I’ve blogged a few times about my visits to Niagara to sample some of Ontario’s best wines.  Niagara is a great day trip or weekend getaway for those in Southwestern Ontario and I always feel lucky to have such a great area so closeby.  I was recently invited by the

On The Town: Berlin Eats

On August 16, 2011 · 4 Comments

My recent European jaunt included a 3-day stint in Berlin.  I went to Berlin knowing pretty much nothing about the city. Sure, I knew there was a wall that came down in the 90s and that they probably had some good sausage and beer but that was about it.  Before the [...]

On The Town: London Food Shopping

On July 26, 2011 · 7 Comments

One of my favourite things to do when I travel is visit the local grocery stores. You can learn a lot about a city/country by what they have going on in their supermarkets. You get an indication of the immigrant communities that influence the food, how health-focused a country is and [...]

On June 24, 2011 · 8 Comments

Here is the conclusion of what I ate in London. Check out Part 1 here!

And on a side note, pretty much the whole trip I had this one line from Wyclef’s “Where My Fugees At?” stuck in my head.  The lyric: Some MCs in the underground, mad at me [...]

On The Town: London – Part 1

On June 22, 2011 · 5 Comments

I recently was fortunate enough to spend five days in London (England, not Ontario).  I visited London about 7 or 8 years ago while studying abroad in France but seeing as I was in broke student mode I didn’t get a chance to do London to its fullest.
