The Toronto Food and Drink Market is originally known as the Good Food and Drink Festival. This event was a lot smaller than I expected. There were a few vendors and food trucks, with a couple of new businesses. Cooking classes with chefs were available for those who were interested as well. There were plenty of samples for attendees and everyone got to take home a bag full of yummy goodies.

Review

One of my friends started working by Bloor station and I met up with her for lunch. We decided to try out Oja nearby, a Korean and Japanese restaurant with plenty of options. I was surprised with how cheap everything was! I got the Tempura Bento box and it was incredibly filling. Mainly because I had to finish everything less than an hour. It may not look much but if you have limited time to eat, you will get bloated fast!

I will definitely come back here again for a cheap lunch. There are a lot of options and it's at a good location.

Review

Bengal Curry House is a small family owned restaurant in Wynnum. I arrived with my cousin and her children, eager to have some Indian food. I am a huge fan of Indian food but I don't get to eat it as often as I'd like.

I noticed while we were there, there was only one girl taking care of everything. She was the hostess, server, and busser! Luckily, the restaurant wasn't so busy, but I thought they could at least hired one other person. I wouldn't be surprised if she helped out in the kitchen as well.

My cousin ordered for us some naan bread and three different kind of curries with lamb and chicken. I obsessed over one of the curries, which I unfortunately do not recall which. Menu items were approximately $15-20 AUD. Overall, it was a good Indian restaurant.
