Fifteen Minute Doughnut Hole Recipe

Do you ever get hit by a random craving in the middle of the night? The other day it happened to me and it was doughnuts, of course. Delicious, hot, sweet and fluffy doughnuts. I could have left the…

Yamamoto Menzou Udon, Kyoto, Japan

Want to know a secret? I’m horrible at post-processing. Horribly slow that is. I’ll take a million or more photos while on vacation, or even while cooking for the blog, but I’ll only post-process a handful. And while I…

Banh Mi Taco Recipe

These banh mi tacos combine two of my favourite things: banh mi and tacos. Sometimes it not so easy finding fresh Vietnamese baguettes (I’m quite picky about the bread my banh mi is made on) and for some reason,…

Roast Beef Sandwich with Wasabi Mayo Recipe

I feel like sandwiches are one of those polarizing foods. Maybe not so much like foie gras or durian, but there are definitely two camps: sandwich lovers and sandwich take-it-or-leavers. I’m a sandwich lover: I love their portability and…

Bourbon Peach Julep Fizz Recipe

It’s still Peach Week, and it’s Friday so it’s time to get your drink on! I’m not much of a drinker (mostly because I’m a complete lightweight) but I do love a well balanced alcoholic treat. My favourite drinks…

Bourbon Peach French Toast Recipe

It’s peach week! I love peaches and I love french toast, so it was inevitable that I would combine the two. Peaches and French toast go together so perfectly. Add some bourbon sauce in the mix and you have…

What to Cook in November: Thanksgivingspiration

Shrimp and Spring Vegetable Cauliflower Rice Paella Recipe

Give me all the carbs all the time, except when I'm feeling like it's spring and it's time to come out of hibernation. Don't get me wrong, I'll never give …

Honey Garlic Beef Recipe

It's no secret that I'm a honey garlic fan. I almost feel like I can make honey garlic sauce and dip everything into it. My favorite growing up was honey …

Triple Fried Chips Recipe

Most people fall into either the french fry category (thin and crispy) or the chip category (thick and potatoey). I happen to love both. I’m an equal opportunist when it comes to golden, delicious deep-fried potatoes. Thin, thick, crunchy,…

London Burger Bash

I have a mild obsession with burgers. I think that —when executed right—they are a perfect food. Juicy, chargrilled beef; soft, yielding buns; and savoury toppings come together in a glorious explosion of flavours and…

Spicy Carrot and Chicken Pasta Recipe

Maybe I don’t know where to look for spicy food in Europe, or maybe my idea of spicy differs from the palate here, but I’ve noticed that there’s a decided lack of spicy heat on this side of the…

Mushroom and Pea Orzo Risotto Recipe

San Sebastian is where I’ve had the best food I’ve had in all of Spain, maybe even all of Europe. It was delicious, innovative, accessible, and best of all, in small plate format. How can you not love a…
