Hotmess Tex Mex
This past Tuesday, there was a jojoinstameets media tasting at Hotmess Tex Mex. If it weren’t for jojoinstameets, I would not have known about this neat little Tex Mex restaurant! Hotmess Tex Mex resides on Queen Street West where there are a number of notable eats already; it seems like Queen Street West (Little Italy) is becoming quite the food scene for Continue reading
Nana Restaurant located at 785 Queen St W in Toronto
Last Saturday, after an amazing tasting at Dazzling Café, I headed downtown for a long-awaited dinner with some friends. (We had been trying to schedule this dinner for a long time and due to postponements and delays, we finally were able to meet up!) Nana is a Thai restaurant that I’ve heard about for about two years when I Continue reading
Markham, Ontario. June 2017
Who is suggesting these challenges for the weekly photo challenges!? They’re rather uninspired and repetitive. Last week we already had a similar theme. I would love to see different and varied themes like “run”, “tiny”, “soft” or something very specific and see what everyone comes up with and not these Continue reading
Dazzling Café located at 37 Sheppard Ave E in North York
I feel so grateful and lucky to be able to attend so many media tastings lately. 😀 This recent one that I attended on the weekend was to Dazzling Café, a popular Taiwanese café that has grown to over 200 locations worldwide!

Light Café
On Friday evening, my girls and I met up for dinner at Light Café. I had seen photos from Light Café pop up since last summer on social media and since then had always been intrigued to go to try it out. It’s a Taiwanese-inspired café with savory items like hot sandwiches, mini pizzas, salads, soup, and baked potatoes as well as lots of Continue reading
Holt’s Café located at 50 Bloor Street West in Toronto
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of visiting Holt’s Café for a private tasting with my friend to try out items from their brand new menu. Holt’s Café is located inside Holt Renfrew, the “chain of high-end Canadian department stores specializing in an array of luxury brands and designer boutiques”.
To find the café, when you enter the department store from the front entrance, go up one level on the escalator, Continue reading
Lone Star Texas Grill located at 930 Dixon Rd in Etobicoke
The first and only time I had stepped into a Lone Star Texas Grill was all the way back in university, which is really about ten years ago. I remember that visit as fairly lackluster and since then hadn’t had a strong affinity towards Lone Star Texas Grill and their many Continue reading
