Wow, so many goodies at the spring One of a Kind Show this year! I was a little disappointed that my favourite spring artisan, Beverley’s Bakers (delicious butter tarts of all kinds) was not at the show this time around, but other favourites, including The Fishery and 3rd Floor Studio. In the meantime, I discovered […]
I had the opportunity to attend a media preview/opening day of this season’s One of a Kind Show, and many of DelectablyChic!’s most loved vendors are back at this season’s show.

Moses Znaimer’s Ideacity returned for its 17th Year with the theme of the Number 17.

Her […]

Once again, I had the opportunity to attend the VIP event at this year’s Gourmet Food & Wine Expo. Some old favourites are back, as noted in an earlier post (and some were missing, as well, such as long time attendee, Hank Daddy’s BBQ).

Earlier this week, I had the chance to go to an event at the J.Crew store in Toronto’s Yorkville area.

The event was very […]
