Buddha Pie
Categories: Pizza, Coffee & Tea, Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: High Park
It is a super thin crust pizza (and I think gluten free) with a big crunch factor and I really dig that. The thing that sets Buddha Pie's pizzas apart I believe is the tomato sauce. I ain't tasted sauce like it here at any other pizzeria in the city, not even Libretto, and that is saying something. They use a brand of tomatoes called Valaroso and this is where their magic starts. The only place I've tasted tomatoes akin to these was in the Tuscan region in Italy. Add another star!
Buddha Pie also sources their cheese from the Cheese Boutique so tally up another star for that smart move. Not only using premium cheese but sourcing it from a local business. I like these guys more and more. The fresh basil hadn't been obliterated into pulp so it was a real treat to taste it against that gorgeous tomato sauce. Tomatoes and fresh basil, one of life's most simple yet most savoured pleasures.
The pizza menu is small, offering up 5 choices (three of them are meatless, two all cheese types, one vegetarian), then your traditional pepperoni & a BBQ chicken option. All pizzas are prices $12.99-$13.99 and are perfect for sharing for two. The menu also offers up four sandwiches all prices at $7.00. Can't speak to the quality of the sandwiches but I'll definitely be back to BP to check them out.
I took my girlie pal Barb for lunch and she loved it. Pizza and two lattes set us back $20.50. My only complaint would be that it would be handy if they gave us a little plate to eat our pizza off. The pizza got put down on the table and they gave us some napkins. With that being said we managed but I know this would be a sticking point for some people. It's a tiny spot, seating for about 10 people so BP is really geared to the take out crowd.
Finally the fourth star for the really cool couple behind the counter who really show their customers the love with such great pizza and make you feel just like an old friend dropping in. When they put the pizza down on the table he asked us..."this your first pizza with us?". They cared and it showed. I've made some new friends on Annette. I'll be back to Buddha Pie. The 'za awaits.
My daughter Meg attends the University up in Guelph and she is pretty much a regular visitor at the market on Saturday mornings. The GFM has a permanent site located right in the historical downtown of Guelph itself. When weather permits there are also outside vendors. I paid my first visit this past Saturday and was really amazed at how just about every single vendor at the market really was a local producer/grower/crafter/baker/farmer etc. I was also amazed at how crowded and well attended the market was. The market is permanently opened on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to noon and right up until closing time it is just jammed full of people.
Vendors include local farmers selling all sorts of meat products, including venison & elk. There is a very large contingent of Mennonite vendors who bring in home baked goods that are just so reminiscent of my childhood that it took all my will not to buy everything I could put my hands on. There are cookies, preserves & jams, scones, breads, baps (it's a Scottish thing), traditional loaves and lots of specialty baked goods appealing those with gluten & sugar issues. I've learned that there is a 60's throwback hippie group alive and well in Guelph and their visibility jumps tenfold on Saturdays where they are found in the market selling their hats, their crafts, their honey, their beeswax candles and their whole earth goodies. I scored some incredibly tasty and well made dumplings (ginger beef) that I ended up serving for dinner and even reheated they were delish. One needs a real willpower not to be chowing down on all the bits and pieces you can nibble on as you meander through the crowds.
Most of the produce is seasonal so that means that this past weekend it was all about apples, squash, potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, leeks, cabbages & kale! Fresh cut local flowers are still available and one couldn't help but to ogle the lovely bunches of Asters and fall Mums.
Recalling the prices....Oatmeal cookies $3.50 (13 cookies); Bag of Honeycrisp apples $8; small basket of fingerling Sweet Potatoes $3.00; bunches of Kale $1.00; Large Onions $1.00; Dozen Ginger Beef Dumplings (with a container of dipping glaze) $7.50; Scones $1.50 per.....and so it goes.
In the end I left feeling that this particular Farmer's Market is one of my most absolute favorite spots. I definitely make the effort to return to this particular market.

