If Guy Fieri came here he would say this:

This place is in the middle of NOWHERE in a town named Woodbridge, Ontario.  The building stands alone and if you don't hear from the locals, you'll never know this place exist.

This is without a doubt one of my favourite lunch take-out spots.  It's a tiny take-out Churasqueria place where once inside you can see a bit of charming decor but what's more is the smell of the bbq flying out the door when you enter.  OMG, the…More »

I personally enjoyed eating BBQ here, but what-the-hick would I know?
I don't smoke.  I'm not a hick.  I'm not a smokin bbqin' hick.

Take-out means the interior of my car gets to indulge in the aroma's of Hickory and Meat.  Feel the rub texture of the…More »

Going into this place, it has an Ol' Southern Comfort/Sports Bar environment to it.  Southern Comfort comes from a select few posters of classical Jazz musicians hanging on the wall and I even saw a small Trombone too.  

The musical consisted of a mix…More »

It gets pretty QUIET in this Vaughan Mills Plaza for Sunday lunch and due to that fact, half of the restaurants in this strip do not open on Sunday.  I guess it's Nowshak's lucky day because I chose them for lunch and we were the only table in this…More »

Nothing satisfies a craving like that 2 AM 16oz NY Steak.  Some of you might say Poutine or Chinese but for me the choice is clear.  Not the 8oz, not the 12oz but the 16oz is the ONLY choice.

Apparently a bunch of guys came in shortly after I dug in…More »

BB BBQ has always been a destination for me to try.
It never came to fruition as their sister branch is closer for me.
Memphis BBQ in Woodbridge was satisfying enough as is.
Much much more convenient than driving to Newmarket or Barrie.

Interesting, it seems I can't turn the corner in Maple without having a Churrasqueira in my way.  The Churrasco population is definitely on the rise and it seems even some Downtown businesses want part of the Pie(or rather Quarter Chicken).  That's…More »

I had to check out west-ends version of T-Bones.  Master Steaks definitely has glimpses of the east-end equivalent.  Simple seasoned, preparation of various cuts of Steaks grilled to your choice of doneness with selection of sides.   3.5 *Star*

Baghali Kubideh($5.95) which I originally thought of it as Hummus, maybe that is how non-Persians would compare to as it has the same consistency and color. This item uses Fava Bean rather than Chickpeas.

Kal Kabob($7.50) has typical flavours of…More »

Blue Sage deserves 3.5 *Stars* and the half star goes to the owner/chef as he engages the customer with his passion & dedication as well as his willingness to share.  Walked in and automatically followed my nose to the SMOKEY flavour.
