National Women’s Show Toronto: Fun Day – Just Not for Media

The National Women’s Show Toronto edition was held Friday through Sunday at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.  As usual, there were exhibitors from many industries, ranging from fashion and beauty to food, travel and more.  In addition, there were demonstrations and fashion shows.  All in all, the event was a great deal of fun – […]

Here Comes the Cashmere Bride: Highlights from White Cashmere 2015

I’ve been covering the annual White Cashmere in support for breast cancer awareness since 2012 or so.  This year was no exception.  Hosted by Beverly Thomson and held on September 29 at the beautiful, historic Carlu on Yonge and College, the 2015 theme was centred around bridal gowns, with many of the country’s top wedding […]

Virginia Tourism’s Foodie Event at ARD

Recently, DelectablyChic! travel writer, Lynn Burshtein and I were invited by Pulse Communications, a travel PR agency, to attend food-related event hosted by Virgina Tourism.  Held at ARD (THE LOFT Andrew Richard Designs), it featured delicious delights highlighting the culinary scene in Virginia.  There were food stations featuring fried hand pies, Virginia ham, oysters, Virginia […]

Highlights from the Toronto Food & Wine Festival

The first-ever Toronto Food & Wine Festival was held at Evergreen Brickworks between Friday, September 18 and Sunday, September 20.  I have to admit that the event was a bit more fun when it was known as the “Delicious Food Show.”  It felt a little smaller this year, without many of the vendors from last […]

Toronto Food and Wine Festival: Starts Friday!

The inaugural Toronto Food and Wine Festival (formerly known as the Delicious Food Show) starts on September 18!  Sure, it has a very similar name to that OTHER food and wine event in November (but I’m sure no one will be confused), the website makes it sound a bit more casual and more consumer-focused.  And […]

Chocolate Cheese, Kefir Drinks and Other SIAL 2015 Highlights

I had the wonderful opportunity to attend SIAL 2015 this year.  I went for the first time in 2013, the last time they were in Toronto, an event which switches back and forth between our city and Montreal.  Each year, a country is featured (this year was Indonesia), while other countries also present their items […]

Porzia: Spring Menu Delicious, Event Could Have Been Better

I had the chance to experience Porzia‘s new menu on April 15 through an invitation from its PR company.  It was served cocktail style with cheese, crostini as well as pasta and dessert.  The food was excellent, but the environment was far from that.  In order to truly taste the food, attendees had to hover […]

IDS 2015 VIP Party: Unique Home Items, Delicious Food and More!

January 22 was the VIP party for this year’s Interior Design Show.  It was, as usual, an amazing event, where guests were able to see all of the booths before “public” viewing on Saturday, such as modern creations at Studio North, up close with Stone Forest’s tubs and sinks, and, of course, enjoy delicious food […]
