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). Of course, I saw the wonderful people at Muskoka Lakes Wineries […]
One of DelectablyChic!’s favourite events of the year, the Gourmet Food & Wine Expo (not to be confused with the Food and Wine Festival, which was held earlier this year) starts on Thursday with a VIP party and continues until Sunday at the Metro Convention Centre North Building. Many old favourites are returning, including Magic […]
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 […]
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 […]
Yes, it’s for real (brand name is MerloCola) and it’s one of the many exhibitors at this year’s Gourmet Food and Wine Expo. I tried it and have to admit that it was quite…interesting. While the small sample was good, I’m not really sure if I’ll ever have a full serving. I think I’m a […]
Can you believe that the Gourmet Food and Wine Expo is just days away? This is a favourite event of DelectablyChic! and many favourites look like they’ll be back, including Hank Daddy’s BBQ (known for their pulled pork parfait – something we noted back in a 2011 post for this event), Brix chocolate (they were […]
As noted in Sunday’s post, the Gourmet Food & Wine Expo 2013 started yesterday with a VIP evening, and opens to the public today. With plenty of cooking demonstrations and tastings, there’s much to do at this year’s expo. I was at the VIP event Thursday evening, trying the many foods and wines at the […]
As in previous years, the show will open with a VIP evening on Thursday, November 14, and will have public admissions, starting on Friday, November 15 at 2 PM. As usual, the expo will feature wines, spirits, beers and more from around the world, as well as delicious foods from various restaurants and other food-related […]
Mental health has definitely taken its toll on our culture as a good work-life balance becomes more and more difficult. Thus, awareness and help for those who need it have increasingly been in the limelight, even if it is still a topic that one is not “supposed” to talk about. Toronto’s Houselink, an organization which […]
The Gourmet Food and Wine Expo has ended for another year and it was definitely another year of success for them, judging from the massive crowd that was in attendance on Friday night. In fact, the crowd was so big that it was pretty difficult to navigate from station to station, meaning that it was […]
