  Update - 4/3/2010 ROTD 7/6/2010

Ok, this is the THIRD time I've reviewed this place.  WHY? Because I am officially calling this best pub to grab a beer in Toronto.  For the last two years I've been destroying my liver to find the best multi-purpose bar and I have definitely found…More »

Financial District/St.Lawrence Hangouts (10)

Here's a list of solid places that are tried, tested and true.  by me!
I enjoy these places so much that I will go there over and over and over and over again.

I'd destroy my liver for you: Best BEER in Toronto (6)

I'm making my favourite bar list- probably not different than most lists- but this is my favourite places to grab a pint any hour of any day because apparently I hate my liver or at least need to desperately test the limits of its ability to regenerate.

February Food-Free Yelping Challenge (8)

Foodless February: Yelping NON-food places- the most difficult yelp challenge yet!
Feeling like yelp should have so much more to offer than foodie reviews?  C'mon, we're more than just Chowhound with yelpstick- let's do some NON-food places for Feb 2012!

"I'm sitting here RIGHT NOW"- Fave work-Cafes w/ FREE WIFI (9)

are you FUNemployed and work on your laptop a LOT?
Here are some of my regular cafes that I work at that have quality espresso and a comfortable vibe for me to work.

Travelling Solo #1: Seattle (38)

I'm a big fan of travelling solo.  Here's my itinerary in case any other ladies are looking to do similar type of touristing, bar hopping, cafe people watching and dance-cations.  All rated on the degree of solo friendliness.
(fyi- i went down w/ a group of girls and stayed after for a few days by myself)

You are severely overrated. Yes, YOU. OVERRATED! (11)

This is a list of places that are ridiculously overrated and I try my darndest to avoid.
Some may get angry at some places I chose, but I promise you, they really aren't that good and you MAY need to get your taste buds checked.

Donnelly Group FAIL (7)

Why does the Donnelly Group own everything in this town?  And why do they suck SO much.  Please stop doing so badly- you made a good pub once.  It was called Biminis.  It burnt down.  Along with your talent at replicating that experience with your CHAIN OF FAILURE.
= )

Croissants: Lard always makes things better (9)

I always thought I kind of hated croissants.  Turns out it was because I was eating BAD croissants.  So now I'll only eat a perfect buttery flakey croissant- so if you are picky like me- you want to read this list.

Indian craving? EAT HERE (7)

After a strange NON-pregnancy induced craving for Indian food I tried several AYCE buffets within 2 weeks. In case you ever go through the same gluttony here is your go-to guide!

Double Takes: not all locations are made the same (14)

Have you ever come across a different location of the same resto and thought, "right on! deliciousness HERE TOO!"  
Well think again- not ALL locations are created equally.

When I'm Not Yelping...

I'm adventuring, academicizing or peer pressuring.

Why You Should Read My Reviews

I balance out gluttony with reviewing non-eating places too.
