Authentic Afghani Food in the City: Naan and Kabob Review
I had the pleasure of attending a media-tasting event at Naan and Kabob, held at their newest Leaside location. I wasn’t sure what to expect. From the pictures I had seen online the food looked similar to Iranian food I had tried but there were also some flavours on the menu that seemed to more…

1st of its kind in Canada! Authentic Chirashi at Shari Restaurant
What’s Chirashi? It’s okay I hadn’t heard of it either before being invited to Shari Restaurant‘s Media Event. It’s a Japanese dish that means “scattered”.

Introducing Il Fornello’s New Vegan Menu!
Il Fornello has been a longtime Toronto favourite for wood-fired pizza and fresh made pasta. I attended a media-tasting yesterday to sample their all new vegan menu. Luckily, I took tons of pictures because words alone wouldn’t do it justice. It was an absolute delight! Il Fornello brought in a vegetarian chef, Margie Cook, to…
Savoury Macarons, the Next Big Thing?
I was skeptical at first too. I love macarons, especially high-quality imported French macarons. Just last month, I did a head-to-head comparison of two of Toronto’s biggest names Ladurée VS Nadège.
