Ossington

This year I finally made it to Foxley Bistro & Bar on Ossington. I put it on my Restaurant Must-Eat List at the beginning of 2010, and I’m happy to report it’s finally time to cross it off. There was plenty of hype surrounding my visit since I’d heard rave reviews about their legendary ribs which several people insisted I must order.

Did Foxley and their ribs live up to my expectations? Read on to find out.

While it’s nice to have variety on a menu, sometimes I welcome limited choice, which is why I’m a fan of Prix Fixe. Of course, it has to be at a good restaurant and preferably not during one of those ‘licious events. A perfect example of one I enjoy is Pizza Libretto (221 Ossington Ave.) and their great three-course fixed-price lunch menu that’s only $15.

Read on to find out exactly what you can get in the three courses.

UPDATE: We are sad to report that OddFellows closed down on February 1, 2011. RIP Taco Hell.

Welcome to Taco Hell. Every Sunday at OddFellows (936 Queen St. W.) the young, hip and hungry gather for this aptly named dinner event to nosh on all-you-can-eat tacos. It’s $15 per person and sitting along their communal table or out on the side patio is a great alternative to a traditional Sunday night dinner. Based on my first experience, the “hell” part likely refers to the way you feel after distending your stomach way past its normal capacity. I literally thought I was going to have a taco baby.

What do you get for 15 bucks? Read on and you’ll forever forsake Taco Bell.

A steaming bowl of Vietnamese Pho is one of my favourite dishes of all time. The mix of hot broth, slurpy rice noodles, crunchy bean sprouts, sharp raw scallions and succulent beef is the perfect combination for my taste buds.

Where’s my go-to pho spot? And what’s holding it back from being one of the city’s best? Read on fo’ mo’ pho.
