Daily Bread’s Ultimate Chef Challenge

05.08.13

In Canada, we’re proud of the food we grow and make. Despite the wide range of great ingredients found in our country, there still exists a lack of access to food. The Daily Bread Food Bank (@DailyBreadTO)not only addresses the causes of hunger in their goal to end it, but they also provide long-term employment opportunities through the Food Services Training program and the Daily Bread Catering Kitchen.

Wordless Wednesdays: Skin & Bones

04.27.13 

There were easily over 100 restaurant openings last year in 2012. How many are notable and which are “return-worthy” depends on whom you talk to. For me, Skin& amp; Bones (which opened in late November) merits multiple return visits. It’s taken me awhile to go back, but better late than never! 

Forced hiatus

 You may be wondering why I’ve been so MIA the past couple of months! My answer: that’s what teacher’s college does to you. I’ve been meaning to post more and in particular, write a post very similar to this over a month ago but I was too busy (ironically enough).

For me, there isn’t much guesswork when it comes to eating in the downtown core. There’s only about a handful or so restaurants that I’d dine at, no questions asked. With the right combination of great food, atmosphere and decent price points, The Gabardine (@TheGabardine) is one of those few restaurants.

Happy Easter! To some, ‘tis the day of gorging on those Cadbury mini eggs. As for me, I find myself hunched over my laptop, frantically getting work done for tomorrow. Oh, and I got offered the same summer job position in France as a couple years ago and this time, I took it! After training, I’ll be leaving for France at the end of June!!!!!!
