a connection good enough to stream videos as Stuart MacDonald did during his train ride , it’s pretty…
Despite my earlier reluctance about MSN’s Web2.0 offerings, I decided to try out their new Live Local after reading so many good things about it (particularly on Farhan Thawar’s blog).
My goal was to place all of my Restaurants into a list that can be displayed on a map. I was actually pleasantly surprised
I just took a flight on Porter Airways from Toronto City Airport to Ottawa – it was amazing! The service was great – it was easy – none of the crowds that you get at Pearson. The cost was great. The terminal at City Airport has been re done so that it compares to being … Read More