Elite Event At Chino Locos
Category: Local Flavor
Neighbourhoods: Garden District, Church-Wellesley Village
I brought my S.O. to his very first Yelp event and afterwards he said to me "now I can see why you like this group so much". Highlights included having Carolyn B. join in the evening, getting a chance to chat up Will and of course treating Dave O's jacket like it was a Genie's Lamp....can you say tactile? Always lovely to meet up again with Yelp couples, Brian and Melinda (ummmm.....sorry about the beer fiasco Melinda :) and Chris P. and his lovely bride Danielle (ahem). Andrew you were looking your usual hot self....damn those guns on you are in good shape. Amazing how many people you can see when the lights are up. Love chatting and hanging with Dale, Carmen and cute little door girl Kat, who so kindly kept me supplied with my disappearing name tags.
Good job Kat! Missing from the Elite equation....Jay & Katrina, most obviously my beloved sista Yelper, Deanna (who was hosting Vivek & Mel C. in NYC), Shari (hope you are feeling better girl!), the lovely Hana, Abby and Farheen.
Loved Local 4 for the after party. Good call Kat! Reasonably priced booze and nice atmosphere, great service. The staff popped by our table a few times to make sure we had what we needed.
Oh and Chris....I'm happy to be the Mother (as long as its not the Motherf*cker, all is ok!). Just as long as your honey made it home safe and sound. :)
Again, thanks Kat. Otro trabajo bien hecho! Best of luck to Chino Locos in this new location.
The previous two reviews (Farheen and Dave. "It's all about the five stars" O.) were both quite positive. I must say I really enjoyed trying the carafe of Korean booze called Soju. We ordered the ginger infused version of it and the more I drank of it, the more I liked it. Susan forewarned though, its a hangover waiting to happen. Dave likened it to Korean tequila, encouraging me to eat the worm which was really a big hunk of ginger in the bottom of the carafe.
I enjoyed the appy's more than the actual main, Swish, itself. My fav app was the Jelly Fish salad which had lots of different things going on in terms of texture and tastes. Fareen is right, Purple Yam Frites (which looked really cool) were well over cooked. Chili Shrimp had a big bang on the first bite but the flavour and the heat waned really quick. Dumplings are what they are, you can get these pretty much anywhere these days even though essentially it works on the same premise.
The Swish itself was ok. I do find this style of food rather bland though. Essentially you are just boiling everything and for me I think it would have been more enjoyable if they had offered up a small choice of dipping sauces. They gave us each one small bowl of a sweet chili dipping sauce with the exact same flavour that was on the Chili Shrimp app. A Swish costs $25.00 and I'm of the same mind as Dave, they could have been a bit more generous with the meat/seafood. The myriad of mushrooms was great but again, I found it bland and I'm a girl who likes food that has a kick to it. I asked Susan about comparing it to the Rolling Pot and she said it was very different.
The one part that I found interesting and entertaining was when they added the rice to one of the Swish pots, stirring it until it melded into an almost Congee like concoction. Still though, I found this bland and added some of the dipping sauce to both the rice and the noodles just to give it a flavour boost.
I hope Swish does well because it is definitely a different option along Wellington Street. I'd venture back in, next time though I'd stick to small plates and middle plates and forgo the Swish altogether.

Sandwich Box
Category: Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Financial District
So, it's pretty simple. You pick a bread/bun. You pick a condiment. You pick a meat. You pick a cheese. You pick another filling. They slap it together, whack it on the panini griller and off you go. The sandwich gets plopped into a eco-friendly paper box with a small green leafy salad beside it.
The good is that the SB uses both Fred's Breads and Ace. So the base of what they start with has quality, good flavour and substance. They offer interesting combos with lots of choices of spreads so you could probably eat a sandwich here every day for the next year and never have the same thing twice. I opted for a onion foccacia with a mustard spread, prosciutto, brie cheese and caramelized onions (I'm having a big onion moment here!). It was really great.
The downside was that the side salad wasn't really dressed enough so it was a bit dry and using only mesclun greens it was slightly bitter.
The other downside is that the lineups/cash register get confusing. One place for soup. One place for sandwiches. One place for salads. I must say though I was totally impressed with the salad bar. Lots and lots of choices, all very fresh and all very spotlessly clean.
I'll definitely be back!
