A Corner Cafe located at 4981 Hwy 7, Unit 11 in Unionville
April 19, 2019: There is a new brunch spot in Markham! A Corner Cafe is located at Highway 7 east of McCowan Road directly across from Markville Mall. It’s also close to a Krispy’s Kajun Chicken and replaces a former Green Grotto location.
A Corner Cafe is currently in its soft opening. My friend Betty and I went to check it out on the second day Continue reading
CBQ Health & Wellness Clinic located at 21 Fairburn Dr, Unit #19 in Markham
April 12, 2019: I found another amazing massage parlour!! This one, called CBQ Health & Wellness Clinic (名仁养生馆), is super close to me too! (It’s located in the cluster of store units at Rodick Road and Highway 7; right behind First Markham Place.)
After an arduous nine days and nights of doing 31 hours of transcription work, my body was letting me know that it was sore in my lower back, forearms, and buttocks area, and I severely needed Continue reading
Presentation of my new CSR designation
April 6, 2019: This year’s Chartered Shorthand Reporters’ Association of Ontario Conference was held once again at the Oakham House at Ryerson University.
Unlike previous years, this was a much more quiet and subdued conference. I’m not sure exactly of the reason for this although I can personally think of a few reasons including Continue reading
Le Papillon On Front located at 69 Front St E in Toronto
March 30, 2019: After experiencing some optical illusions, we were famished and arrived for our brunch reservation at Le Papillon on Front, a French restaurant.
Le Papillon is a French restaurant serving Toronto since 1974 (wow, such a long history!) and located right on Front Street, a prevalent area for tourists visiting the nearby attractions like Ripley’s Aquarium, CN Tower, SkyDome*, and Continue reading
Museum of Illusions located at 132 Front St E in Toronto
March 30, 2019: The Museum of Illusions is a fun interactive museum for all ages that features trick-eye exhibits and optical illusions. It’s located on Front Street in downtown Toronto and newly opened since late 2018. A lot of the exhibits and displays shown in this museum reminded me of the concepts I learned back in my perspectives psychology course in Continue reading
Robo Sushi located at 865 York Mills Rd, Unit #9 in North York
March 29, 2019: This is definitely an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant worth checking out! Robo Sushi is a restaurant with robots serving you! It’s an idea straight out of Japan or China where automation for everything is all the rage these days. It’s more of a gimmick, but the all sushi and Japanese items that we had during this meal were quite delicious that if you were planning to go to an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant anyway, you might as Continue reading
Cactus Club Café located at 77 Adelaide St W in Toronto
March 28, 2019: Two friends and I arranged to have dinner here at Cactus Club Café. This location of Cactus Club Café is located in the heart of the Financial District in Toronto on the upper level of First Canadian Place (or ground floor of Adelaide Street) as you’ll see their gigantic storefront when you are walking down Adelaide. (Cactus Club Café has locations all across Canada in Continue reading
Hamaru Sushi located at 1865 Leslie St in North York
March 24, 2019: After our Paint Nite event next door, we headed over to Hamaru Sushi at 4 p.m. for a really early dinner. The online ratings for this small Japanese restaurant at a strip plaza next to a CIBC were very high and thus worth checking out to fix a Continue reading
The Goose: A Firkin Pub located at 1875 Leslie Street in Toronto
March 24, 2019: It’s been a while since my last Paint Nite. I’ve done this Paint Nite event once before and another time with Paint Lounge and enjoyed them both immensely (the idea is exactly the same at either paint events where a feature painting is chosen and an instructor guides everyone to paint their own interpretation of the feature Continue reading
Tenon Vegetarian Cuisine located at 8362 Kennedy Rd in Markham
March 23, 2019: Vegetarian sushi and sashimi found here! Tenon Vegetarian Cuisine (天恩中日素食料理) used to be a regular Japanese restaurant many, many years ago. I remember dining here with my mom at least ten years ago and remembering the visit to be quite mediocre. Since then, they have either been taken over by new management or switched to being a meat-free restaurant.
When we arrived at 12 p.m. on a Continue reading
