Every Meal

I honestly can eat a sandwich for every meal of the day. Today I was craving a good old croissant sandwich. Soo I took some black forest ham, cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, mayo, & fresh cracked peper and went to town on making this AWESOME sandwich. Along side with my sandwich, I had a glass of pomegranate & blueberry juice to get some de-toxins in my body after the weekend. Feels good to eat healthier food than what I was eating… hopefully I can keep up this string of eating healthier!

Stay Hungry!

Jerk Chicken, Corn bread, Rice, & Red Stripe

Tonight was Redstar’s monthly Reggae night which hosts guest DJ’s spinning reggae all night long, Red Stripe specials, AND jerk chicken, cornbread, rice, & empanadas on the menu. Soo I brought Mariel to her first outting to this night and ask her yourself how much she loved it! It’s every first Wednesdays of each month… I WILL See you next month!



Nom'n at Dadeos

Mariel and I went to Dadeos on friday night to do some nom’n… First off we ordered some pints of Alley Cat Chili Lager & Full Moon Lager. For our mains Mariel got the classic Po’Boy with calamari & sweet potato fries and I got the shrimp creole with rice & coleslaw… of course both dishes were bang on as usual! The things I love about going to Dadeos is the atmosphere of feeling like your in New Orleans from the neon lights, music, decor, and of course the staff that make you feel welcomed. These are the reasons why I keep on coming back weekly…

Addiction

I have found a new ADDICTION of two of my favourite things to consume, which is chocolate and coffee. Mariel got me some chocolate from Soma Chocolatemaker dubbed the name “The Epic Latte Milk Chocolate Bar” that is 45% coco dark chocolate that is infused with coffee beans from 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters when she was in Toronto during reading week…this stuff is wayy too good! If you ever wonder what to get me for any occasion, this chocolate is it!

Birthday Dinners

For Kyla’s (1/2 of Bamboo Ballroom) birthday we decided to go to Red Lobster because no one ate there for a really really long time… This dine in reminded me why I only go there for specific reasons…NOT for the food! The only really good thing was the lobster and the biscuits… soo yummy! Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLA and I know you enjoyed your crab / lobster / shrimp dinner 2nite!


The whole crew came out…



The Birthday Girl



Hmm what to get…



DO NOT ORDER THE CRAB CAKES!



Decent meal… way to salty for my liking…

A Day of Art & Food

Tonight Mariel (Mariel Nom’s) and myself went to the Alberta Art Gallery to check out the awesome exhibits, BUT my favourites was obviously Karsh: Image Maker and the incredible sounds from The Murder of Crows by Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller. Karsh ability to create feeling into each portrait he did of many famous people in our time is incredible as well with his talent of lighting his subjects. With the audio presentation of The Murder of Crows was just unreal due to the fact it made you close your eyes and listen to every little sound that was pumping out of the speakers to create an image in your head. Unfortunately I was not able to take in photographs in the Gallery which was understandable SO this means you have to go check it out yourselves…worth going!

Afterwards Mariel and I got REALLY hungry…soo we went to Furusato which is btw the BEST Japanese restaurant in Edmonton! We ordered shrimp/vegetable tempura, assorted sashimi, and of course my favourite the dragon roll bbq eel…soo yummy! Here are the photos from our delicious meal…I know your jealous!

Enjoy!









Meals

For my big meals of the day, I decieded to take some photos of them to share will you guys. First was brunch and I had some Filippino Lagonisa, fried rice with the resedue sauce in the pan, and some tomato slices to clense the palette. For supper my dad wanted to cook some steak which he did PERFECTLY and had a salad on the side with yogurt/dill salad dressing…soo good! Love Lazy Sundays




Noms At Sugarbowl



Last night at Sugarbowl, Mariel (Mariel Noms) & I ate and drank some new beers. It was along time since I ate at Sugarbowl, soo I was excited to see whats new in their menu since last time. We ordered Steamed Soy Beans with Sea Salt, Baked Brie/Basil in Phyllo, and Smoked Paprika/Lime Popcorn. For beverages Mariel got the DDC Rosée d’Hibiscus Wheat Beer and I got the Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout. Both the food & drinks were excellent as always. It’s something about the atmosphere, the people, and the music that makes that place so welcoming…almost homey. If your in Edmonton, do check out this place out!

My lovely date of the night, Mariel.









Po'Boys For Days

If your ever in Edmonton, Alberta; you need to get your ass over to Dadeo’s on Whyte Ave 3 stores down from Foosh. They cook authentic Cajun food that includes: 10+ different Po’ Boys, Oyster dishes, Gumbo soup, Shrimp Creole, and an assortment of Jambalaya’s. My usual is the Philly Cheese Steak Po’Boy with Sweet Potatoes Fries….so good!

Happy Eatings!

10 Course Meal

Lydia's & Rohan's Bi-Monthly Potluck

Sunday marked Lydia’s & Rohan’s bi-monthly potluck which is held at their house that all of our family and friends come to get their grub on. EVERYONE stuffed their faces with all the food and we all had meat sweats & sugar shakes for the entire night. My favourite item of food this time around was Lydia’s chilli that was unreal…sweet corn, spicy, meaty, & soo GOOD! After comatosing from eating for three hour straight…we played some DJ Hero that Justin brought. He was showing off his skills that Hanson (hfourtysixit) filmed without him knowing… FUNNY ASS SHIT! Can not wait till the next one!













Food Cravings

All day I was craving a breakfast sandwich… SOO right after class I decided to make myself one! The sandwich consists of scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and mozzarella cheese that was between two slices of italian sour dough bread. When you crave something, get/make it and enjoy it!

100% Beef

Cravings



Do you ever get those cravings for food that you know you should not be eating, but you do it anyways? Well today was the day for me. I was craving Kraft Dinner mac & cheese, golden Oreos, and Dr. Pepper. Soo right after work I headed down to a grocery store and bought them, cooked, and ate/drank them all!

SOO GOOD!