The real upside of this lunch was finally getting a chance to meet my fellow Yelptress, the lovely Carolyn B. T'was a pleasure my dear. :)

The Stockyards
Categories: American (Traditional), Barbeque
No smoked meat available. (even louder sobbing)
Buttermilk soaked fried chicken is available! (sigh of relief) Fuck the Colonel and his finger licking KFC, get your ass up to St. Clair and Christie Street and eat some real kick ass fried chicken.
Did a quick pit stop on the way home to the rolling hills of Caledon and grabbed up an order of their house specialty fried chicken. It's still 12 bucks for an order, a 20 minute wait and comes with a freaking sky high pile of crispy, skinny fries. La dolce vita. I opened up the box on the way home to let the steam out so the fries and the chicken wouldn't get soggy. Couldn't help but to toss out a chicken leg bone as I cruised up Hwy. 50 (hey c'mon, it's compostable so don't be giving me any of that don't litter the highway grief).
Got home and my SO was lured away from his 52" plasma tv and Monday night football by the aroma of this chicken. I just love it when something as simple as fried chicken, not just any fried chicken mind you, we are talking the Stockyards fried chicken, can get such good loving out of a man! :)
By the way, they are now offering a very interesting Sunday special. Black Angus Prime Rib Dinner in a box for FOUR. You get medium rare meat, smashed spuds, green beans and some sort of apple crispy dessert. Major meat, we are talking Grade A Black Angus Beef, with all the fixings. Price tag $90.00. If it's meat from the SY's....it'll be worth every single penny.
Go to the Stockyards. Go now. Go by streetcar. Go by foot. Go by car. Hitch a ride. Crawl if you have to. Just go. Best BBQ in the city. Best smoker in T.O. It'll be worth every minute of the effort. Call first though to see what's available. Ribs aren't there every night. Some smoked meat, like Caplansky's is subject to availability.

Oh there is gonna be some good lovin for Momma tonight! Yowza! I was on my way back from a meeting at St. Clair & Yonge, trundling along in the construction when I hit Christie St. and before you could sing R-E-S-P-E-C-T I was hauling my junk into The Stockyards. I was starving for a bit of lunch and I figured might as well get my fill of 'smokin good meat. It was mid-afternoon so I caught a break and the place was winding down from the lunch mania.
After inspecting the menu and realizing that one of my man's most fav chowdowns includes Porcetta I opted to get some take-out that I could drag home for him and my daughter. I'm such a good woman. :) I bought three sandwiches: Porcetta; Pulled Pork and Smoked Pulled Chicken. I asked them not to put the meat on the bun as by the time I would get it home it would be sog city. When the guy at the counter took my order he was quite happy to help me out with my request. The girl behind the counter snorted "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat! Pack it all separately?!!!" as she screwed up her face at the inconvenience and extra work. I quickly shouted out "hey girlie girl....this food is gonna get me some good lovin tonight!". The place broke up in to hysterics. Then she replies "oh well in that case....no problem girlfriend!", shot me a big smile and a big wink. It's smoked meat in the sisterhood ya know!
I also order the fried Chicken because I've heard so much about it. It is 12 bucks and what you get are four pieces (half a chicken), a pile of crispy, golden fries and some slaw. The slaw I could take or leave. The fries were perfection although they need to lighten up on the salt a bit. Any haunting demons about KFC will be exorcised with this fried chicken. Be prepared to wait, the chicken takes about 20 minutes. They also have daily specials, today was a five buck burger.
I sidled up to the counter with a glass of the house Limeade to wait for my order and began gabbing with Rochelle, the manager. She told me that they've struggled to meet the rib demand because the smoker can only hold so many racks in a day. I don't suspect that problem will get any easier, the place just reeks of bbq flavour from floor to ceiling. I felt like Pavlov's doggy when I walked in the door.
On a whimsical side note, I had a major childhood flashback. They use paper straws at the Stockyards! I can't even remember when I last saw one of those green and white swirly paper straws. All of their packaging is green/biodegradable/ compostable.
