Hello again Readers. You know something? We really are spoiled for choice with regards to great restaurants in this area. What are we — ten reviews in now, and I’ve yet to have a bad meal. That’s remarkable. The best part is that I have so many places left to […]
Hello readers, let’s talk about breakfast. I’ll confess I have a complicated relationship with this meal … not because I don’t love it. Au contraire. It’s just because my love is not reciprocated. Far from it. Bread, pancakes, muffins, croissants, pastries, doughnuts … and … sniff … crepes all despise […]
Happy Spring, readers! … or BBQ season, as it is known in my house. Despite that last blast of winter we had, I knew Spring had arrived when the unmistakeable waft of BBQ smoke blew by me the other day. Light and ethereal. Why is it the mere hint of […]

Hello fellow food lovers, I’d like to begin my next restaurant review with an ode to a classic, a North American favourite — nay, a staple — an icon of deliciousness. The hamburger. I love me a good hamburger, but there’s one thing I’ve never understood. How can hamburgers be […]
Hello friends. I hope this finds you well. I’m here again with another restaurant review. I feel like you’re starting to get to know me a bit. I’m sure by now you’ve guessed that I love food, but you can’t possibly know how much. I mean, I love all kinds […]
