LAUNCH | Boston Pizza's all-star menu items this summer

Summer in Toronto comes and goes so fast that sometimes we feel like we don't have enough time to enjoy all there is that Toronto has to offer. We're on a mission to try as many food and drinks as we can and a couple of weekends ago, we made a visit to Boston Pizza to try out their new summer menu while watching the Blue Jays Game!

Boston Pizza's new summer line up includes an all new "MVB" burger, refreshing Handcrafted Quenchers and a few more tasty dishes! The new menu items are available now and will definitely have something to please for even the pickiest of eaters.

The first thing we tried was the MVB (Most Valuable Burger). We're pretty picky about burgers, as there are so many components to make that perfect burger but Boston Pizza was spot on with the MVB. We liked the fact that it's madae with 100% Canadian beef seasoned perfectly with salt and pepper combined with real Canadian cheese all between a soft and sweet brioche bun. If you're craving a burger, this one is hard to beat.

You can't visit Boston Pizza and not order pizza. We decided to stray away from the classics and go for one from the "International" section, the Rustic Italian. With spicy Italian sausage, red onions, green peppers, fresh diced tomatoes with mozzarella, cheddar and freshly grated parmesan, this pizza is packed with flavour (and a spicy kick)!

Boston's Famous Wings are also an easy choice when you're at Boston Pizza. Choose from breaded, fried or oven roasted and of course some sauces. We like having a variety so we got half & half of Thai Chili and Honey Garlic.

The most unique burger we've eaten this summer has to be this Dessert Burger. This sweet treat at the end of our meal consisted of vanilla ice cream, chocolate ganache, and caramel drizzle "burgered" between two warm buns. Definitely give this a try!

The next time you're at Boston Pizza, don't forget to check out their new summer menu and give one of their burgers a try. The best thing about getting a burger...you don't have to share with anyone like you would with pizza!

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...
