The spring edition of the One of a Kind Show is a bit smaller than its holiday edition, but nonetheless still filled with artisans presenting everything from delicious food to crafts, fashion and more. So who’s there? Here are just some: Mélissa Nepton (Booth P49): Fresh after showing at World MasterCard Fashion Week, Mélissa Nepton […]
Mystery ingredients from episode 11 were take-out inspired and included items such as burgers, onion rings, pho, bubble tea and more. For the appetizer round, contestants had to put together a meal using pho, submarine sandwiches, pakoras and Greek salad. This week, I will attempt to create an elevated version of a meal my grandmother […]
Sid Neigum, who won the 2014-2015 Mercedes-Benz Start Up competition last season, presented his collection Monday evening, the first night of World MasterCard Fashion Week. The models walked down the runway to a string quartet, wearing pieces which were a combination of very wearable pieces to ones which were a bit more artistic. The palate […]
It’s going to be a busy week for DelectablyChic! World MasterCard Fashion Week starts tonight and we will be covering many of the shows, including Sid Neigum’s Mercedes-Benz Start Up presentation this evening. Other shows we will be attending include VAWK (who has been absent for the past couple of seasons) and Lole on Thursday. […]
I hate this time of year. It’s not cold enough to be completely bundled up, but definitely not warm enough to be strutting around in sandals and capris. It’s that in between time again. And yes, I’m still stuck in my ugly tall boots. They’re dirty from the snow (I don’t bother cleaning, since they’re […]
Also known as “student casserole,” this dish traditionally consists of ketchup, hotdogs, bad cheese and pasta. However, to make it just a bit “fancier,” (as if student food can be fancy – LOL!), I’m going to toss in a few other items, all in the appetizer basket of a recent episode of Chopped Canada. These […]
I still can’t believe the Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana made such an awful comment. And yes, Elton John and all the other celebrities are correct criticizing. Synthetic babies? Really? I realize that since English isn’t their first language, that there might have been some things lost in translation, but still, that’s how they feel. […]
Totally WTF, right? But this was what my grandmother told me to discourage me from dancing. I only know one other person who had a family member tell her that and yes, she, too is first generation Canadian with Chinese immigrant family members. Maybe it’s just misunderstanding, something that was lost in translation, but that’s […]
What do you do with stilton cheese and egg rolls? With watercress also in the basket, along with chestnut flour, you make some sort of salad, of course! This week, I’ve decided to use the ingredients from the first course to create some imaginary dish that I may or may not eventually make in real […]
As most people know, the Apple Watch was officially introduced yesterday. Sleek, functional and available in three different styles, the product will be available in select countries, including Canada and the United States on April 24. And yes, I am super-excited for the product. As per an earlier introduction, there will be three versions of […]
