Fishman Lobster Clubhouse Restaurant located at 4020 Finch Ave E in Scarborough
To celebrate Father’s Day this year, I decided to surprise Ken with a lobster feast from Fishman Lobster Clubhouse Restaurant (魚樂軒), the best place to eat “lobster mountains” in Toronto! I previously blogged about my visits to this seafood restaurant and how their freshly prepared lobsters are one of the best in the city and how you always get an jaw-dropping picture of the stack of lobster at such a feast.

Cha Kee Restaurant located at 280 West Beaver Creek Road, Unit #30 in Richmond Hill
We actually dined at this restaurant sometime after they opened earlier last year before the pandemic hit, but that blog post is part of the backlog that I still have to post, so this one serves as the first one about it.

iHalo Krunch located at 1 Bass Pro Mills Dr in Vaughan
February 17, 2020: This was the last time we set foot inside of a shopping mall before the lockdown hit. And remember that summer a year or two ago when it was all about the ice cream from iHalo Krunch? I gave up on attempting to line up for it that summer at their flagship Queen Street store but finally had a taste of this popular ice cream at their Vaughan outpost at the Vaughan Mills shopping mall Continue reading

I’m so glad that I took the time the night before to install the web application and test it out with my husband. (I should have done this for GoToMeeting too but who would have known that that application would be finicky with my laptop audio?)
Installing Microsoft Teams took Continue reading

Osmow’s Mediterranean located at 8630 Woodbine Ave Unit 5 in Markham
June 9, 2020: You know it’s going to be an affirmative answer when your other half asks you, “Do you want to get shawarmas for lunch?” 😀 We both haven’t had shawarmas in a while and the idea of a meaty saucy handheld wrap for lunch was definitely something I wanted to eat that Continue reading
