fil and i traditionally celebrate valentine’s day a night early so tomorrow while you are masturbating yourself to sleep we will be fine-dining at a brand new restaurant. i’ll tell you where after the fact, anyway, don’t get me started on what to wear maybe i will wear a garbage bag or one of the new dresses fil hates the most how romantic. in honour of food and well, eating it, here’s a ton of food pictures from various nite’s out/in not before blogged with some other junk thrown in to break up the monotony. i guess i should go back in order from oldest to newest foodstuffs to go through my system, ha ha? oh and if anyone can tell me what my blog title is in reference to you get a prize. (mom you know this one, no telling)

veggie compost from that place on bloor by organics, i don’t know the name but you can select three dishes with a free soup or salad (get the soup) for like 5.99 and their spring rolls are amazing as is the tofu lasagna, the tomato sauce that comes with makes it. yes i can’t believe i am saying this shit either but whatever, david suzuki says you should try and eat at least one vegetarian meal per day so like if you only eat ONE meal a day i guess this be it (though this container was allison‘s i believe).

mine? i got one more for fil and we all pretty much shared.

brit chocolate beats ‘em all hands down.

the first time we hit the oyster bar with fil’s folks in the distillery, it officially goes by pure spirits. great food and they just rolled out a new menu (little m’s bud is their new sous chef and he is quite a talent) and i believe it’s part of winterlicious, is that happening still?

this is Ossobuco and it will make a delicious reappearance later on in this post, i tried to deter mara from ordering it cos fil’s dad wasn’t that floored by this, hers was way better.

had to put my fingertips in there to not wash this out with flash. i do not remember what it is but it was good, the angel hair pasta and sauce was very complimentary and light.

fil’s salmon did not rank so highly.

i’m wanting to say monk fish for some reason here but i’m probably wrong, feh, the presentation looks pretty.

fil’s stepsister brought back a ton of salmon from tofino that she caught and cured herself AND she’s vegetarian -_- that’s like hamburgers eating people or you know what i mean.

can you guess what this is going to be?

……? it was delicious.

huh what whoops.

looking through my pictures from this nite just now gave me a slight revelation or epiphany, i was in a shitty mood this evening and then looking at all my friend’s faces made me realise what the hell is my problem shut up i have nice people to talk to and spend time with stop complaining, basically, and pictures to show for it.

hi skids.

after taking down my art from grapefruit moon and spending two hours trying on hundreds of dresses sass and i were tired and famished, so was fil but he didn’t try on any dresses. i really wish i showered that day cos from here we went straight to sass’ to get ready and out for that dumb winter bash party.

fil’s quesildilla and not featured is the squeeze bottle of amazing jerk sauce. the food at grapefruit moon is so so so good i regret not having a party there but you know how infuriating it is to get everyone organized for a large sit down dinner with last minute cancellations, sorry, not goin’ there ever.

i’ve had this before, chicken something wrap, it’s tasty.

holy starch fest, i think i was pretty hung all day so i had all day breakfast and made an attempt at health in ordering my eggs poached (normally i’m a scrambled girl) and somewhere in there is my bacon (yes not healthy duh) anyway the thing about GFM is the homefries that come with EVERYTHING you order so if you’re doing a no carb thing you better make it clear not to have any of those guys touch your plate. also when it comes to toast i just eat out (ha) the middle buttered part and chuck away the crusts, i can’t say no to butter.

honey i shrunk the brats.

someone brought out the jager (yeeuck why do people assume it’s a universally enjoyed shot, barf barf barf) so we could endure this eve and then i finally danced in my huge dress and tripped all over myself, it was quite the show anyway point being my hair is totally destroyed.

seriously now, kilgour’s wings are the most underrated wings we have ever come across they must toss them onto the grill after they deep fry ‘em and they’re not puny either. do yourself a favour if you’re a leafs fan go there when the habs play the leafs and get in a fight with a frog please.

lululemon (haha sharpie calls it that accidentally too) actually, sweet lulu, ahh, sweet sweet lulu don’t get me started.

if you’ve never been you simply must, you get to concoct your own dish. my favourite combo is chicken/veg w/ fried rice, crushed black beans sweet basil and garlic it’s so smokey the black bean you have to try it.

i’m getting hungry.

unflattering lighting though so don’t plan any photo shoots unless you bring sunglasses.

i love modern bathrooms. i love places that make an effort it’s always a nice surprise to hit the head and be greeted by more beauty instead of clangy dingy gross stalls.

hi mara! here we are back at pure spirits.

how graceful is this pose jesus am i losing my touch DON’T ANSWER THAT.

’round the world via oysters.

we’re all lesbians at heart.

look who showed it’s mads and my amuse bouche.

this platter was insane. on the left is chicken liver then cinnamon raisons? pickled junk in the middle for the vegetarians, duck prosciutto (!!!!!!!) and short ribs with delicious gravy i forget what that was.

this is flooring me all over just looking at it again.

hi bekki, also not featured to my left was beth, cute girl, tolerant of my big mouth, win-win.

ossobuco again, phenom.

blurry special made risotto for beth.

showing her some pretentious seasonings, v nice, man we were so spoiled this evening.

short ribs with various shrooms and this blow your head off insane garlic whipped mash, show stopper for real.

pear something salad the trailblazers ordered

what a greedy dick i ordered a caesar salad how necessary that move was. sorry, but bacon was mentioned in the description.

i think i ordered short ribs? whatever it was great.

the drunk skunks descend upon the shoe.

how awesome i looked the following morning.

probably drunk still.

then i tried to recreate the delicious of sweet lulu. we bought a jar of black bean stuff, it’s mostly just msg-laden and doesn’t hold a candle to my sweet lulu BUT i mix it up with some sesame oil and sriracha and blammo, still good. there’s little potatoes in there as well.

and because i am the nicest person you will ever come over to hang with i simultaneously made a separate vegetarian batch of pesto onion potatoes for allison and both dishes went with brown rice.

even though it made me cry i soldiered on through.

OMFG

this butcher on kerr street in oakvegas has amazing smoked beef.

ok wow that’s seriously it sorry if you feel like barfing now.

xoxoxo raymikins.

ps. sarah was first to guess what cat fud was in reference to, did you simply google cat fud?

BAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA watch this now can i have that kid?
