The Journey Behind The Falls is one of those things that never really interested me for the longest time as I didn’t see the appeal of it all, until we first did it a few years back. I recall going to Niagara Falls for years and seeing tourists draped in the disposable ponchos, hair in [...]
The night before heading down to the National Home Show And Canada Blooms in Toronto, we were at our friends place doing a video greeting for his moms upcoming birthday and with laughter in the air and fingers pointed at me… I confessed that I have a passion for gardening and we had to be [...]
It only took 21 years before my first visit to the Toronto Zoo and I’m still kicking myself for having waited this long for my first visit. A couple weeks ago we took the drive down to the Toronto Zoo and what an amazing time we had… but tiring. The last time Caron had been [...]
Good food, fast and cheap.. does it still exist? The answer turns out to be one of the best Vietnamese dining experience in Hamilton. Pho Dau Bo Restaurant on Cannon street east in Hamilton serves up some of the most authentic Vietnamese (and what we think is Thai as well) food in the area and [...]

After the Port Credit Boat Show it was time to refuel so we headed to one of the more popular Caribbean restaurants in Mississauga, Charlie’s Caribbean Cuisine. Tehya and Dan were exhausted from the early morning sun at the boat show and admittedly I was getting a bit hungry as well. The sight of freshly [...]

Last weekend saw us at the annual Port Credit Boat Show, an event I look forward to every summer since we first covered it a couple years back (Port Credit In-Water Boat Show). Yet another beautiful, hot summer’s day so being directly on the water was indeed a treat. Surrounded by some of the most [...]

The Egg And I restaurant in Ancaster Ontario is one of those establishments with a solid footing in the community and though we had driven past the doors on many occasions, we never had the opportunity to dine here until now. Originally we had plans to dine at the Egg And I restaurant on Upper [...]

With lovely skies above, perfect summer temperatures and free parking (always a bonus) , the Burlington Downtown Dining Tour turned out to be a splendid way to spend my Sunday. Caron was unable to make the drive down with me so I was riding solo and a bit apprehensive as I didn’t know anyone here, [...]

After an exhausting hike at Mt Nemo, we headed back to Hamilton for some rest and to refuel, so Nabil’s Middle East Food was our refuge. Marco convinced us that the Chicken Shawarma at this Middle Eastern restaurant was one of the best in the city.And though we’re huge fans of Lulu’s, credit must be [...]

I know you can feel the heat of summer in the air even though it’s early spring and anything winter related is far from your mind, but I came across some pictures from our visit to the Toronto Ski, Snowboard & Travel Show last winter so I thought I’d do this post. The annual Toronto [...]

It was the weekend for America’s Next Top Model Live in Toronto, so after a two hour delay waiting for Tehya to get ‘ready’, we were on our way down the QEW towards Toronto. I’ve heard about the America’s Next Top Model reality show franchise, but to be honest I had no clue what it [...]

With over twenty food options available, how did we go without lunch? Tehya and I met our friend Marco to explore and sample some of the many tasty options at the recent Sew Hungry 2012 on Ottawa Street in Hamilton, but all we had were the Beaver Tails and not the street meat we went [...]

Last summer we had a grand time exploring the sights and sounds of Niagara Falls and we plan to head back down in a couple weeks to get an early start this year. As you can tell from the various features on here, we’re not winter people. So as soon as the mercury rises above [...]

Our good friend Chris Keyes was down at this years Toronto Sportsmen’s Show and was kind enough to cover the event for us as we’ve never ha dthe opportunity to make the trip down the QEW for the event. Running 64 years strong, the Toronto Sportsmen’s Show has recently been setup in the Metro Toronto [...]

I’m a huge fan of eating , cooking and food in general, so I can’t tell you how hyped I was when we had the opportunity to attend a recreational cooking lesson at the Ontario College of Health & Technology just outside Stoney Creek. However that excitement was soon diminished when we were greeted by [...]

What was supposed to be a lovely birthday celebration dinner at Red Lobster in Burlington Ontario, turned out to be a bitter disappointment. And though the manager did take one of the dinners off the bill, we left with dinner regret. Originally we had called to try and make reservations as there would be a [...]

We grew up appreciating the rivalry between the Hamilton Tigers Cats and the Toronto Argos (Argonauts) and we’ve been to several CFL games over the years, but we’ve never had the opportunity to head down the QEW to the Rogers Centre for an Argos game. However this past Fall we did just that. After contacting [...]

I’m a nerd at heart so when we had the opportunity this past summer to go to the Ontario Science Centre, I was giddy as a child on Easter morning. The anticipation of going from floor to floor in search of my own little nuggets of info and the idea that we’ll be seeing ‘cool’ [...]
