Two things to note:
1. Yam Fries
2. Pom Surprise
Yes, the yam fries are deeply fried, but they are wedges and you get the sweet potato goodness that you wouldn't get anywhere else.
The pom surprise comes with cucuber, a splash of grenadine, lime juice.…More »
2. Beast
Heads up - there is no 120 happy hour during the winter... I had to learn the hard way by finding out at the restaurant, no biggie.
I thought that this place was getting a lot of hype with an always changing menu so I booked a 530 reservation just in…More »
3. Guu Garden
I knew Guu Garden was opened... but like many people, I didn't know where it was. I thought the construction downstairs at Relish was going to include the upstairs as well since the previous Japanese restaurant there closed. But thanks to Vincci, I…More »

I like coming to Lamplighter to watch the games - the crowds are cool, the place is pretty rustic for a pub that is.. and there are large screens that everyone can watch the games on. The food is pretty good, although I wish that the Donelly…More »

Bennys done - BULGARIAN STYLE (I'm trusting Marc D's Bulgarian comment)!
Their weekend breakfast special consists of poached eggs, with yogurt sauce (not hollandaise), with bacon, the means and yams. I don't like hollandaise, it reminds me of MSG, but…More »

I finally got into this place... still reminiscing about the time I wasn't 21 years old yet and the bouncer didn't let me in on a Saturday night because it was 25+ night.... and I had just started dating my "husband" at the time, who is eligible for…More »

Category:
Lounges

This is not Chill's fault, but how can I "chill" when there is a girl at the table behind me intoxicated out of her mind, speaking to her friend next to her like she is across the room? Good thing that only lasted for about 15 minutes and I was able…More »

9. Pivo Public House
Right at the edge of Crosstown beside the Crosstown liquor store outside the tinseltown plaza, this is a nice little upscale edition as there hasn't been much establishment happening.
... and when I say upscale, I mean upscale compared to McDonalds,…More »

I'm all about service at a restaurant... even if the food is great,,,, no the food at Steamworks is not great.... good at best, so don't get your hopes up with a 5 star meal because I really don't think you're going to get it here. Face it.. it's a…More »

Do you know the story behind the name Section 3 ? I didn't until last night. From what I heard, it use to be named DeNero ... after Robert DeNero... and that lead to legal issues and stuff like that...and it was violating some code in "Section3".. so…More »

King St W and Surroundings (15)welcome to my hood! |
I Love Apple Pie :) (14)It doesn't have to be a special bakery, or a dessert shop... as long as there's apple pie.. I'm willing to try (hehe I rhymed!) |
Brunch'n Eggs, French Toast, Pancakes & MORE! (6) |
Bubble Tea Shops and other Drink Wonders (7)Don't think that if you go to a bubble tea shop that you are obligated to order something with pearls! There are also many flavours of jellies.. or you can opt out and just enjoy fresh fruit, milk teas, or regular tea. It's a world of choices! |
Not Your Average Macaron! (9)It's a MacaRON, not a MacaROON, Parisian style! C'est Bon, non? |
