REVIEW | Wah Sing Seafood Restaurant

Wah Sing Seafood Restaurant is one of those restaurants I went to with my family since I was little and always forget to recommend it to others - it's like a friend that you stop appreciating because they're always there for you (maybe not the best way to describe a restaurant). Recently, we had a dinner with our foodie friends there and the love for the place just grew that much more.

Spicy Deep Fried Squid

Wah Sing is located on Baldwin Street, just a block or two from the AGO. They're pretty well-known for their 2-1 lobster special at $35.95 - obviously my Korean parents took me there for that deal :)

The great thing about any Chinese restaurants is that you order as much variety as you can and just share, family-style with everyone. This way, you get to taste everything. The difference between this and tapas is that the portions are BIG.

Check out all the dishes we had, which didn't stop rolling out of the kitchen until we were stuffed!

Jumbo Shrimp in Lobster Sauce

Sizzling Beef in Special Sauce

Lobster Special with Ginger & Green Onion

Soft Shell Crab Fried Rice

Cantonese Style Chow Mein

Looking for a hearty, Chinese dinner? Definitely make a visit to Wah Sing for the double lobster special. Do get accompaniments with it - any type of fried rice, veggies and noodles are a must!

Ugh, writing this just made me crave this all over again!

REVIEW | Light Cafe

We find Baldwin Village to be a street in Toronto that is ever growing. You'll never know what to expect in terms of businesses that will pop up! Not to mention it's diverse food culture including gelato, ramen, Italian, Filipino food and so much more. It doesn't surprise us at all that Light Cafe decided to take residence on Baldwin. I have traveled quite extensively through Asia and can say with confidence that Light Cafe looks exactly like a cafe you would find in Taiwan. Not only is it spacious inside, I love the minimalist decor inside which provides a calming atmosphere. I could see myself sitting at the cafe for hours (within reason haha) and getting some work done. The first thing that we noticed and I'm sure many of you will as well - is the living wall. I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant where there was a living wall but I've always wanted one of my own. With the natural sunlight coming in with the wall, it's the perfect place to f...

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.

RECIPE | Alokozay Tea - Cinnamon tea infused panna cotta

Matcha tea has been a long time favourite when making any type of dessert and now more recently, it's expanded to other teas such as Chai or Early Grey. We decided to try making a panna cotta using cinnamon tea from Alokozay Tea. If you're looking to buy it in a store, try the international food section in Metro, Bulk Barn, Food Basics, or Adonis. If all else fails, do what we did and order it directly from their website. The website is extremely easy to navigate and you can get free shipping if you spend $39 or more. Customer service was amazing and replied to my emails within the same day! Click here to buy the tea online. Panna Cotta is a pretty straight forward dessert to make but it never fails to impress at dinner parties where you can serve them in individual ramekins. Ingredients - 2 Alokozay cinnamon tea bags - 3/4 cup half and half cream -1/2 cup 2% milk - 2 tbsp sugar - 1 tsp gelatin -fruits of your choice Method: 1. Mix the gelatin with ...
