Pan on the Danforth located at 516 Danforth Avenue in Toronto
The other Greek restaurant that I’ve been on the Danforth for a ‘licious event was several years ago at Ouzeri. I remember the portions to be huge and the food was very authentically Greek. Although a completely different restaurant, dining at Pan on the Danforth this time during Summerlicious 2013 was a similar experience. Continue reading
Portuguese food has never tasted so good at Lisbon by Night. I loved the fish soup that I started off with. This restaurant is really well known for their fish dishes and when I ordered the fish soup, even the server’s smile told me that it was the right appetizer to pick. It was warm and each spoonful was full of soft, shredded fish pieces. The crunchy croutons gave the soup a nice kick. The calamari that my friend ordered was very well done and flavoured.

Why, hello, hello! The season of Toronto’s most beloved food celebrations is here! Say hello (for the third time) to Summerlicious! Hundreds of restaurants across Toronto choose to participate in this delicious 3-week affair of fine dining with prix fixe menus and drool-worthy items. Every year I go a little crazy and attend as many restaurants as I can with friends. How can I ever say no to prix fixe meals at some of the best restaurants in town? 🙂
For my first Summerlicious restaurant this season, myself and three friends ventured to Splendido for dinner. Continue reading
Jade and I
On March 18, 2013, I attended the 7th Annual Asian Film Awards with Jade King in Hong Kong. I met up with Jade at 11 that morning to get to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. I was beyond excited to be attending such a big event with her – it is the equivalent of the Oscars in North America! Continue reading
Never in a million years did i think our house would be sold in a matter of 24 hours or so! Woohoo! And now the packing to move homes begins now. 🙂 The stress i’ve been feeling for the past week has literally rolled away. Hehe. Now i can go out as per my original plans. Heeeeh 😀
Caught a cold over the weekend. Too many events to attend. Not enough sleep and lack of nutrition. Haven’t been working out lately due to said events. Too much stuff going on otherwise. And officially 2 weeks before I leave to China! I hope I get better before I leave. 
And Summerlicious starts this week… also, there are 3-4 assignment/presentation things to work on for the DiSCOVER program. So busy…. Continue reading
First time dragon boating!
This past Saturday in the DiSCOVER 2013 program, instead of sitting in the classroom in our usual Mandarin class and business/Chinese culture workshop, we went out to the lake shore and did a 2-hour crash course on the wonderful water sport of dragon boating. I’ve seen people dragon boat many times and ate those lotus-wrapped rice balls during Dragon Boat Festival but never had the inkling to try it out for myself. We spent the first part of the hour warming up, doing stretches, and jogging on the boardwalk. It was a really cool and gloomy morning.

I’m kind of stressed. I can’t wait until this is all done and over with.
So much to do and everything is falling within the next 3 weeks….
I attended the second annual TO Food Fest yesterday in the blistering heat. The event features well known food trucks and eateries selling their most popular yummies in a food show. It’s sort of like the night markets except during the day. The event began at 1 p.m. and lasted until 6 p.m. Continue reading
