My friends crazyC and crazyPyxo have been telling me about the restaurant that they went to during their wild Montreal bachelor party weekend, Le Bleu Raisin, so I decided to bring my coworkers there last night since we haven’t had French food for a while.  It was a bring your own wine place, so we [...]

Enjoying afternoon tea is one of my favourite things to do in life, and it is especially enjoyable if you are taking  a break from a long day of shopping.  That’s what I would typically do when I’m in Hong Kong.  Some of my university roommates were visiting Toronto from Hong Kong and Scotland earlier [...]
