Toronto and Hamilton 2012

Hey everyone! August was a pretty busy month which is why I didn't blog much but I'm back! 

At the end of August I headed to Hamilton and Toronto, Ontario for my uncle Leslie's wedding. It was awesome! Our first day we went to a great restaurant called Sarcoa.

Slow roasted pork belly sandwich. Mayo, pickled shallots and apple cabbage slaw. Homemade ketchup and fries on the side.

Shrimp po-boy. Fried black tiger shrimp, chipotle mayo, lettuce and red onion. Side caesar. 

The night before the wedding we went to probably one of my favorite restaurants in life called Rapscallion. They only served one kind of beer called Mickeys that had a little riddle on the cap of the beer. If you guessed in five seconds you got your beer for free. Needless to say no one got a free beer. 

 Beet and goat cheese salad. They made little ravioli out of the beet and goat cheese! How cute!

In Toronto my uncle Chris brought me to this great bar in Kensington Market called Thirsty and Miserable. I had a cool beer called Kwok that came in a neat glass that needed it's own wooden older. They had a GREAT selection of beer and it was nice and small which is what I'm into. 

We also decided to make dinner at my uncles one night. BBQ chicken(I forget what we put on it but it was spicy)corn on the cob and beat and goat cheese salad(my fav).

Dinner!

Last but not least was probably one of my favorite places I've been in Toronto. Don Don Izakaya.

When you walk in they announce you and hit the taiko drum twice and the kitchen staff greets you.

There were many more places I went but I didn't get any pictures. I guess I'll just have to go again really really soon!

What are you favorite places to eat at in Toronto?
