Uno Mas

It appears my blog has now become a daily recollection and recording of my adventures. iExplore. iSee. iExperience. iWrite. uRead. sWeet.

I've been expanding my cultural cuisine horizon as of late, and me and my special opted for Arabic food. Naturally, there had to be a sideorder of pita bread.


With a sideorder for the sideorder of hummus.


And for the main course? Shawarma on a plate.



You really should check out this restaurant. It is located at Dundas and Yonge, just south of Dundas Sqaure. It's called, Paramount. Check it out.

Get Up and Eat!

Not sure what to do with your Thursday afternoon? Well, here are some ideas:

Travel down to Little Italy on College Street. Walk around, take it all in. The desserts looks sumptuous, the smells are divine. The boutiques are full of wonderful artistic pieces. Really, you gotta check it out.

Once you've arrived on College, step into Vivoli's, a small Italian restaurant with great sidewalk and rooftop patios (and exquisite Sangria). Order a Margherita. Why? Just trust me on this one.


You're going to want to order that Sangria now, c'mon, it's hot out; you know you want something refreshing. This is the picture in the dictionary beside the definition of refreshing. You'll even find some fresh blueberries, raspberries and diced strawberries floating around in there.



Then you're going to want to take some pictures of your special person. Or not. That's optional. But I did.

Once you're finished your delightful shenanigans, pay off that bill and head on out to find the best gelato and desserts at the Sicilian Cafe! Your tastebuds will have never had it better. Wow.


And to top off the afternoon, go look for those benches (that aren't benches because they're not made of wood) but they're benches because they look like benches and you can lie down on them like you can on a bench...


Mangiare bene!!



What is Twitter?


Where did Facebook go? How often do you use Facebook to contact people these days? Is it starting to follow in Myspace's footsteps? Statistically and financially no, however in my group of friends it would appear that Twitter trumps Facebook any day.

It's simple. Clever. If you can't say what you want to say in 140 characters, don't say anything at all. Only say what's absolutely necessary. Unlike Facebook, where anything goes. Twitter is more contained in that sense, however it does not stop those that use the social network to voice their opinion loud and clear...and in 140 characters.

I Believe a "Thank You" is in Order

When's the last time you stopped, took a look around and thanked God for everything you see, everything you touch, everything you have. In our crazy, hectic lives it's not often we step outside the bubble we call our life and say 'thanks'. But we should, we really should.


What are you thankful for?





I know what I am thankful for... Thank You.