They completely packed my sandwich orders separately so when I get home tonight my loved ones can put their own sandwiches together. I had bites out of all of the meat they packed up. As God is my witness I shall never, ever become vegetarian. Pulled pork & Porcetta should never taste this damn good. The sandwiches are coming out the door with me shortly to make their way to the hinterland that is known as Caledon. I have a feeling that Momma's gonna have a happy hubby this evening and you know what that means baby.....there's gonna be good loving for this woman tonight!

Gio Rana's Really Really Nice Restaurant
Category: Italian
Neighbourhood: Leslieville
Gio Rana's is one of those restaurants that if you ever ventured into during daylight hours you'd run screaming from the place. It is a night time only dining adventure for this spot. Daylight hides a lot of dingy walls and even grubbier ceilings that are badly in need of washing, painting and just general updating. This is a Restaurant Makeover waiting to happen.
I'm probably one of the few Yelpers (besides Neil...great minds think alike!) that give Gio's the "meh" factor. While it is a great spot in that we needed something to accommodate our large group to bid adieu to our beloved Deanna, my sister FARC and charcuterian loving kindred spirit, but that is pretty much about where it ended for me.
Being situated along the perimeter of the kitchen was geographically a nightmare for those who sat with their back to the rushing waitstaff. Getting whacked in the back, nudged in the noggin and stepped on doesn't make for a fun dining experience. But hey, they gotta pack 'em while they can because the resto business is a tough go these days. WTF is up with those greasy, filthy menu covers? People we are in the middle of germ-o-phobia days what with H1N1 going on. Just holding on to that menu made me want to get out my sanitizer and give it a washing over.
Anyway, Dea and I opted to share as we usually do. We ordered up the Crespelle, some Rigatoni (app sizes) to start and then would follow it with a beef rib shank and some shredded brussel sprout salad. Ok...everyone's talking about the fab-u-less-ness of the staff. We got no apps. While everyone else was chowing down on their openers we got nothing. It all showed up at once when the mains got served. The Crespelle was cold and sort of slimy. The Rigatoni was steaming hot and for me was actually the best of what was served. The beef rib/shank was ok. Braising its a chef's easy way out. It's no fail but I found the meat to be stringy and especially fatty. There wasn't much flavour factor going on there either. I did feel the love for the Brussel Sprout salad though, crispy, no dressing glommed on. What about the bread on the tables? This restaurant has a ton of amazing bakeries around (Brick Street being one of them) and they serve up bread that reminds me of the subs used at Mr. Sub. So sad.
The best thing I tasted all night was Danielle's sweet potato mash. She was sitting next to me and her and Abby were making orgasmic moans so I caved and gave it a taste. I should have just ordered up a plate of those and been done with it.
Would I go back? Nah. I'd be willing to spend a few more bucks and head east and hit up Tomi-Kro's instead. A much wiser choice for spending my hard earned bucks and unlikely that I'll get tackled by waitstaff. At least handling the menus doesn't want to have me running for the washroom to scrub my digits.
In the end though, we came to celebrate a legend Yelper, Deanna. Lucky girl has now moved on to Yelping in one of the best food cities in the world....NYC. Hey Dea....I'm waiting for Boba. :)
I never thought I'd ever say this but I actually think I found a Charcuterie Board that I liked better than my most beloved Black Hoof. Served up on a large piece of petrified wood the Splendido Charcuterie board is un-fucking-believable. Please excuse the vernacular, it is just difficult to put it any other way. The board could easily be shared by two people as an app. It's loaded with everything from Foie Gras parfait mousse, several types of house cured meats, macerated cherries, venison tartar, chicken liver pate, Lardo (or something akin to it), bread sticks wrapped in porcetta, poached plum and apple and on and on. This board has colour, texture, it's got sweetness, it's got savoury happening and it's got some bite with spice.
For mains I chose the Butter Lobster with chanterelle & mascarpone Risotto and Dea selected the Yorkshire Suckling Pig.
