興 Pho'

With Winnie, Pho is a must. Winnie's mom used to invite kids over for her renowned Pho. There was just one episode that Wei-Ning commented that the beef was like chewing gum...haha

This place is like the gourmet's top choice of pho in Toronto. The pho I ordered was delicious.



This lady was waiting ahead of us. She wasn't happy that the line was cut by the other. She was upset. I thought she was charming, though.

Winnie w/ Pistachio cupcake

Winnie and I stopped by this dessert place with serendipity. The dessert chef, Donald Duong, was one of the gold medalists of 2004 World Culinary Olympics. I won't hestitate to suggest this place to any gourmets. The presentation and the taste of the dessert are in perfect balance! And my camera and my tongue both appreciated that.

Preface

I havent' traveled for my own cause for a long time, and the visit of Toronto was one that I have been postponding too long. It was a trip without any serious planning on my side (lazy bastard, Winnie will put it that way...ha).

I simply drifted with the slow pace of the city; enjoyed a couple drinks, mostly Canadian Beers.

The trip was delightful, just what I needed.

Was it too short?

Nah, it was just right.
