Even more seafood feasting at Ponte Vecchio

Located at 6380 Fallsview Blvd in Niagara Falls

Another month, another mother-daughter moment.  I love spending quality time dining out with my mom and especially when we order tremendous amounts of food like this.  Five years ago I wouldn’t have appreciated this that much and five years later I know I’ll appreciate these moments and quality time so much more.   Continue reading

Playing “Liberty Squad” at BreakOut Team Adventures (Complimentary)

Located at 705 Progress Avenue #44 in Scarborough

By now, if you’ve been following my blog, you know that not only am I a food enthusiast and love trying new restaurants, but over the past year, I’ve also been delving into escape room games.  It all started last year in February 2014 when I played my first escape game.  Ever since then, I’ve kept my eyes peeled for more thrilling escape games that I could try out with friends and non-friends.

So, you can imagine my surprise and sheer pleasure when I received this e-mail from Crystal, the Marketing Executive, at BreakOut Team Adventures, one of the newer escape game places in Toronto, about an invite for me to try out their escape game for free so that I could review it.   Continue reading

Weekly Photo Challenge: Serenity

McRae Point Provincial Park, Ontario. July 2012

To me, serenity is being alone and enjoying the own thoughts of my mind.  There can be light sounds around me like music (radio) or the natural sounds that you hear in nature.  I’m an introvert at heart and I feel the most peace and quiet when there is no one else around me.   Continue reading

I’ve been to this Korean restaurant before.  It’s one that most people have heard of and know and love.  A big group of us came to Nak Won Korean Restaurant after our super spectacular meetings for a late dinner.
