Change o' plans

Ok... so, after realizing that most people read blogs using their google blogreader that essentially downloads all of their favorites to one place... I think for the time being I will continue to blog here as well as on my website. So.. here is the latest blog that I recently posted on my website:

As I have been blogging during the past few years, I am sure that many of you have been disappointed or curious as to why sometimes my blogging is kept up to date while other times I am absent. Perhaps because there is no common theme... no method to my madness! With the help of a friendly Canadian, I have decided that my blog will focus on my travels and perhaps more specifically on the wonderful culinary delights I find along the way!

Soooo.... back tracking a bit, lets talk about Toronto. At first glance I seriously thought this might have been the first town where there wasn't an overwhelming obviousness to where one should grab a bite to eat! They had the standard Irish pub and decent late night eatery near the theater, but where was the stuff that would eventually blow my taste bud's mind??

It seems that it takes a native to show a tourist whats what in the "Great White North". You can imagine my surprise when the first idea thrown out was pulled pork, BBQ brisket, and shredded chicken sandwiches at Toronto's very own Black Camel. I was like BBQ in Canada? Whoa people, WHOA! This place is truly amaaaaaaazing! Check out this review! - so, yeah... we started off on the right track! Another recommendation that soon followed was another surprise for this Texan: Burrito Boyz , voted "Best Burrito in Toronto" ..ok, sooo, whats the big deal? My friends, it WAS a big deal. This burrito was DELICIOUS! Your choice of whole wheat or regular tortilla with all the fixin's that you would imagine in an off-the-beaten-path bodega in any Tex-Mex lovin' city here in TX! Needless to say, I quickly became a happy stranger in a foreign land. Other fantastic recommendations include Beer Bistro, Fran's Diner, and of course, The Keg. Thank you my friendly Canadians for your delicious cuisine, admirable hospitality, and wonderful taste in all things fun. :-)

Next up... Portland, Maine! (I'm thinkin' LOBSTER!!)
