It was amazing. I got off at Dundas station on the subway and all I could smell was… MEAT! It brought a big smile to this foodie’s face. I followed my nose up the stairs and out to Yonge-Dundas Square to attend Burgermania 2019. The Event Burgermania is a free three-day food “extravaganza” and there […]

Cabbagetown Festival 2018

September 10, 2018 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

In all the years growing up in Toronto I had only been to Cabbagetown once and when I was there I found it completely enchanting. Sadly I moved away to Ottawa within a couple of years and never got to go back. When my friend The Foodie Realtor asked if I wanted to go to […]

Last Day at the PNE

September 5, 2017 by Suzie the Foodie Leave a Comment

I did not think we were going to get to go to the PNE this summer. Vancouver’s Pacific National Exhibition can be a ton of fun but Reg has had an extremely busy summer. I was having my doubts that we were going to make it this year. Thankfully yesterday, the last day of the […]

August 21, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie Leave a Comment

The Columbia StrEAT Food Truck Fest was astounding. All of Columbia Street in New Westminster was shut down so pedestrians like me could check out the dozens and dozens of food trucks from all over the Lower Mainland. The Trucks I could not possibly share them all in the post so check out my video! […]

I Survived YVR Food Fest

August 8, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

I was very excited to go to YVR Food Fest but had some hesitations. I found it odd that to get a general admission ticket for $10 I had to wait to go until after 2 pm. The location also worried me. It was being held at The Olympic Village which seemed kind of vague to me. It […]

It kept speaking to me, telling me we had to go for our ten year wedding anniversary. What could be more romantic and special than feeling like you have stepped into […]