We opted for the wine flights to accompany our food. Tawse Winery was the featured wines and the flight included 4 different glasses (the flight is priced at $26) which said 2 ounce pours. So let the love begin...because they were very generous pours. Our waiter brought the first two (a Chardonnay and a Sauv. Blanc) and suggested to us to "save" the Chardonnay and as it turns out there was a wonderful reason for this. The waiter surprised us with a course of one of the most amazing pastas I've ever eaten. It was fresh Tagliatelle covered in shavings of Tartufi. Our nostrils were absolutely overwhelmed by the aromatic scent of the mushroom as he put the plates down. He told us that Chef/Owner Victor Barry had sent them out for us to benchmark this special occasion. We washed down our pasta with the honey coloured Tawse chardonnay. Oh Splendido, you really know how to show a couple of girls a good time.
Mains were stellar. Crackling pigs ear to be crunched and beautiful fresh lobster meat to be worshipped. The risotto was was an absolute thing of beauty. It was smooth and silky, kissed by mascarpone and flavour enhanced by the chanterelles.
We finished off the evening with the Lemon Meringue dessert. It was sweet and tart at the same time (much like us!) and was a lip smacker. So just when we thought we'd seen all the love we can handle, Carlo Catallo, the owner, who had already stopped by our table to chat wines, stopped by one more time, with some gorgeous late harvest Riesling in tow to enhance our dessert moment. He wanted to make sure we finished up our Splendido experience on a happy and positive note. Boy, this guy is one sweet talker.
What a night. The chef stopped by to ask us about the pasta and of course we fawned over him as if he was Brad Pitt. I left my heart on Harbord Street that night with a memory of simply one of the best dining experiences I've had the good fortune to indulge in.
My last words about Splendido would be that while it may seem pricey, you can indulge and enjoy some of their deliciousness by just sitting up at the bar, imbibing in one of their fantastic cocktails and ordering up a Charcuterie board for two. Then again, you might get lucky as Dea and I did, having the restaurant comp us the pasta and the dessert wine. Absolute class all the way.
Splendido, until we meet again...ti amo.

Black Hoof
Categories: Champagne Bars, Gastropubs
Neighbourhood: Little Italy
As usual the cocktails rocked. Rosy Cheeks all the way for this girl! Tis cool that they actually garnish this drink with a fresh rose petal. Drinks aside, the Black Hoof had its carnivore A game in full working gear. We shared, noshed, gabbed, laughed, cajoled and bonded as foodies over the charcuterie board.
Of course everyone at the table knew what we came for....giddeup! That's right, it was all about the raw horse meat sammy. If you ain't into the tartar then ain't gonna be your thing. Seasoned raw horse meat piled high with an egg yolk on the top, garnished with onions and some lip tingling mustard made for a major mmmmmm moment. It's pretty cool that they spell the word horse on a slice of bread with the mustard.
It was a great way to spend Deanna's last evening in the city knowing it was one of her most favorite spots. Now I'm waiting patiently for the Baby Hoof to open up across the street. Can't wait to see what they've got in store for us there.

Mooooooooooooooooooo ooooooo. This ain't no place for the vegetarians, that is for certain. With its small blackboard menu, the Black Hoof puts its efforts in to foods such Ravioli with Lambs Brain, Sweet Breads (say that in a really, high squeaky voice), Beef Heart and their trademark Charcuterie boards. The whole philosophy behind charcuterie is that you don't waste anything and if you are going to eat the animal, eat it from head to tail.
My fellow FARC (that's my acronym for Food Narc) is my yelpie winger, Deanna. She's a veteran attendee at the Black Hoof so I jumped at the chance when she asked me to join her. It was a thing of beauty watching her order up the Charcuterie Board, being very specific with the waitstaff as to what she wanted to see on the board. If you check her review she'll give the lowdown on what showed up at our table. The only thing lacking was the presence of what I believe to be Pingue Prosciutto. The table behind us ordered a full board of it and I honestly thought Deanna was going to pull a Seinfeld moment and wander over and help herself to their board. I must say the charcuterie board at the Black Hoof, is by far and away, the best I've had in the city. The pate is like silk and the duck rillette (sp?) is so delicious. The hints of spice, smoke and salt between the cured meats is subtle and I really liked how they cut them in different thicknesses. We ordered no cheese. This was an all meat moment.
