Green Lemon Grass - South East Asian Cuisine

Although I'm huge on decor and design, I can deeply appreciate a restaurant that doesn't focus much on decor but on what they serve instead. What am I talking about? I'm talking about local restaurants that have no affiliation to big chain restaurants and simply serve a solid meal. And this is exactly what Green Lemon Grass is

SCHWARTZ'S [Montreal]

AKA. The only reason I go to Montreal. No, I am not kidding. I never kid about good food.

If you don't already know (shame on you, if you don't), Montreal is famously known for its smoked meat and Schwartz's is famously known as THE smoked meat restaurant. What more convincing do you need?

BLACK HOOF

J and I are definitely real carnivores, we both love meat and good meat at that. Needless to say when we heard about Black Hoof, we both knew we HAD to try it. Owner, Grant van Gameron has generated much deserved attention for himself as a master of charcuterie. He expertly knows how to make about 40 different types of charcuterie – from lavender and sake cured capicollo to even horse meat!  

BLACK HOOF

Where: 928 Dundas Street West

Price: $$ (Entrees between $10-$22)

No reservations; cash and debit only

BEWARE to all vegetarians or anyone on a diet – this is not the place for you - unless you are just fine eating cheese and bread :)

Song Cook's

Korean food has taken Toronto by storm. What was relatively unknown a few years ago has become increasingly popular in Toronto today. I love spicy food, so this trend is right up my alley!

Song Cook's (located behind the giant Moore's building.. it's easy to miss so keep your eyes peeled!!)

Finally !

We’ve been meaning to get to a food blog for a while. And well, what better time to start then during work?

J and I love food. We love to make it, bake it, eat it, and will go to huge extents to travel to try new (or return to old) places to eat (too willingly..). 

This is our blog documenting our wonderful journey

Follow us but beware: we are not responsible if you fall into a food--coma :)

Happy eatings,
