There have been several restaurants located at 137 Avenue Road, located just a bit north of Bloor with various different types of cuisines, including Indian and Italian. In fact, I had reviewed the Indian restaurant once when this site was still known as Prospere Magazine. Sadly, it closed shortly after the article was published. Then […]

Cynthia’s Restaurant List Review: Combine Eatery
Last Friday, I posted a(n on-going) list of restaurants in the city that I would like to try (or return to for a different meal). The first restaurant knocked from the list was Combine Eatery, located on Danforth Avenue, just east of Broadview. The restaurant is, according to sources, “southwest” – as in Southwestern United […]
Cynthia’s Restaurant List (Places She Still Needs to Go) – Updated August 20
People who follow me/DelectablyChic! on Instagram and Twitter know that I eat out a lot. I have my regular spots (especially for brunch) and also try new places. And in Toronto, there are plenty of places to try. I can’t even keep up! So I’ve decided to come up with a list. Some of the […]
Financial District Meets Hipsterville at the Beverley Hotel

This restaurant, located just a few steps west of Pape station, has delicious menu that is influenced […]
Back to DT Bistro: A Review
I last wrote about DT Bistro almost three years ago, first about their brunch and then again, their prix fixe dinner. This restaurant, located on Harbord Road between Spadina and Bathurst, was actually where my husband and I got our wedding cake (after a very long search). A bit has changed since the last time […]
Celebrating Five Years Online!
Earlier this week, DelectablyChic! marked five years online. Well, it isn’t exactly five years as we published under another name – Prospere Magazine – between January 2008 and September 2010. The purpose when we launched was to have an online publication (marketed at that time as a “blogzine”) for smart, sophisticated women – a site […]
Restaurant Review: 17 Steps
I usually don’t do restaurant reviews since beauty and style is more my thing but I do enjoy to eat and I recently found this great restaurant that I had to write about. The name of the restaurant is called 17 Steps – it’s in the basement and it takes 17 steps to get down […]
