The Industry



Dr. Castle and I are quite excited that a new food place opened in my neighborhood, the INDUSTRY. He is hoping for a nice bar and I am looking for good eats. We tried it out the other day. Dr. Castle was really happy with the beer selection, one of his favorite was on tap, Ale Smith. He ordered the burger, which was tasty and a nice basic burger. As for me, I just want to snack on many, so I had the pork nuggets and veggie fritters. The veggie fritters were disappointing, nothing special just fried balls. However, the pork nuggets were really quite good; very juicy inside and nicely crusted. The flavor was wonderful. For dessert I had the berry shortcake, was a nice one for the hot summer, quite lovely. I will definitely go back and try some of their other dishes, plus the place is so close by.

Pretzel Floater!

Summer is here. To whom that like pools, you can now relax on a giant pretzel floater which is available at Urban Outfitters.

Mochi wants the last drop of Mojito


what's cooking...


My Basil plant has been growing very nicely, and I have been putting them in pasta and salads and pizza. This time I made pesto mixed with couscous as a bed for pan seared chicken.

Into the water-can

Just want to show off how cute my Mochi is!

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

Another wonderful pie by Dr. Castle. I had never tasted rhubarb before, so this is my first time having strawberry rhubarb pie. It is delicious! I love how tart and sour rhubarb is, which makes perfect pie filling. Dr. Castle also hand wiped up some cream to top the pie with. He is no doubt the king of pies.

Another Year



Dr. Castle, knowing my dislike for birthday cakes, asked what I would rather have. I said fruit tart...and I got one! Dr. Castle's beautiful fruit tart is amazing; refreshing, creamy custard, great crust, soooo yummy! That night we went to happy hour at FARMiCiA with wonderful company. I had a couple of my favourites drinks, and ordered asparagus risotto croquettes for dinner. It's delicious; creamy risotto inside and light crunch outside. Quite Happy.
