The Street Eatery

May 18, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

Thanks to social media, I had seen a glimpse of the offerings from The Street Eatery, and found myself drooling with most of what I saw. I was thrilled when I was invited to check them out for myself.

I went with my favourite little foodie, Q, for dinner on a Friday night. We went early and as the night wore on, the place filled up. The first thing you see on the wall is an amazing mural. The Street Eatery is a creation of three friends who were inspired by their travels and their roots. Their food is inspired by street food from around the world, from places like Korean and India. They opened last year but unfortunately due to a pipe burst earlier this year, they were forced to temporarily close. After the experience we had, we are thrilled that the place is up and running!

Cheddar and Chive Scones

May 7, 2017 By Fareen 4 Comments

Mother’s Day is a week away and what better way to celebrate than with brunch.  Scones are always popular for breakfast or brunch but not every mother has a sweet tooth. These Cheddar and Chive Scones are perfect for those that prefer savoury over sweet.

Cheddar and Chive Scones

Drop scones are my favourite kind of scone to make. They are super easy and the perfect dish for the kids to make. They are made with cream and come together so quick and easy. Just dump everything into a bowl, stir and drop the batter onto a baking tray. Seriously.

Instant Pot Khichri

April 25, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

After hearing how amazing the Instant Pot was, I had to get one for myself. I have been playing with it for a few weeks and am amazed at how fast things can be made in it.

One thing that I love to make in it is Khichri. Khichri is a dish made with rice and split moong beans and is cooked until almost mushy. It’s a simple dish but one that provides so much comfort. It’s one of the dishes that was introduced early to both kids and they love it. The beans provide a lot of nutrients and protein and makes me feel good about feeding the dish to the kids. It’s finished off with a knob of butter, making it creamy.

Tobiko Fried Rice

April 21, 2017 By Fareen 4 Comments

It’s always fun to go to one of your usual restaurants with different people. You get to learn about new things on the menu and try things you have never tried before.  I went for Dim Sum a couple weeks ago with some moms from Z’s school. As a family, we love going for dim sum but always order the same things. It was nice to try a few new items.

Dim Sum

One of the new items I tried was Dried Scallops with Tobiko Fried Rice. My friend said we had to order it…I’m so glad we did! The rice was mixed with green onions and tobiko with a large sprinkling of scallops on top. It was so full of flavour and texture and I was glad it was a large portion so that we didn’t need to skimp out.

You know those people who just love rice and need rice with everything? I am definitely not one of those people. I could leave it. So imagine how good this rice was if I was dreaming about it and couldn’t wait for another fill!
