     Or come find me and I'll boost you in. Lo Pan - I stumbled into Lo Pan - the bar for Dailo down the street from Sidecar. I had the big mac bao, the spring roll with the smoked meat and mate of mine had another big mac bao and the beef short rib. He loved the beef ribs. Spring rolls were...

     Swatow? Paul? Boots n bourbon? I was a supporter of things on the east end. Bero, Bistro 896, Swirl, except they all closed. Are Kingyo or zakkushi east? Yes. I believe it is a bit down the street from Balzac's.

     I haven't been going enough lately to justify a thread by itself. After the four figures spent at For Your Eyes Only I stopped. That's the month I spend avoiding restaurants that feature it. Eating crème brulee created in a Toronto factory somewhere served by every other participating...

     A few years ago I went to a restaurant called Culinaria - it's staffed by students of a chef school. It's the usual white table cloth European style fare. Still close enough for you I hope. The airport district is unfortunately better known for the high mileage strip clubs.

    In truth, there aren't any. There's a half decent Chinese restaurant hiding in a nearby Doubletree airport hotel - Grand Chinese Cuisine. If you're willing to venture even a little farther, there are other options if Chinese is not your favourite.

    Lucien is closed now. There is an Olde town oyster bar in its place. Rumour on the restaurant circuit they are just serving out their lease. Que supper club opened and closed in six weeks. I wonder how much money those owners sunk in that disaster.

    Four time consecutive champion. One more and he matches the other German?

    My father didn't want anywhere too posh so I took them to Tundra since it was closest to Roy Thomson not called Note Bene. The menu looked nice but the entrees were not. Even after the renovation, the service is a hit or miss - I'm the only one ordering wine and you forgot my wine order out of...

    Speaking of food poisoning I was doing oysters and raw salmon at The Chase Fish & Oyster downstairs. It's either that or the dodgy shrimp cocktail I had at Far Niente. Anyway, I'm all better now. I finally made it to Guu Izakaya with a mate of mine. He is a Japanese-phile as in he can...

    Downton Abbey

    There is one plus to waiting for the PBS airing. You get to see the Christmas special in sequence right after the last episode whereas in the UK there is a wait of a month before you get the last tidbit. So does that mean we are not discussing the show until PBS or I must put spoiler tags over...

    Series 4 starts September 22 at 9:00 PM GMT! Pictures and Trailer O'Brien is gone. And somehow that maid who got fired is back.

    I was at The Saint for brunch the other day. We had the devilled eggs (every table has the devilled eggs), duck scramble and duck confit benedict. Barely any duck in the duck scramble but otherwise very filling. People keep moaning about the service at this place and to be honest it wasn't...

    I tried more ramen at Ryu's Noodles. This place used to be an Indian restaurant on Baldwin. The interior is quite sparse but they do offer pints of Sapporo. Unfortunately my ramen came and I was mid way through it before the beer showed up. I do think they don't have air conditioning. My...

    I forget whether it was when he and Hamilton were teammates or the year after he left. But it involved him and Hamilton. Also the Singapore one. Anyway, I just never assumed he was virtuous. But then who was? (Schumacher!)

    I forgot to say I also went to Woods for lunch. I had the spaghetti and meatballs and she had the mackerel special. The fish was okay. My pasta was just the right sized portion but I didn't find it divine like the reviews say. The rest of the choices on the menu were quite pedestrian including...

    I went to Patria on Tuesday night. I had the potato and egg that people kept talking about. For something so simple it was quite tasty. I had the 36 month old ham from Spain. Worth trying once for thirty dollars. Then I had the seafood paella. That was pretty good. If you are hungry it does not...
