Edible Filo Nests (Truffle Butter Filo Nests with Soft-Boiled Eggs) Recipe

By Mijune

This dish is savoury from the truffle tapenade butter, cheese and egg, and the touch of honey gives a little surprise. Honey, truffle and ricotta go hand in hand, and you might think the egg would throw it off, but it almost makes for a sweet and savoury custard-like sauce.

Follow Me Foodie: Greek food, restaurant & ingredient tips in Vancouver, BC

By Mijune

With Greek Day having taken place last weekend on West Broadway, I thought it would be a good idea to write about Greek food this week. Thank goodness my best friend is marrying Costa, but every time I ask where to get certain Greek dishes he always replies “my mom’s house.” Argh.

Sfinaki Taverna Greek Restaurant (Burnaby, BC)

By Mijune

I can assume that their long term success has been due to consistency. Whether it be good or bad it is always the same, which has its pros and cons in itself. The food was actually good and the recipes have been passed down from generations so most dishes were tried, tested and true.

Follow Me Foodie to Toronto!

By Mijune

This Canadian version of the “Big Apple” has so much to offer. A born and raised Torontonian put it very nicely when he said “the people are the same, but what sets Toronto’s neighbourhood’s apart is the food”. Here is a small taste of what to expect from Follow Me Foodie to Toronto!

Casa Pinoy

By Mijune

It’s not my favourite Filipino restaurant based on what I tried, but it was decent, quick, casual and very affordable. There were some execution issues and it was food that you just know they make better at home. It was just very average on a grander scale of things, but people seem to love it.

Chicago, Illinois – The Purple Pig

By Mijune

It’s opened by rock star chefs and I want to recommend everything! Chicago was off to a fantastic start and The Purple Pig hit a home run! The food was solid, the portions were more than fair and the prices were very reasonably for the ambiance, location and overall quality of food.
