Inspired by our love of food, cooking, and of course, eating. We visit culinary establishments and check out the local grub. Restaurants, diners, dives, carts, delis, trucks, mom and pop shops, hole in the walls, and unique joints are all game. We also love to get down and dirty in the kitchen. We promise to share our experiences and our own tasty creations. And we absolutely, absolutely love to photograph the food we are eating.

street food block party

 


Who:    street food block party
What:   food trucks and various food vendors
Where: evergreen brickworks  
When:  may 5, 2012
Why:    tons of delicious food!!!
Web:    yumtum.ca/







There is only so much Eat Street you can watch before the craving for a real food truck experience sets in.  Thank you Toronto Underground Market for satisfying that craving.  On Saturday we felt it imperative to stand in very long lines and indulge in delicious food truck fare.  Food trucks, food vendors, beer tents, tequila cocktails, wine stands, and of course the environmentally friendly water fountains.  With pack mentality, or the ever successful divide and conquer strategy, we tried to hit them all with our camera firmly in hand.  The unfortunate consequence of a super fun night filled with friends, food, and obligatory drinks is a stack of orphaned photos.  While several items can be placed, others, well, we just have no idea where they came from. All we have ever said is that we are rather peckish, not perfect!

Canadian Prime: Rib Eye Steaks

 

Who:     rather peckish crew
What:    canadian prime: bone in rib eye steaks (aged 60 days)
Where:  rp kitchen  
When:   april 2012
Why:     to break in the new grill
Web:     you are already here




rp was anxious to break in our new kitchen addition.  What better way than to grill some Canadian Prime - bone in rib steaks in the dark. Thank god for flashlights. We used maple briquettes to get the fire started and apple wood chips for extra flavour. All we added was a little olive oil and some salt & pepper. These steaks were aged for 60 days before they hit our grill. This was a rare delicious treat for us.




prepping the steaks: olive oil, s & p
