Personal Pizza at Blaze Pizza

You get to make your own pizza here for really cheap - $10. It was pretty good for the price and amount of toppings but the crust was way too thin and soft for my liking.

Smoked salmon salad, mushroom croissant and cotton candy coffee at Light Cafe This is a cute cafe with a really nice ambience for hanging out and having a casual dinner. The croissant was quite delicious. Buttery flavour with a great portion of mushrooms. I definitely would not recommend the salad though - not much in it and the salmon was much too salty.

Peking duck pizza at Levetto Pretty good place for quick italian. I like how the pizza here is not as heavy, with a much lighter and crispier texture.

Vegan Cobb salad at Cheesecake Factory This salad was amazing. It had asparagus, avocado, chick peas and beets - all of my favourite things! Plus it was less than $11 for a huge portion. We had the red velvet, strawberry and key lime cheesecake for dessert. Red velvet was definitely my favourite.

Pork belly ramen at Totto Ramen (NYC) Got lucky with a five minute wait here and was so happy to finally try it! Did not disappoint. The broth was rich and creamy but not too salty. Egg was cooked perfectly as well.

Ribs and waffle fries at Smoque 'n Bones The food here was good but not amazing in my opinion. My favorites were the ribs and potato salad, although the ribs were too charred for my liking. Stockyards is still my favorite place for BBQ in Toronto.

Salmon cream udon and curry udon with shrimp tempura at Menami I don't usually like udon but this place puts a twist on it. Instead of soup noodle they make udon with creamy sauces and the result is a rich meal that doesn't feel too heavy. The salmon cream was really good, just the right amount of sauce with a piece of salmon that was not dry at all.

Seared eel and scallop roll, red dragon roll and dynamite roll at Kintako

Randomly came here based on Yelp reviews and loved it! The price was extremely reasonable ($30 per person for three rolls and a few other dishes) and the food was delicious. The only bad thing to note was that the fried chicken was not crispy at all.

Lamb ribs, beets, dumplings and crispy qatayef at Byblos I've been wanting to try this place for a while now, but unfortunately was quite disappointed. The food came out very slowly and our server mixed up our order so one of the dishes we wanted was never put in. Some of the dishes (beets and rice) were very good. The dumplings were very disappointing. Everyone recommended them but they were so tiny and had no flavour.

Tuna kinilaw, pork belly, beef cheek, chicken adobo and purple yam flan at Lamesa I was pleasantly surprised with how good the food was here. Wasn't sure what to expect as I'd never had Filipino food before, but everything was cooked perfectly. The beef cheek was the best, extremely tender. The flan for dessert was also amazing, the flavour was really unique. Sweet but not overpowering with a very soft melt in your mouth texture.

Brussels sprouts and khao soi at Rickshaw Bar The food here is very average and expensive with tiny portions. There was also a drink on the menu they called the 'red rickshaw' which was literally just soho, vodka and cranberry juice but was priced $14.

BBQ pork bun and sweet pastry dessert at Yu Seafood

This is definitely not your average dim sum restaurant. Fancy decor and even fancier dishes. One of my favorites was the pork bun - flaky bun on the outside and flavourful tender pork on the inside.

Seafood platter at Chase The best part of this was the sashimi. So. Buttery. And fresh. The rest was just alright. It was also a bit overpriced for the quantity.

Milk tea and xiao long bao at The Bao (NYC) First time I enjoyed xiao long bao! Everything else was pretty good too. We had the pigs feet, eggplant and dim sum (this was meh).

Beef carpaccio, tuna tartare, aburi sashimi, aburi scallops, matcha molten lava cake, Fuji Apple tartin at Miku Presentation here is on point. My favorites were the aburi sashimi (especially the hamachi), aburi salmon oshi (box sushi with double layer of salmon, not pictured) and the Fuji Apple dessert. Ambience is also very nice for a fancier dinner without the snob factor.
