Rustic Tuscan Sausage Stew from Fresh City Farms
The second Recipe Bag that I tried from Fresh City Farms with compliments was a meat dish called Rustic Tuscan Sausage Stew with White Beans & Spinach. As I mentioned in my first feature of Fresh City Farms, they are a delivery service of fresh, organic, and locally sourced produce and ingredients with recipes that you can make at home. Their farm is actually located in Toronto at Downsview Park (a six acre farm and a 3000 square foot year-round greenhouse space). I had a pleasure of trying this Recipe Bag and cooking this hearty stew at home! Continue reading

This is apparently the very first seafood boil in Toronto! It is called The Captain’s Boil and just opened this past Friday on November 6, 2015 in North York, Toronto! (Usually, I publish posts sequentially, but due to this newest hot spot in Toronto, this blog post is jumping ahead of my back-log!).
Thanks to my friend Patricia who helped us make reservations for this seafood boil restaurant and for Ai for noticing it, we were able to score a 8-person table at Toronto’s newest seafood restaurant. Continue reading

Byblos located at 11 Duncan Street in Toronto
I finally, finally got to try Byblos! Last weekend, I was supposed to come here with Ai and Jing for our catch-up dinner, but because Byblos is very popular and their reservation gets booked up very quickly, we weren’t able to get a table in time — we went to Boralia instead, which I highly, highly recommend! Continue reading
Kaohsiung, Taiwan. March 2013
I think this is such a great example of what “ornate” means. This week’s theme is really great and makes us think again about the objects around us that we may overlook — let’s have more of these themes instead of these ones. 🙂 Continue reading
New City Restaurant located at 8362 Kennedy Road in Markham
Let’s do this more often! Weekday brunch with friends and family. Why is it that we are born to go to school and then work for 40-50 years of our lives and only live for the weekend? Some thoughts for you to consider. Five of us met up just before our day 2 of the Motives training on a Monday afternoon and had brunch at New City Restaurant in Markham. Continue reading
Lucullus Bakery located at 7750 Kennedy Road in Markham
We had less than an hour’s time for lunch when we were learning about make-up from world-reknown make-up consulant and beauty advisor Tiffiny Luong two weekends ago, so we popped into Lucullus Bakery for some lunch! Don’t be mistaken, even though this is primarily a bakery, Lucullus actually has some really decent and super affordable lunches for dine-in or on-the-go! Continue reading
