I just realized that I have not reviewed Amelie's - one of my favorite-est bakeries around.

Still drool worthy, always solid and super friendly service...this is Savor Cafe.
In my past review I discussed the deliciousness in the mile high peanut butter pie, farmer's sandwich, strawberry lemonade and mac 'n cheese. Rest assured, these menu…More »

American (Traditional)
Fran, your food is filling. So filling. And sooo delicious. Hubs and I dropped by for a casual dinner and pretty much ordered way too much. Big shocker, I know, but really we couldn't help ourselves. The menu was filled with comfort food goodness.

Food Delivery Services

When I'm hungry, I'm hungry. And when I'm lazy, I'm lazy. That's why I love Foodie Call. They take care of both of these predicaments and solve them with one successful swoop of delicious restaurant delivery!

Seize the day and get your hungry self over to Carpe Diem. While Carpe Diem is a little fancy pants to just roll into with jorts and a Dale Jr. tee, make the effort. It's a lovely restaurant- beautifully appointed and as Julia S points out - stellar…More »
9. Vivace
Definitely still a big fan of Vivace. It definitely is (still) one of the best looking restaurants in town with a sweet patio and *stunning* upstairs lounge area. If you're seeking a private party space you must check out that second floor.

Neighbourhood: University City
Well, it's a good thing I wore a flowy dress and an adjustable slide belt to dinner at Nakato. Not only did my belt "adjust" on its own, but hubs and I took home a combined box of leftovers that fed us for a few meals afterwards, too!
I was craving…More »
