Chicken Sesame Salad At Nota Bene

It was a warm afternoon and I was seeking something lighter. While I’d usually pass on a chicken sesame salad, the green papaya listed as an ingredient seemed to catch my fancy.

Khao San Road

I finally made a second visit to Khao San Road and eat some favourite dishes from Chef Nuit’s previous restaurant.

Two-Bite Post: Inigo

Brightly-lit and comfortable, this cute space offers reasonably-priced roasted chickens (grain-fed and free-range), as well as “other species” (as listed on their menu). Everything is separately-priced, allowing you to craft your own meal.

Two-Bite Post: The Gabardine

The Gabardine is a polished American bistro with elements that make it more casual: epoxy-lacquered wood tables, white walls, patterned white tin ceiling, mis-matched dishware, and a chalkboard. I stopped in recently and enjoyed some lunch in this bright and airy space.

Fabbrica The Fair

Fabbrica has been getting a lot of flak from foodies regarding its prices. While not the cheapest card on the block, it is, however, one of the few Italian restaurants of note in the area.

A Bite Of Beast

Newly opened for brunch, I thought I’d stop by for a bite at Beast the other day while wandering Queen West. You know, before I had some random ice cream and a late lunch with friends over at The Hoof… Continue Reading →

Hoof Café Crazy

It’s hard to say this, but having gone to the Hoof Café and The Black Hoof twice apiece in the span of a week, I think I’ve officially overdosed on the Hoof goodness for now. That being said, let me… Continue Reading →
