Lambo’s Deli in Toronto has some of the biggest, tastiest, thick sandwiches I have ever had! I found them randomly when I was looking for a quick lunch spot near the office while I was working in Toronto and this spot popped up and I am SO glad it did. Their menu is simple, butContinue reading “Lambo’s”

I love a filling sandwich, but I hate paying $10 for a sandwich…because in this economy who can afford that?! And sandwiches are too easy to make at home for me to justify eating out. Another great thing about sandwiches is you can pretty much throw anything on there and it most likely will tasteContinue reading “Easy Loaded Sandwich”

Both shops are fairly small, so you mayContinue reading “Ikkousha Ramen”

Looking for sushi and super fresh sashimi? Check out Hana Don, Toronto’s premium sushi and donburi restaurant. The inside is pretty small, with limited seating so it is best to make a reservation so you don’t miss out. My husband and I found this spot just down from our hotel when we wanted something deliciousContinue reading “Hana Don”

Tim Hortons is the Canadian equivalent of Dunkin Donuts and people rave about it. Tim Hortons actually used to have locations across the US, especially in areas that border Canada, but since the rise of Starbucks and Dunkin, non-competes now exist and you’ll only find them concentrated in the Northeast. While I am not theContinue reading “Tim Hortons”

If you go to Canada and don’t get poutine then did you even go? Smoke’s is a shop that is dedicated to all things poutine and while they do have a few other items on their menu, their main focus is poutine. They have traditional poutine and then all sorts of crazy combinations that areContinue reading “Smoke’s”

I LOVE Turkish food, but it isn’t something we have very much of in the US and definitely not in Oklahoma where I am currently based.

The ingredients are usually simple, yet incredibleContinue reading “Sultan Grill House”
