Ebi Tempura Rice Ball Recipe

If you ever have a chance to visit Japan, you should definitely make it a priority to visit the basements of the department stores. Sounds like a weird item to have on your must-visit list, but trust me, the…

Spinach Potato Soup Recipe

I’ve been wanting a new immersion blender ever since my last one died a sudden death in the middle of blending a pot of soup. It took me two years but I’ve finally brought a new bright green immersion…

Chai Tea Cupcake Recipe

I kind of have a slight addiction to Starbucks. I’ve heard all the arguments against: caffeine isn’t great for you; the drinks are sugar bombs; and you can save hundreds of thousands of dollars if you just don’t go–but…

Pierogi Grilled Cheese Recipe

For food emergencies, I always tend to have one of three instant food items in the house: frozen dumplings, instant noodles and frozen pierogis. Frozen pierogis, homemade or store-bought, are a lifesaver when I’m out of my mind hungry…

Classic Old Fashioned Recipe

Confession: I’m not a big drinker. It’s not that I don’t enjoy alcohol or its effects – I do! It’s just that alcohol usually renders me pretty much useless. I turn a tomato-shade of red and then promptly pass…

Hot Dog Bun Recipe

If you’ve ever had Asian style baked goods, you’ll notice that they taste a bit different from regular-style bakery offerings. Their bread tends to be a little bit sweeter and they’re a lot fluffier and softer. I love buying…

Classic Grilled Cheese Recipe

Tiktok Baked Feta Pasta

Mushroom, Rosemary & Thyme Challah Stuffing

Challah if you hear me! The other day Mike and I passed out at 8 pm for a little while, then woke up in the middle of the night and decided …

Triple Cooked Fries Recipe

I have an obsession with French fries. I love, love, love them. They are a combo of one of my favourite foods (potatoes) and cooking methods (deep-frying). If deep fried foods weren’t so calorific, I’d definitely indulge in them…

Triple Deviled Eggs Recipe

One of my favourite snacks to make is deviled eggs. I didn’t grow up eating deviled eggs (in fact, the first deviled egg I had was at the ripe old age of 20), but something about their cool creaminess…

Crab Rangoon Grilled Cheese Recipe

We didn’t have any crab rangoon on our road trip, but we did see a ton of roadside Chinese restaurants that made me constantly shout out “crab rangoon!” I’m so happy that crab rangoon came into my life. Crab…

Back!

We’re back from our jaunt down the West Coast. Unfortunately I was too busy stuffing my face to take any photos of the food I ate – sometimes I just don’t have the willpower to take photos before digging…
