Step #1: Select your dough (classic, oatmeal or peanut butter). Step #2: Select two mix-ins from a selection of too-many-to-count. Step #3: They easy-bake it and it's done in 2.5 minutes.

Let's be honest, the area isn't the most glamorous what with it being near a Coffee Time, an In-and-Out KFC, a Blockbuster Video and an erotic boutique aptly named Naughty By Night. But sandwiched in this would-be red light district is a little slice…More »

This 3-level restaurant cafe complete with a third floor patio is a great place for dessert, coffee and chatting among friends.

At least, I assume coffee - not much of a coffee drinker but it seemed fitting to mention it anyway.

Dessert of choice:…More »

I love many things. But it's a rare find to have true passion for something. If it wasn't evident in my past reviews, I have a passion for good food. My other passion? Mine heart belongs to shoes.

Working in the Queen/John area I've walked passed…More »

This was my first experience at Terroni. There was much hype for it to live up to so I will break it down to atmosphere, service, food and dessert because [spoiler alert] it really is a league of its own.

Atmosphere: Lovely. In the old Courthouse, the…More »

This is a store that is very pretty to look at. A store where they'll sell little kitchen knick-knacks and you think to yourself "Oh, that was clever. Why hasn't anyone made that before?" then you realize the world can and will continue to turn if…More »

This is the review from a tattoo n00b! I shall refrain from such terms as "ink" or "tatts". This is something I've learned.

So, I'm someone who was thinking of getting a tattoo for perhaps two years - one and a half on deciding what to get and six…More »

I never feel like I don't belong when I walk into the Silver Snail. I'm not knocking the other comic book stores in the city which are equally (if not, perhaps more) knowledgeable or stocked up but the Snail seems to have the welcome wagon out when I…More »

Recently updated lists from Michelle V.

Woodbine and Danforth - Yup, it's worth visiting... (8)

It might not be a neighbourhood that's bursting with trendy retail flavour but it still has a lot to offer.

Surprise Finds (7)

More specifically (since the title only allowed a max. length of 64 characters), "Places I Would Never Think I'd Find Myself In Let Alone Giving It a Great Review".

The Great Dessert Seduction (9)

Places to get your sweet on.

[Warning: one place mentioned on this list is located in Thunder Bay, ON]

Cup O'Cake (5)

The idea of this list is to [hopefully] expand it as I discover more list-worthy cupcakes since I don't normally go out and buy them. But I need to provide a brief explanation for Sweet Tooth. It's the Chocolate Raspberry cupcake alone that earned its spot. So moist and delicious and imagine if I went when they were fresh!

Why I Miss Living Closer to the Beach Area (4)

Once upon a time, I lived in an area that straddled Leslieville and the Beach, perhaps leaning more toward the Beach. And though I don't live THAT far from these places, here is a list of places my Sunday bike rides or strolls miss...

Why I Should Be Living in Leslieville (4)

Whether it's food, clothing or more food, these are the places I must hit up when I'm in the area.
