Weekend Brunch at Windsor Arms

Goat Roti Chronicles - Windsor Arms Hotel - Toronto - Bloor Street

A lot of places in Toronto think that a plate of fried chunks of potato, greasy bacon, and poached eggs swimming in a pool of hollandaise sauce, fancied up with an orange slice and a strawberry should pass as brunch.

Goat Roti Chronicles - Gentleman's Expo - Unibroue

What’s a blogger to do when he’s invited to an event and he can’t make it? He reaches out to one of his Belly Monsters friends, of course.  The annual Gentlemen’s Expo made it’s way into Toronto three weeks ago and I was invited to attend as part of the media. Since I couldn’t attend, I asked …

Kamayan Feast At Casa Manila

Goat Roti Chronicles - Casa Manila - Mila Nabor-Cuachon

Eating with your hands, sans cutlery. Millions of people around the world do this on a daily basis, but it’s not a common practice here in North America, unless, you visit an ethnic restaurant. One of those restaurants is Casa Manila, where I was given the opportunity to partake in their Kamayan style dinner.

Goat Roti Chronicles - Toben Food By Design - Toben Kochman - Twisted Food By Design

A couple of weeks ago I received an invite to a media preview of Toben’s Kochman’s Toben Food By Design Pop-Up Restaurant. To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect, or for that matter who Chef Toben Kochman was, but after asking my good friend, Google, I found out that Chef Toben isn’t a …
