My new fave cocktail - Hendricks Gin & Tonic with cucumber

Saturday, January 29, 2011 18:03 3 Comments

Review by MaxMillion
Somehow Hendricks Gin — a Scottish concoction — has recently crossed my radar, meaning during this past Christmas. I think it’s been around since the 1960s, but further research is required.
This aromatic spirit has supplanted (at least for now) my go-to Gin of choice, the elegant Bombay Sapphire, for the makings [...]

One of my friends thought I was nuts when I suggested we meet at Kang Kang Food Court for a late lunch. He went on to explain to our other friend that he went to Kang Kang a few times back in his college days. Apparently, back then, the place was known for [...]

Geisha House — Très Ordinaire

Friday, September 10, 2010 12:46 13 Comments

Okay, I’ll preface this review with the disclaimer that I was taken out to eat at Geisha House by a visiting European travel/food writer and so, mercifully, I did not pay for this meal.
A free meal at an overrated, passé sushi spot – how bad could it suck?!
Well, it didn’t completely suck, but it certainly [...]

Foundry on Melrose – late night groovy dining

Wednesday, September 1, 2010 13:04 7 Comments

The Yard - A True Gastropub

Thursday, February 4, 2010 23:40 2 Comments

I know it’s been some time since my last post. Truth be told, I haven’t really found a good place to write about lately. Either the food just missed the mark or the food was great but the service left much to be desired. I was starting to wonder if I would [...]
