I've changed my blog's design several times over the years but I hadn't noticed that it's always been in December/January every year. This time, I decided to rewrite everything from the ground up – here are a couple features that I added...

After our last experience at Shoppers Drug Mart this past weekend, we've decided that collecting Shoppers Optimum points is just not worth it. It's too much of a hassle for very little gain. And it's ironic that it's their loyalty card that has driven our business away...

I was exploring our new area with Michelle when we came across Lam Kee BBQ Restaurant tucked away in the corner of a strip mall. I was hoping it would be a good alternative to trekking all the way to Chinatown, but on the other hand, I was hoping not to have such a good temptation within walking distance from home.

I came across Pho Mi Gia Phung by searching the FourSquare and UrbanSpoon apps on my iPhone. A lot of the FourSquare tips spoke highly of the food so it seemed like a safe bet. And when more than one of the tips mentioned a patio, it sounded even more like a great choice on such a hot day.

The very first time I ever had dim sum was at Tremendous Chinese Restaurant in Mississauga almost eight years ago; I've wanted to go back for quite some time, to compare it with the many other dim sum places I've been to since then...

On my way to the Toronto Reference Library, I ran into Lee Chen Asian Diner across the street. I was in the mood for dim sum and hadn't had lunch yet either, so it was an opportune occurrence.

I went with Michelle to Lula Lounge for dinner and a fundraiser. Here are some photos (and a video) I took that night...

I was getting a little tired of the same routine and was feeling up to taking the risk to try a new place out. I was walking up and down Spadina Avenue with Michelle while searching UrbanSpoon on my iPhone and New Sky Restaurant was the highest-rated restaurant close to us.
