Usually my mother only makes a getaway to Toronto for a duration less than 48 hours and she does this several times a year. But with January 1 falling on a Sunday, it created an opportunity for her to step out for a whole five days! We did not cook anything at home and [...]

I feel so rubbish at figuring out where to go eat despite all my interest and being subscribed to so many food blogs. Apparently it goes in out ear and out the other. But one source of reliable, delicious, and fairly priced fare is Korean food and there is a Korean area (and it’s [...] Since it is quite a bit into November, this post is a little late in coming but photos of food are timeless, aren’t then? This is where we went in September and October 2011! Fish Noodles Soup House (Richmond Hill) Only earlier this year, I discovered the joy of DIY noodle soup at Cattle [...] Hosting NPY in Toronto and going to New York recently are among the many reasons why I have not posted for a while… oh boy, and what a big-time eating trip it was! We went two years ago to New York on my first proper, grown-up trip there and visited the major tourist sights [...] I moved! Sorta. Well.

After our initial visit to the Summer Night Market on June 4, we returned two more times on July 17 and 31. Each time I endeavoured to try different stalls since none of them would [...] You could say we’ve been going beyond our boundaries, but still sticking to primarily Asian food. Estea Beverage Club (Burnaby, BC)
Given lactose intolerance and aversion of cheese seems to be more prevalent amongst Chinese people, I find it interesting there are the creamy, saucy items on their menus. I guess they are [...] There’s a lot of food I will not for one reason or another. I hate cilantro, especially when it appears without warning in a broth and I have to scramble to remove as many traces before the flavour infuses throughout the broth. Sure, cilantro garnish makes the dish look prettier in my pictures, but [...] There’s very few places that are both worth trying and that I haven’t tried in my neighbourhood. I considered Kayan (Mediterranean) and Pondok (Indonesian) but had to listen to reviews and the most glowing were those for Saravanaa Bhavan from which I had previously tried a giant dosa upon suggestion by one [...] |
