Just in….The World’s 50 Best Restaurants – 2013  The list just came out for the world’s best restaurants. I have been following this list for some time now. Unfortunately when El Bulli took the number spot, I had promised myself that one day I would be spoiled by Adria Ferran’s creations…little did I know that they would soon close their doors. […]

A steak is being cooked on a grill with flames.

Just saying… What does it say about me when I’ve just enjoyed a thoroughly good meal and then as soon as i get a whiff of some other mouth watering delectable, be it the smouldering smoky smell of a flame broiled steak or a spicy Italian sausage being flipped showcasing its beautiful grill marks…I just can’t resist […]

The love of food cannot be contained…I’ve attached this video that a friend of mine showed me a while back (thanks Scott). It’s by far one the best videos to showcase the love of food that this one particular guy has for his meal…which just so happens to be a nice greasy ass burger. This is when I wish […]

A golden lamp with smoke coming out of it.

With the popular trend of restaurants having ever so changing menus – taking advantage of the seasonal vegetables being harvested, I at times have issues with this. Let me explain before I start offending some vegetable lovers out there. At the rate that I frequent restaurants, I do my best to order a different meal at every chance I get but […]

Sushi on a wooden cutting board.

Sushi Umi Address: 1311 Wellington St. West Ottawa, ONT With all the ‘all you can eat’ sushi buffets that are sprouting up in the city, the true art of sushi making has become almost nonexistent…that was until Sushi Umi spoiled its patrons with their pieces of art. Located in the heart of Westboro, I have […]

Baccara Address: Casino du Lac Leamy 1 Boulevard du Casino, Gatineau, QC Situated on the top floor of the Lac Leamy Casino in Hull, this high end French cuisine restaurant stays true to its CAA-AAA 5 diamond distinction since 2001.

AlliumAddress: 87 Holland Ave, Ottawa, ONT This rather hip and modern restaurant has gained lots of attention over the past few years. Situated on Holland Avenue and being so close the government landscape of Tunney’s Pasture, this restaurant has become a rather social busy hub especially during the lunch time rush. Patrons are spoiled at Allium by […]

A man in a suit holding two plates with food on them.

Now here’s one of my biggest pet peeves when dining in restaurants and I unfortunately see at numerous restaurants.  While I’m trying to enjoy my meal,  there is nothing more insulting to me than to have a server pick up the plate of the person with whom I’m having a meal with who has finished […]

A bathroom with two sinks and a mirror.

POWDERING THE NOSE No, I’m not talking about the 1980’s lingo of enjoying some ‘nose candy’ when referring to powdering the nose. I’m referring to the one place where it can make or break an eating experience…the bathroom. As more and more restaurants are show casing their open concept kitchens it gives the patrons a […]
