Hi all, it’s been a while. Life’s been keeping me busy. I hope I can post at least once a month here. Otherwise, I’d be wasting my hosting service. Let’s start off again with a good one – Copacabana. Copacabana is a Brazilian buffet. You can get up and grab your own salads and bread [...]

This SongCook’s is at 6-72 Steeles Ave. W., Thornhill.  (647) 678-8000 I came to this SongCook’s after an afternoon of volleyball at Woodbine beach. This place was recommended by at least 2 of my Korean friends and 1 friend who recently came back from 1+ year teaching in Korea. This was a hot day, so [...]

Burger’s Priest is ranked #6 on Toronto Life’s top 25 best burger joints in Toronto (http://www.torontolife.com/daily/daily-dish/from-the-print-edition-daily-dish/2012/05/16/25-best-burgers/). I went to the Queen St E and Coxwell location after some beach volleyball; there is another location at Yonge and Lawrence. This location does not let you eat inside the shop because it’s so tiny. It only has [...]

Come and Get It is located at Queen St West and Spadina, North-West corner. (170 Spadina Ave, Toronto. Just north of the McDonald’s and where Ackee Tree used to be.) The store name, Come and Get It, is graffitied above the store-front and right beside the entrance. So if you’re looking for a neon sign, [...]

Banh Mi Boys is located at Queen St West and Spadina, North-West corner. (392 Queen St West, Toronto) Hours: (*very important) Mon-Fri: 11am-10pm Sat: 11am-9pm Sun: closed This is a fast-food style restaurant, mostly for takeouts. It only has about 4 tables and seats around 16 people. I ordered the Duck Confit ($7.49) and a Five [...]

Ematei – always wanted to try this place. I always heard good things about it from other people. It is an authentic Japanese restaurant with Japanese chefs and waitresses. I tried it recently, on a Sunny afternoon; took my mom there after Canada Blooms. We walked into the restaurant at 5:15pm, not knowing they open [...]

I’ve been to the Dundas+Hurontario (NE corner) location and the Streetsville (Tannery) location. There is another location downtown at Adelaide and University (218 Adelaide St W, Toronto), among others. Burrito Boyz is one of the best burritos in Toronto. I thought it was comparable to the burrito I tried in San Diego, but my friends [...]

I went to Niwatei based on a friend’s recommendation. It was a little bit hard to find because this restaurant doesn’t have proper signage. Just look for the restaurant right next to Izakaya Ju. This place has confusing business hours, so here is their hours in picture format:           I tried [...]

Arirang is located at 1177 Central Parkway W, south-east corner of Burnhamthorpe and Central Parkway W in Mississauga. This is a Korean BBQ restaurant where you can order a la carte or all-you-can-eat (AYCE). I saw a lot of Korean-speaking customers, so this place must be authentic. (probably owned by Koreans too) My only complaint [...]

One time after yoga class at Yoga Tree, I marched into Ichimoto by myself because my friend had abandoned me for work. And also because 90+% of people liked Ichimoto on Urbanspoon. Ichimoto is located at 360 Hwy 7 East, Richmond Hill. I went in for their a la carte menu, which was very reasonably [...]
