Sushi Box

May 18, 2018

Chicken katsu box

They make the fried chicken to order which is good, but the side dishes were a little bland.

November 2, 2016

My old office used to order Sushi Box in for lunch every so often. 

Chicken Teriyaki bento box

A rather simple meal, but quite filling considering the portion size above. The shop is owned by a very nice Korean family that also give out miso soup with every meal. (I liked the chap chae noodles the best out of my lunch box). 

Fast Fresh Foods

I love this place for quick delicious sandwiches. I especially love their spreads - I get one side with sundried tomato spread and the other with roasted red pepper.

Rosemary foccacia with chicken, tomato and havarti and a salad with balsamic (which is really tasty)

It's my go-to combo at Fast Fresh Foods - it's tried, true and delicious. I also really enjoy the fact that they press and toast your sandwich.

Arctic Bites

Taro with a Twist - Taro coconut ice cream with lychee jelly and condensed milk

It looks really cool, but it was overpowered by the lychee jelly.

Thai Me Up - Thai Milk Tea ice cream with Hello Pandas

The Thai milk ice cream had a much stronger flavour and it was a lot better. 

Overall: Rolled ice cream looks really cool, but I prefer the normal ice cream or gelato.

Silk Road Kabob House

Spring Cherry Blossoms in Toronto

Silk Road Kabob House recently opened and it's been making the area on Bay street between College and Gerrard smell amazing.

Barg-Kofta Combo plate $14

The food is also REALLY good - exactly what you would expect from the smell: spices and grilled meats. The prices are a little expensive but the portion size makes up for it. It's definitely worth multiple visits (which explains the lineups here).

Deer Garden

Good Hong Kong Milk Tea

Choose your soup base, type of noodles and two toppings - they're known for their fish soup

Tomato & pumpkin soup, pork and fish filet up top. Original fish broth and two types of beef at the bottom.

The tomato and pumpkin soup was pretty good. I would definitely try another base next time. It's a little expensive for a noodle soup though for $13.50.

Beiruti burger and kobideh with fries

Baklava mix

Fattoush Salad
The salad was okay, I like Paramount's Fattoush salad more. 

Beiruti Burger with fries, coleslaw, tomato and mayo

Inside the burger is kefta meat, tomato, lettuce and onions with mayonaise. 

Chicken Shawarma wrap and fries

Fish and Chips

Big piece of fried fish and fries.

Pistachio mousse cake

Really pretty colour and light airy mousse, however, there wasn't a lot of pistachio flavour.

The pictures on the Beiruti Cafe website looked really amazing, so I decided to try it out.

 Loved the display! You could see all these delicious desserts and sandwiches. 

Tea! 

Kefta sandwich and chicken shawarma platter

The food was beautifully presented and good, but I felt like the portion sizes were a little tiny compared to other Middle Eastern restaurants/takeout places. This place is definitely more upscale. 

Hazelnut Gelato 

They were offering a gelato promotion  - 1 scoop for $2 and the hazelnut gelato was pretty good.
