Win Yeung Chinese Restaurant located at 37 Maple Ave in Haliburton
After our amazing day of training and learning, we went to Win Yeung Chinese Restaurant in Haliburton for dinner. We called ahead of time to let this Chinese restaurant know that up to 20 people were on the way (otherwise, being a small town, they might not be ready for all of us all at once). It took around 15 minutes for us to drive there from our villa at Pinestone Resort. Continue reading

The Pepper Mill Steak & Pasta House located at 15141 Hwy #35 in Minden
After checking in and settling into our villa, we went out for dinner at The Pepper Mill Steak & Pasta House in Minden, Ontario. Since our breakfast brunch that morning was just a relatively small one at Goldsor Restaurant, most of us were starving by the time it was 5 p.m. when we were scheduled to have dinner. Unfortunately, many of our friends were checking things on the computer and we didn’t actually leave to go for dinner until 6:30 p.m. Continue reading
Rock Oasis, Toronto. July 2009
This week’s challenge asks us to share a moment that is victorious. It reminds me of the treetop trekking that we did earlier this week. When you finish all the obstacles and emerge on the other side unscathed, you feel and are victorious! Continue reading

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.

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!
