Japanese eats in Toronto
I just ordered a plate of aburi sushi and a salmon hand roll from our local sushi joint, inspiring me to write up this post on my favourite Japanese restaurants in Toronto. As you know, Japanese cuisine is one of my absolute favourites. A couple years ago, I had the chance to eat up a…

Goodfood recap: Coconut curry to Dan Dan noodles
The Goodfood selection for the past couple weeks was a mishmash of cuisines. We ate more noodles, but also had the chance to turn on the grill for a few meals. In addition, we have been able to enjoy some dinners on the balcony with these warm summer evenings and I am loving it! By…

The sweetest treats in Toronto
The province of Ontario has just announced stage 2 of reopening and it looks like dine-in service at restaurants will soon be allowed to resume, although on outdoor patios only. Unfortunately for Torontonians, we are stuck in a holding pattern at stage 1 so eating out and getting my mop of hair cut will have…
