Northern Smokes

371 Old Kingston Rd Unit 12, Scarborough, ON M1C 1B7 Why does barbecued food, especially smoked barbecue, taste so good? I’m tempted to get a smoker so I can smoke my own meat, but I irrationally think that someone or something will end up eating 

Patty Time

Patty Time

2919 Lawrence Ave E, Scarborough, ON M1P 2S8 Party time!! 🎉 Oops, this post is supposed to be about Patty Time and patties… I think pretty much everyone (in the GTA) has eaten a patty at some point in their lives. When I was a

1145 Morningside Ave #40, Scarborough, ON M1B 0A7 I first heard of World Famous Pizza when someone I know mentioned that their pizza is so good, they drive all the way from Don Mills Rd to Morningside Ave to get it for their team lunches

Main’s Mansion

Main’s Mansion

144 Main St N, Markham, ON L3P 5T3 I don’t typically like going out for breakfast because I feel like most of it is food I can make at home myself for less than half the cost, that is until I had breakfast at Main’s 

Francesca Bakery

Francesca Bakery

2 Invergordon Ave, Scarborough, ON M1S 2Y8 Since I’m not big on sweets, I have probably passed by Francesca Bakery thousands of times (my grandma lives nearby) without a second thought. My husband loves sweets though so he kept mentioning that we should go there 

Poke Guys

Poke Guys

8110 Birchmount Rd #10, Markham, ON L6G 0E3 Maybe I just wasn’t aware of poke before I went to Hawaii in 2014, but poke bowls seem to be pretty popular in the GTA the last few years. Imagine sashimi on top of rice along with
