Cookies by Siuy first caught my eyes when I was browsing Island East Market (a local food market that promotes local produce and artisanal food) Facebook Page a few weeks ago.

City Guide: Toronto
As many of you might have noticed, I took a huge break from blogging at Where the Sweet Things since last November. I spent the time focusing more on myself and after being away from here for a few months, I’m pleased to say that I’m finally back! I’m taking a break from Montreal and […]
Little Getaway.
I just had a little getaway to Toronto last weekend and I spent most of the time going on food hunts! Here’s a preview of all the places I went to over the weekend :) from left to right 1. Arrived at Toronto at 6:20 am. I felt like my neck was going to snap […]

Traditional Taiwanese breakfast usually include a bowl of soy milk and all sorts of chinese pastries. 阜杭豆漿 is a very popular breakfast spot for locals and it’s known for their homemade clay oven rolls.

6 Back to School Delights.
It’s that time of the year again. It’s the last day of summer and no one are really ready for school yet. For all the foodies out there, I came up with a list of food and drink to kick off the start of the year. For quick lunch: Cherry Tomato Vinaigrette and Gorgonzola Bruschetta […]
