WORKSHOP | Sausage Making Class at The Healthy Butcher on Eglinton!

Recently named 'Best Butcher in Toronto' by Now Magazine, the Healthy Butcher just may become your go-to butcher shop for organically & locally-sourced meats as well as sustainable seafood! It's no surprise that The Healthy Butcher caters to those that 'live to eat' as they're passionate about food themselves. In fact, they're so serious, that they offer educational and fun workshops on roasting, knife skills, butchering and lots more...

The hands-on workshops and classes are held on weekday evenings and range from $40 to $125 per person depending on the class. With an intimate group, you'll be sure to learn a new set of skills at these 2.5 hr classes at The Healthy Butcher in the company of other food lovers.

When I first heard about their workshops, I thought it would be a perfect team-building exercise for co-workers but it would be great to take friends or family as it's a great time overall.

The Healthy Butcher Sausage War Media Class was hosted by co-founder Mario Fiorucci. This is said to be their most popular class and this might be because we get to eat the sausages that we make at the end! Just kidding - it's very informative and you can see everything that goes into the making of a delicious and organic sausage with no additives!

If you're someone that enjoys cooking at home you will definitely appreciate the quality of meats at The Healthy Butcher. Using quality ingredients makes a big difference in the outcome of the dish and being conscious about what we put in our body is becoming even more important to us.

Attending one of the classes at the Healthy Butcher can show you exactly how they handle and prepare the meats they're offering at the shop as well!

Take a look at the photos from the sausage class:

What you see, is what you get! It's no wonder why the quality and flavour of the HB meat is unsurpassed after seeing the sausage making process.

The Healthy Butcher prides itself on offering organic meats that are raised on pastures without any use of antibiotics or growth hormones and fed only certified organic feed.

If you're passionate about organic meat as well, you'll find beef, chicken, pork, lamb, duck, bison, geese, rabbit and more that are certified organic and locally-raised at the HB.

So, just in time for the Holidays, what about attend a roasting class and impress everyone with the perfect roast or a rack of lamb?

REVIEW | Yasu

Just over a year ago, Yasu Sushi Bar opened in Harbord Village, sending a buzz around Toronto about the newest spot for the best nigiri. We, of course were intrigued and couldn't wait to try it - what took us so long, right? Finally, we made reservations and experience the sushi-only omakase at Yasu, first hand. Omakase translates to a meal, comprised of Chef's selections. Yasu offers an 18-course Chef-selected nigiri meal with a dessert at the end. The restaurant takes 2 seatings on weeknights from 6PM and another at 8:30PM. On weekends, there are 3 seatings at 5PM, 7:15PM and 9:30PM. And yes, a reservation is required to dine at Yasu. As this is an Omakase-style meal, so naturally, the space is limited. At Yasu, that means 13 diners at the bar and 2 on a table by the window at one seating time. I personally suggest sitting by the bar to watch all the sushi-magic happen and be the first to get the pieces. I noticed that the plates being sent to the table were a...

OPENING | Montreal's popular PoutineVille opens in Toronto's Annex neighbourhood

The arrival of Poutineville to the Annex means that we can finally have all you can eat poutine and a heart attack - just kidding! We don't mean a real heart attack but Poutineville's infamous 15 lb. poutine called 'The Heart Attack." Co-owners Kosta Kariotakis and Camillo Fresco's vision of selling the best poutines which originated in Montreal has quickly grown to locations in Quebec City and Toronto as well. What makes this poutine joint stand out from the rest is definitely the variety on the menu, an option to customize your very own poutine, all you can eat poutine and the largest poutine you'll find in Toronto! Our evening began with delicious drinks made by Mixologist Nishan Nepulangoda . If you don't think poutine and cocktails mix, think again because upscale interior doesn't make you think you're in a poutine restaurant at all! Their Toronto location has a full service-bar, lounge area, banquettes and even a cozy patio ensuring y...

REVIEW | Marben Restaurant on Wellington for dinner with some foodies from Zomato Toronto

Marben Restaurant has always been on my list but for some reason, I have yet to try - so when Zomato's foodie dinner was at this restaurant, I was beyond excited. Marben is well known for its farm-to-table menu that is constantly evolving, and mostly catering to the after work crowd in the King West neighbourhood. Once home to Top Chef Carl Heinrich, this locally driven restaurant has been led by Executive Chef, Rob Bragagnolo . He grew up in a family of chefs, spending his summers in Italy working at family owned restaurants and pastry factory until he moved to Spain to professionally enhance his skills and techniques. There, he worked at Michelin-stared restaurants before heading to Toronto, Canada, the city he grew up in. His previous years in Spain & Italy is evident in the current menu, which reflects Spanish & Northern Italy flavours and style. The space inside and outside (including a street-side patio) are both beautiful, with wooden benches, exposed brick, mustard...
