Mrs Kim: July 2011

This summer has been full of adventure.

The whole "jam packing the weekends" keeps making it harder to go back to work week after week.

This past weekend we took a 2 day trip with a group of great friends & the Boo.

Left on Saturday morning to Canada & first stop......

Brunch

Sunset Grill

2313 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON -

(416) 482-4229

Fruit Parfait with Granola and honey on the side, absolutely disgusting. Take my word on that.

Next up

Yankees VS Toronto Blue Jays

@ Rogers Stadium

Rogers Centre (formerly known as the SkyDome) is a multi-purpose stadium, in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada, situated next to the CN Tower,

C.C. Sabathia, pitcher for the New York Yankees.

So close yet sooooo far

No doubt it's CC with that tummy of his

So many fans came out to watch the game but man

Canadians were pooing at the mouth for that game,

too bad the Yankees set up to win in the first couple of innings.

That really shut them up.

Defining the Toronto skyline, the tower is the world's tallest building and free standing structure.

A reunion between good friends

Thai Festival

For $4 bucks it was the best bang for your buck

From south to north Paid Thai, Mango Chicken, Beef Tamarind

A Summary of Day 1 so far

Dundas E & Yonge Street

I hate to consistently compare this to NYC but come on.

This Mini time square

Taking the Subway

Tokens

Typical the train looks wider but the seats are smaller.

Got to K-Town a bit tooo late.

I had wanted to go to Morning Glory and Shesido,

but that plan failed when I got there at around 7 pm on a Saturday.

The best customer Service by far she was soooooo sweet. and it's a cute boutique.

We then went to have Din DIN.

I am not going to lie I have no idea where we went.

With so many places to go and never having heard of a single review

of any places it was like the luck of the draw.

The goal was for some Soon-dae-guk and based on the Hubz we struck gold

dolsot bibimbap (돌솥 비빔밥, "dolsot" meaning "stone pot")

"Sundae (Korean pronunciation: [sundɛ], also sometimes spelled soondae) is a Korean dish made generally by boiling or steaming cow or pig's intestines that are stuffed with various ingredients. It is a kind of blood sausage and believed to have been eaten for a long time." Source Wiki

Back to the Subway line

Day 2

What they make here is fresh & very delicious.

Great Food, Horrible Service

Pretty much this was the issue.................. what you would normally think would be the entrance because of the sub corner of the flow of street traffic based on how most people walk in neighborhoods you would think that the entrance would be where the most traffic is locted to get customers in.

Well it's not. I get that they might have to tell people all the time "Please don't go through the kitchen to walk into the market?" But if it's happening 5 times while we were sitting there for about 20 mins, then it's not really the people you should blame it should be the layout of the store in general.

But on the real tip the food was great, fresh orange juice and the croissants were perfect. Oh, there was a mature lady at the counter and her whole persona was off and she was sooo rude.

She would just stand there and stare at us. I was going to take a pic of her since it look like she wanted to pose for the camera. but let me know if I was wrong about saying this and it just so happened they were all on their periods that day.
