I feel as though I should apologize for the abundance of food content as of late here on my blog, if anyone is finding it irritating. I try to write about things that are relevant to my own life, and lately, eating out has been occurring more often than not. It isn’t something I’m particularly … More What’s your go-to Bar Burrito order?
Going out to eat is something I very much enjoy, yet don’t do as often as I might like. I think most people would agree with me on this; not having to cook your own food is always a pleasure, and even more so when said food is delicious. I went for dinner a few … More Have you been to Sociable Kitchen and Tavern?
When it comes to restaurants, there doesn’t seem to be a shortage of roadhouses. I am not complaining about this, because roadhouses almost always offer familiar favourites and cold drinks, and that’s just about all I require in the context of eating out. I know a few people who tend to pull their noses up … More Here’s your sign to visit Kelseys Original Roadhouse
As much as my husband and I enjoy The Keg, we try not to frequent it too often because it is on the pricier side. That being said, we promised each other back in May that we would go out for dinner to celebrate our birthdays – seeing as we are now almost entering July, … More What’s your go-to order from The Keg?
I suspect most people who possess taste buds have been to Montana’s at least once in their lives. I don’t think it is an exclusively Canadian restaurant chain, but, in the instance it is, I do offer my sincerest apologies to my American neighbours; without sounding too harsh, you’re missing out. I don’t go to … More What is your go-to Montana’s order?
This past Sunday, Blaine and I were trying to determine where to go for dinner. We came to the realization that we hadn’t been for dinner together in quite a while and, therefore, should arguably do so again; we narrowed our options down and eventually settled on a restaurant we haven’t enjoyed for a little … More Have you been to Symposium in Brantford?
To my knowledge, the presence of Denny’s restaurant chains here in Canada is lull when compared to its presence in the U.S. The first and only Denny’s I ever went to, up until quite recently, was in Buffalo, New York, and that was probably over ten years ago. I’m not exactly sure when it opened, … More When was the last time you went to Denny’s?
This past Sunday, my parents graciously took Blaine and me out for a lovely dinner.

I’ve grown to miss it quite a bit since moving out, so any opportunity I have to go … More Have you been to Crazy Canuck Smokehouse in Brantford?
I don’t visit the Keg too often – normally only for special occasions and celebrations, not so much for casual dining.

Weirdly, I’m … More Here’s how to make The Keg’s mashed potatoes at home

I was first introduced to Lebanese cuisine when I wasn’t yet a teenager. The circumstances surrounding my introduction to this fabulous cuisine weren’t ideal; my mom was going for chemotherapy treatments and was continually encountering issues with parking at the hospital. One day, she went into a Lebanese restaurant that was within close vicinity of … More Here’s how to make a wicked Tabbouleh salad
When it comes to pizza, my husband is a bit of a critic. I honestly have no doubt in my mind that, if he were ever faced with a situation in which he was required to give his life for a solid slab, he would; this man could eat pizza three meals a day for … More Here’s why Robby’s Pizza and Wings should be your go-to pizza spot
Never did I think I would come across a food establishment on Christmas day to review, but I suppose stranger things have happened.

We were visiting Blaine’s parents and left later than we anticipated, and because … More Have you tried Tahini’s in Brantford?
This past June marked mine and Blaine’s first wedding anniversary. We agreed, back in June, that we would go out and enjoy a lovely dinner to celebrate; fast-forward to present-day September, almost October, and we still haven’t gotten around to commemorating our first wedding anniversary. That is, until this past weekend. We agreed that our … More Have you been to Fume RestoBar?
A little while ago, my parents went to a wedding to celebrate the marriage of longtime friends.

This past Saturday, Blaine and I were trying to determine a place to visit to grab some dinner. We didn’t really want to drive into Brantford, nor did we want to hit up a spot we go to regularly.

This past weekend, my family and I ordered takeout from Domino’s Pizza. My sister and I have had Domino’s ourselves a few times, but my parents had never eaten anything from Domino’s before, and after a rather hectic weekend, we figured it would be a good choice for a simple and fuss-free dinner. I was … More Is Domino’s Pizza worth the hype?
A few night ago, my sister and I met up with our cousins for dinner in Hamilton, Ontario. We often meet in Hamilton because it’s sort of the halfway point between us and them, and also because Hamilton has a far better selection of restaurants than Brantford does. My cousin picked out a place called … More Have you been to Electric Diner?
