Nick and Niagara Street Café

Jen — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 22:16:27 +0000

Despite having heard about it numerous times, I hadn't made it out to Niagara Street Café until late last November. Boy, was I sorry that there weren't any earlier visits. With time ticking away, I thought I'd post this sooner than later; it's Chef Liu's last week, and here's why you want to check NSC out if you can!

Parts & Labour

Jen — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 20:14:59 +0000

A few months back, I made a visit to Parts & Labour. While the nuances of that night aren’t as sharp as they once were, it was still a remarkably good meal. Good thing I took photos! Though it wasn’t my first choice for an appetizer, once I discovered that bath chapp equalled pig-face bits, I was ...more

Pork Carnitas Tacos At The Black Hoof

Jen — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 20:23:54 +0000

Since January 2011, every time I go to The Black Hoof (928 Dundas Street West), I order the current iteration of their pork tacos. It began as pig’s head tacos (see below) and has evolved to the dish we see today – the pork carnitas. Despite tweaks, the core flavours have remained: lime, cilantro, guacamole, ...more

Photo Friday: Oyster Nigiri From Yuzu

Jen — Sat, 28 May 2011 00:25:52 +0000

I eat at Yuzu a lot. So much so that I have earned my chopsticks there and their mobile site is my handiwork. But a friend and I agreed: fresh fish, great service, and a comfortable space. Certainly, this isn't the cheapest sushi in town, but both of us felt that it was definitely good value.

Enoteca Sociale

Jen — Mon, 28 Feb 2011 15:15:36 +0000

A few weeks ago, Enoteca Sociale introduced their half-priced enomatic wines on Mondays and Tuesdays. As soon as I digested that bit of news (which was about 2 seconds after I read their tweet), I knew I had to visit immediately and run through their enomatic list. This was a no-brainer, having already placed Enoteca ...more

Two-Bite Post: The Gabardine

Jen — Wed, 23 Feb 2011 15:20:43 +0000

The Gabardine is a polished American bistro with elements that make it more casual: epoxy-lacquered wood tables, white walls, patterned white tin ceiling, mis-matched dishware, and a chalkboard. I stopped in recently and enjoyed some lunch in this bright and airy space.

Comforting Campagnolo

Jen — Tue, 15 Feb 2011 15:15:00 +0000

It seems that every couple of weeks another Italian restaurant crops up doing that whole "nonna" cookin' schtick. These restaurants are like a wave washing upon a shore. A shore littered with the remains of those restaurants' Italian brethren where their grandmothers may, or may not have, been in the kitchen. Normally, I'd say that Toronto doesn't need more Italian fare served up. I really would. If only the fare wasn't so damn good.
