Back in Rotterdam, we had dinner at a cool steak restaurant. But after all the food we had at the ESA the previous days, I had to choose salmon :D The fish was also good, I must say it was huge!!!! We had a good time with the CEMSies, also talking about our business plans that we had to prepare...... [view]

Chocolate cake. Need I say more. Personally, chocolate in its many forms is almost new to me in that I obviously like chocolate but I could never understand when people talk about being addicted. I have since discovered that like all good habits, I just wasn’t practicing hard enough....... [view]

As a full time student amongst other things, coffee is my cocaine. I try not to abuse and I do have periods where I’m ‘clean’ for weeks but if a job needs to get done, I turn to The Bean. As such I have years of extensive experience with coffee but let's get the bad news...... [view]

In honour of my first visit to the Lusitoland festival, the subject today is an institution in its own right; the Prego roll. Made with fresh Portuguese rolls, a spicy creamy sauce and steak, this perennial morsel is hard to get wrong but when done right, is an unfailing delight. Although...... [view]

I like to think that I have a very good understanding of dining in this city. Where to eat when you feel like sushi, where you should go for a business meeting, where you should take your discerning parents when they are in town... 2 years ago, it was never so. I was just your average...... [view]

A friend of mine took me to the Tinto Coffee House yesterday. Being a huge fan of anything that comes wrapped in a tortilla, I loved it! It has a great seating area - very chill and relaxed, its offering of free internet access drawing quite a collection of laptop users - and serves local,...... [view]

Started a dinner club with friends and had our first "meeting" last night at Dhaba Restaurant (309 King St. West, Toronto). I am generally skeptical of that strip of King St. - thinking of it much as I think of the Latin Quarter in Paris, a tourist trap - but the restaurant is, as NOW...... [view]
