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!

Le Chat Botté

Jen — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 19:30:16 +0000

For my first meal back on Swiss soil, I opted to have lunch at a Michelin-starred restaurant: Le Chat Botté at the hotel Beau Rivage. Framed by an intensely blue sky of a sunny spring day, the blindingly white and stately hotel faces Lake Geneva and the ever-familliar Jet d'Eau. A fitting start to my trip.

Salted Caramel Truffles From Nota Bene

Jen — Sun, 30 Oct 2011 19:57:38 +0000

I love that Nota Bene has these salted caramel truffles as an after-dinner option. It’s got a liquid caramel centre that explodes on your tongue when you bite into it (pro-tip: pop the whole thing in your mouth and let it melt). Simple, delicious, and perfect for those times when you want something sweet, but not ...more

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

Buddha Dogs on Globe’s Patio

Jen — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 19:40:12 +0000

I love the patio at Globe Bistro (124 Danforth Avenue, Toronto) with their rotating patio-only menu that offers some interesting bites. On one particular evening, I got to try the Buddha Dogs I’d heard a lot about. Long and thin, these dogs are more akin to a pepperette than the standard sausage I had pictured ...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

Woodlot Works

Woodlot offers baked goods throughout the day as well as a full-service dinner. So of course, I made both a bakery and a restaurant visit!

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

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.
