I’ve heard a lot of great things about this Chinese restaurant, one of which is that this place is so good that it’s worth its high price point.  I heard from a friend a long time along that his cousin got married here and the food was amazing and it was well worth the bills to eat here.  Continue reading

I’ve been to CaffĂ© DemetrĂ© for dessert at this location in the past.  It’s a really nice and modern restaurant that specializes in only desserts and drinks.  Talk about a sugar rush!  They have a huge menu full of waffles, ice cream, cakes, crepes, coffees and teas!  It’s a great place to go to hang out with friends for a late night chat over some sweet treats which is what Jen and I did on this Saturday night.  Continue reading

After a full evening of walking around the Anime North convention and taking pictures of many amazing cosplays, we opted for dinner at Sushi Dragon that was just a 3-minute walk from the Toronto Convention Centre. Â Since the anime/manga convention was right next door to this restaurant and many others, there were a lot of hungry cosplay fans and convention goers at this time. Â Continue reading
The Final Fantasy cosplay group photoshoot at Anime North 2014
I’ve never been a huge anime/manga fanatic. Â In my childhood, I grew up with Sailor Moon as my first exposure to “anime”. Â However, I didn’t see it like an obsession or an interest where I would be dressing up as one of the characters. Â It was simply a fun TV show that I watched. Â Continue reading

Seven Lives – Tacos y Mariscos is a taco joint in Kensington Market that is extremely popular.  It specializes in “So-Cal/Baja style seafood”.  I thought it was a sit-down restaurant, but to my surprise, when I got there, there are only 2 main tables and a standing table connected to the wall for guests.  Continue reading

After a little snack at The Island Cafe and some more chillaxing at the beach at Ward’s Island, Ipana had a fantastic suggestion of going to Sukhothai for dinner. Apparently it is comparable to the popular Khao San Road Thai restaurant that is on Adelaide Street. As a foodie, I just had to try it out and was very happy to know that it was open on a holiday Monday (Victoria Day).  Continue reading

Here’s a small highlight of a restaurant that we visited when we spent our Victoria Day weekend at Centre Island (or Ward’s Island specifically). Â I know, I know… Victoria Day has long passed since it was in the last Monday of May, but I’m still catching up on my backlog of blog posts. :]
Five of us enjoyed the lazy Monday holiday by chatting and relaxing on the beach with some wine and good company.  When we got a little hungry, we visited The Island Cafe for some munchies.  Continue reading
Hong Kong Science Museum, Hong Kong. Â December 2011
There’s a bit of a time crunch to do this week’s photo challenge, but I instantly thought of this picture for this week’s theme:
It was taken at the Hong Kong Science Museum and shows how we can be tricked into seeing optical illusions. Â Continue reading
PC Black Label Cooking Class at Loblaws St. Clair West
Last Tuesday, I went to my very first cooking class!! Â As much as I love food and dining out, I don’t cook enough and when I do, I actually really think that my creations are fairly yummy (biased much, I know!). Â Haha. Â I remember when I made food for these monthly potluck parties that my friends and I used to have and I would choose a recipe from the Internet and have a blast making it.
When the opportunity to join a President’s Choice Hands-On Black Label cooking class at the Loblaws Cooking School came up, I grabbed it by the reins and registered.  Continue reading
