On The Town: London – Part 1

On June 22, 2011 · 7 Comments

I recently was fortunate enough to spend five days in London (England, not Ontario).  I visited London about 7 or 8 years ago while studying abroad in France but seeing as I was in broke student mode I didn’t get a chance to do London to its fullest.

This time around [...]

A few months ago, the folks at MegaBus were giving away bus tickets. Literally giving them away. Originating in Toronto I had the choice of free tickets to either Buffalo, New York, Harrisburg, DC or Philly. Having never been to Philly (except [...]

On The Town: Viva Las Vegas!

On March 4, 2011 · 3 Comments

I had the opportunity to go to Las Vegas for work.  Interestingly enough the last time I was in Vegas was also for work (back in the days when I worked in TV for Roker) but that was probably 5 years ago and before I was seriously into food.  During the [...]

On The Town: Montreal Weekend

On August 20, 2010 · 9 Comments

I went to Montreal for the first time about 3 years ago and fell in love.  It’s a great city with a chill vibe and great food.  Oddly enough despite two trip to Montreal I’ve never blogged about my eating escapades. Go figure.

The trouble with Montreal is finding enough time [...]

For the strangest reason I’ve been craving a lobster roll for WEEKS.  I’m not sure what sparked it.  Problem is, there aren’t a ton of places in Toronto where I can get one (if you [...]

I love pizza.

On The Town: New York Eats

On January 8, 2010 · 1 Comment

I recently went to NYC and basically did nothing but eat. I wasn’t in a shopping mood (except on missions for others) so the whole trip consisted of meeting friends for a variety of meals. I went to a lot of places I’ve been to before and also some newer “hotspots”.  [...]
