REVIEW | Wahlburgers

If you weren't part of the group that waited in the long line when Wahburgers first opened its doors in Toronto, you will be happy to know that you can get the same great burger without freezing in line in subzero Canadian weather.


To be honest, when we first walked into Wahlburgers, we were a little confused. Why? We weren't sure whether it was a fast food place as most burger joints in Toronto are or if it was a sit-down. Thankfully that awkward moment standing there ended shortly when we were approached and seated. That's one of the things that makes Wahlburgers stand out from others - you can go in for a quick meal but still get full service.

While this is not our favourite burger spot, we do have to give them some credit for having an impressive menu. Not only do they offer a large variety of burgers, sandwiches and wraps, some of them are pretty unique!

BBQ Bacon Burger 
The name says it all. Who doesn't love a good bacon burger with BBQ sauce?

Our Burger
Their signature burger with their signature 'Walh Sauce'


Spinach Salad with Turkey Burger 
For those who are health-conscious, order a salad and add a turkey, chicken, beef or haddock burger to get your protein intake!


Thanksgiving Burger Lettuce-Wrapped 
See a burger or sandwich that you want but can't justify the extra carbs? Ask for it lettuce wrapped. Just a warning though that this is not the type of burger you can eat with your hands so get ready to dig in with a knife and fork!


Wahlburgers is worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for a quick meal or looking to grab a drink with a friend and need some sweet potato tots to wash down the pint or two you're having. Heck, you might even see a Wahlberg brother there if you're lucky! Unfortunately, we haven't lucked-out in that department yet!

REVIEW | Schnitzel Hub

If vodka, Biergarten or Eastern European food means anything to you then Schnitzel Hub is the place you want to be. The diversity of cuisines has expanded in the St. Clair and Yonge area with Schnitzel Hub's second location.  Unlike the Schnitzel Hub's first location in Vaughan, this new spot offers a full bar, many more seatings for groups as well as a private dining area.   For vodka lovers, you'll be surprised to see some artisan house-infused vodkas at Schnitzel Hub with crazy flavours like lemon & ginger, candy, smoked bacon and even honey & chili pepper! I suggest you sip these infused vodkas to really taste the flavours.  Personally, I enjoyed the lemon & ginger but many others were raving about the horseradish! Now, onto the food offerings. This restaurant prides itself on creating homemade, authentic meals from Eastern an Central Europe with a focus on schnitzels.  I must say the portions here are very generous so it's a great spot to go for din...

REVIEW | HoneyButter - Decadent Macarons and more...

Who doesn't love desserts? We certainly do and that's why we were so excited to try out HoneyButter's   macarons!    HoneyButter is a private dessert company founded by Grace who offers a wide variety of desserts including cheesecakes, tarts, cupcakes cookies and of course macarons.  Anyone who likes to bake will tell you that baking is essentially a science. Proportions have to be exact or else the result turns out to be one of those "baking fails" that everyone laughs about. However, not all baking is created equally...cookies and breads tend to be on the easier side and then there are the macarons...in their perfect little shells just taunting you to attempt conquering them. Having tried and failed numerous times at making macarons myself, it's nice to know I can contact HoneyButter  to order some and know that when they arrive they'll look nothing like my own personal baking fail. The list of flavours for macarons is almost never ending and for HoneyBu...

REVIEW | Ki Modern Japanese + Bar

We spent one Monday evening at Ki Modern Japanese + Bar in Brookfield Place for dinner and drinks. Located in the heart of the financial district, we weren't surprised to see so many people in suits. The restaurant is quite modern (as it says in its name) and chic and has that downtown bustle and liveliness, even on a weeknight. Not to spoil our experience in the first paragraph, but we're still thinking about the Dassai Sake we had with the Sake Sommelier! We've been to many Japanese restaurants and izakaya's in the city but this is the first time that we've actually meet a Safe Sommelier. Michael Tremblay is a National Sake Sommelier and has created the largest sake list in Canada at Ki Modern Japanese. He's taught us a lot about the different sake and even took us through a tasting, which we highly recommend. The sake we tried was the Dassai '50' Junmai Daiginjo - super clean and smooth with a hint of fruits. A lot of places you can taste wine and w...
