Miss Cora`s Kitchen

Pass by Miss Cora`s Kitchen so many times at Kensington Market but we are either too full or it`s sold out (like here) of the Butterscotch Bacon Cookie that I wanted to try....

This time around, I finally get to eat it (^_^)

Huge Butterscotch Bacon Cookie...yummmmmmmm

This time we bought two, one for each so no fighting over the yummy goodness

It was a chewy cookie with bits of bacon and you can definitely taste the bacon throughout the butterscotch cookie which sort of balance the sweetness

Drug Store Browsing ;)

Windsor Arms : Prime

I got a WagJag deal, $69 Prix Fixe menu for 2 at Windsor Arm's Prime Steakhouse which seems to be pretty good deal with choice of 10oz steak as entree.... service was excellent but the food was a disappointment :(

Arriving on a Friday night at around 8:30 and

it was pretty empty except of 2-3 tables and I started to panic



Their dips was the best thing of the night, love all 3 flavors: Tomato, Olive and Hummus

We had almost 2 basket of bread with it between just the 2 of us =P



Pink Jacket

You should be getting tired of me wearing my black faux leather jacket all the time, a few example like here, here, here, here and so many more... so I bought a pink one for this spring (^_^)

But let's be frank here, although this is cute and all, I think we have to agree that the black one is more easy to match and basically more me so you'll probably see it many more times =P

The bow and the pink is a bit overly girly for me, so to add abit od edge I added an animal print scarve.... what do you thing, good pairing? Any oher suggestion to toughten up an outfit?

Outfit Details:

Top, Belt & Scarve  -H&M; Faux Leather Jacket - ZARA; Skirt & Boots - UO;

Bag - Danier



Scarpetta

I went to Scarpetta (Twitter: @ScarpettaTO) about 2 year ago for my birthday dinner (see my post here) and I was disappointed. A few months ago there's a new Chef de Cuisine in charge and knowing I had a bad experience, Chef Michael Hunter (@Chef_Hunter) ask me to give it another chance promising to make it up to me...

.... and he definetly did (^_^)

The bread basket didn't change much, with an assortment and I like all of it

(order a bottle of wine as well but didn't get to take a picture and I totally forgot what we had)

The famous Stromboli, just as good as I remember

Sorry my pictures here doesn't really do the dishes justise since our table didn't have any decent lighting but only a candle :(



Duck Liver Pate

Complimentary amuse bouche, so yummy smooth and love the tartness from the pickled on top, it just sort of wake up your palate

Yellowtail $18

~ Olio de Zenzero & Pickled Red Onion

It was fresh with a suble flavor from the ginger oil and another pop of flavor from the red onion

Like!!!

 

Hopgood's Foodliner

Hopgood as in Geoff Hopgood, ex Hoof Cafe, so of course Foodliner has been on my list since it first open. The menu is a homage to his eastern Canadian NOva Scotia roots giving a playful twist to clasics like donairs and maritime poutine. The menu is short and simple which I love, and oh they take reservation (^_^)

There's 2 section, at the front where the bar is located is bright and welcoming whereas the back which is a bit darker but more intimate.

Pass by the kitchen on your way back

At the back section, it much darker which is horrible for picture taking, so if you are like me make sure to mention you would prefer a table at the front at time of reservation.

Look at the shelf full of Triscuit & Carnation :)

Orange Polka Dots

As some of you may know already, Ben aka my bf, aka my food partner, aka my photographer is off on a Business trip for 5 weeks (>_<) It's only been a few days and I miss him a lot already and during this time I decided to try to stay home so that my bank account could recuperate a bit from all the dinning out and frankly maybe loose a tiny bit of weight.... I'm starting to think a food and fashion blog shouldn't mix, I probably gain more weight than I should and the outfits are suffering :(

So this month, I'll try to post all the post that have been backlogged =P

I found this OOTD from last year that I've never posted... it's a very vintagy look, it's something that I imagine my mum would wear when she was younger (^_^)
