6th Street Pub and Grill

I recently met some friends for a Wendy-ful evening at the 6th Street Pub and Grill, 4923 Dundas Street West in Toronto.  It was a good choice: From Restaurant Take-over to a growing business, 6th Street Pub and Grill is a success story. I remember when this pub was under another name.  It was dark and dingy.  Now, […]

Stick the kettle on, I’m gasping.

Stick the kettle on, I’m gasping. A kick off your shoes and lasso your shopping bags to the kitchen counter, end-of-a-hard-day’s-slog catchphrase, at least in the green and pleasant land where I come from. But who, in this suffocating swathe of summer – not that I’m protesting the sun we clapped our hands in prayer […]
