It's Father's day - and my dad loves spicy foods. I must have got that gene from him, because there are only a few places in town that make their meals hot enough. The next time he comes downtown, I'll take him to one of these places and see if they get his stamp of approval.

I am an americano junkie - here's a quick roundup of some of my favorite coffee shops in the city
My boyfriend and I have watched way too much Kitchen Nightmares. We often wonder what Gordon Ramsey would think of some of our favourite places. Unlike the disasters you'd find in the kitchen of Massimo's and Sushi on Bloor, this list is the places that I think are doing things right - using quality ingredients and focusing on just doing a few things and making sure they're done right.

I have a million favorite bookstores - all for different reasons.
The best things in life aren't free, but they don't have to break the bank either. There are lots of opportunities for little luxuries in Toronto if you know where to look.