We shared a main (insert the sound of my arteries choking) and devoured a crispy, smokey, moist and savory Pork Belly Pastrami which was outstanding. It sat atop a summery potato corn salad that complimented it beautifully. Dessert was ummmm....interesting . It was four small stacks of bread pudding stuffed with warm, melted chocolate and crispy, crumbled bacon, topped with a dollop of fresh whipping cream. I'm not quite sure how I felt about this mixture and it didn't have the gasp factor that we look for in desserts. I do believe though it's an interesting mixture of the saltiness of the bacon against the chocolate melted in to it. Be sure to check out the pics I pasted up to give you an idea of the architecture of this dessert.
What surprised me about the Black Hoof was their cocktail menu. Ab fab. There are a lot of bars and cocktail lounges that could take a cue from this little hub on Dundas St. They offer up about a half dozen choices of fresh, zingy, spunky, funky cocktails to quaff back while hoovering back all that salty cured meat. I had a Rosey Rose and a Ginger Gin, the latter being my fav. The sangria also looked like it was worth trying (the boys at the next table highly recommended it). The wine list is also outstanding with a decent by the glass choice. Waitstaff was great. My only criticism of The Black Hoof is that it is a small place and that means it can really heat up when it is in full swing. We sat out in the back add on which initially was great. It is built of cedar wood and the scent of the cedar is gorgeous. It gives you the feeling of being in a bit of a tree house with all the boarding around it however with that being said, there is no air movement what so ever. It was a humid and warm evening and by the end of the meal I felt like I was sitting in a bit of a sauna.
Regardless, I can clearly understand why my yelpie bud and fellow FARC, Deanna has become a regular on the Dundas St. resto. Show us the beef!

The menu at Arepa is focused on Venezuelan food so we just went with the flow. My SO and I ordered up a couple of Arepas which are the Venezuelan version of a sandwich. They look like a large English muffin and are made of corn meal. They are cooked on a griddle, then moved to a grill and then slit open, pulled apart and stuffed like a pocket. I ordered the pork & caramelized onions and my SO ordered the Cod with sweet peppers & onions. There are about 9 or so options of how you can have your Arepa stuffed from Tuna to Chicken to Cheese & Avocado. The Arepa is hot and freshly made to order and the average price is about $7 each.
For the most part we enjoyed them although I would have liked some condiments on the tables because my pork and onion sandwich was screaming out for a splash of Kozlik's mustard or something comparable. My other comment would be that they would really do the Arepa justice to side it with something, either some salad or some Venezuelan cole slaw (which is on the menu) because if you have any sort of appetite you'll be left wanting for more. Which is exactly what we found. The Arepa comes in a basket all by its lonesome self. It needs something to keep it company.
We also ordered a platter (all the proper Venezuelan names of the platters etc. is escaping my brain!) of flank steak with rice, black beans and fried plantain. The flank steak was delicious. It was shredded and mixed with some red & yellow peppers, onions and some sort of sauce. The only problem with it was there just wasn't enough of it. This platter was $11 and like the Arepa, my SO and I agreed, these were small servings.
My feelings about Venezuelan food is that it doesn't have the flavour pop of Thai or Indian foods. I like food with an attitude and I'm not just talking about heat, but foods that have truly distinct flavours that make you close your eyes and brings on the mmmmmmmm factor. The shredded flank steak was there but its meager portion disappointed us. The soup of the day was a butternut squash with honey and almonds. I didn't try it but I did ask the couple next to me about it and they really liked it. It did look like it had the consistency of a veloute.
The cafe itself is lovely. Bright, airy, spacious and spotless. The staff were super friendly and quite chatty. They also have some lovely little desserts and coffee which might make this a sweet spot for an afternoon cafe leche and something to tame the sweet tooth. I brought back some cookies for my office which were like two layers of thin shortbread with Dulce La Leche slathered in between holding them together. These were exquisite.
Pics to follow. I'd like to wish Eduardo Lee all the best at their introduction to what he calls "Venezuelan urbanity" to the Queen Street core.
