Looking for a meal on a Friday night we decided to head down to Union. Its a cute spot just north of Queen on Ossington. The place is packed full of pretty people. We squeeze in through the door. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, the sounds of eating float through the air. In the …

Restaurant Review: Gus and Guidos
Gus and Guidos is quote “A Greek Italian Experience.” An experience is definately what you get when you walk through the doors and sit down to have dinner at this establishment. My experience has left me wanting to drive into Toronto and get the taste of this terrible meal from my palette by eating at …
Epic Food Scan 6: Frankfurter Crown Roast
What a wonderful and creative way to use hotdogs! This Frankfurter crown roast is filled with sauerkraut and garnished with the classic parsley and pimento. The greatest part is that this comes courtesy of Weight Watchers Recipe Cards. This monstrosity has no part in anyones diet.
Yellow Griffin Pub
Finding ourselves in Bloor West and really craving a quality homemade burger, we decided to try out the Yellow Griffin Pub (Bloor and Runnymede) and wow, were we ever disappointed.

Food Fail: Scary Face Food

New Feature: Epic Food Scans!
I was recently over for dinner at a friends house. He brought out a few books that his dad had rescued from a local thrift store. One giant and slightly off smelling tome, called “The Creative Cooking Course”, is an opus to haute cuisine of the late 60’s and 70’s shown through the jaded eyes …
Stock
Right now I am sitting at one end of my home dining table. At the other end, on the other side is my brand new stock pot. It is the largest stock pot I have ever owned. The gianorma-pot is sitting on an induction burner and in it are the slow beginnings of a demi …
