Set in the middle of the entertainment district on Mercer Street next to Second City, there’s the hotspot rustic Italian restaurant called Buonanotte. With the original location in Montreal, Buonanotte focuses on good Italian cuisine set to a backdrop of an entertaining atmosphere where Fridays and Saturday nights make it a place to be with it’s own club scene. And it was the place to be at their big “UNO” party last week celebrating one year in Toronto. Great food…
It was a night to give recognition and celebrate outstanding achievements in Canadian fashion last Saturday, February 1st, 2014 at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel. I was expecting a bit of a media frenzy and that’s quite what it was on the red carpet with cameras blazing and interviews all around. It wasn’t the worst I’ve seen so it was manageable.

Celebrating their 25th annual Dragon Ball, the Yee Hong Community Wellness Foundation‘s signature fundraising event pulled out all the stops for this commemorative occasion in this Year of the Horse in accordance with the Chinese zodiac. Over 1,000 patrons were in attendance at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (for me it was conveniently taking place in the same North Building as the Interior Design Show last weekend). It’s also very timely to start getting in the mood for Chinese New…
Following in the footsteps of the popular Galaxy Note 3 smartphone, Samsung’s flagship full-size tablet right now is the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition. It’s one of the top tablet contenders to the Apple iPad Air. Featuring an ultra-thin profile, sharp resolution and a fast processor, it’s a great multimedia, all-purpose, go-anywhere tablet. Compared to other smartphones and tablets including the iPad Air, the Note 10.1 does really well at multitasking with the ability to open apps side-by-side. But what…
