Mitzi's Sister
      It's my goal to get through all of my Toronto eats before the end of the year, so at least I can say it only took me 6 or so months. Ha. Anyway. Both Mitzi's Cafe …

Plate 38
      I think it’s difficult to review a place that doesn’t WOW you or make you filled with rage. It’s the eateries that hit the mark of just above mediocre, that …

Dog Haus

Inn of the Seventh Ray
      It’s been a few years since my mom and I made the summer trek to Topanga Canyon. We usually eat at Froggy’s, but my love has waned with their quality and menu. …

'Lette Macarons

Greg's Ice Cream
      Why is all of the good stuff in Toronto? Huh? Polish food, Portuguese pastries, customized cookies and now this – this! – the tastiest ice cream I ever did taste. …

Poutini's House of Poutine
        When I knew I was set for Toronto there was one word in my mind: poutine.   For the unenlightened: Poutine is a Canadian invention consisting of a layer …

El Tepeyac Cafe
Adam Richman, host of Travel Channel’s Man vs. Food, is a likable enough guy and though he lead me astray once, I had it on good authority from my sister that the Manuel Special from El Tepeyac …

My grandmother started the tradition of going to an afternoon tea on our shared birthday, July 17th. When she passed on in January of 2006, I was at a loss. Who would go to tea with me? I don’t …

red + white + bluezz
        There needs to be a twelve-step program for weaning oneself off of Groupon. Until then, I am enjoying my addiction merrily. The latest food related Groupon I purchased …
reviewed Radhika Modern Indian Bistro. March 24, 2011
posted in Dining Out
I have been a customer of Radhika’s for years. I may or may not have first patronized them at their original home in Alhambra, but my memory fails me and it wasn’t until their move to Shopper’s …

Cafe Bizou
Is it shameless to review the lovely, upscale bistro that my boyfriend lovingly took me to for our first anniversary? Maybe so, maybe so, but food is my life and no occasion is too sacred for my pen …

A short time before Christmas I purchased a Groupon for a sushi joint that I’ve always wanted to try but, for one reason or another, never got around to. The sushi joint in question: Sushi of Naples, …

Ever since my regular sushi place starting to slide downhill, I have been on the hunt for a replacement, but hesitant to really try out anything new for fear I’d be wasting my effort. There is …

Ozumo Contemporary Japanese Cuisine
  I don’t know why I even bother to try new places when I’m not on the clock. I suppose, as a food writer, I have an inherent guilt if I don’t give something a go. Something …
