While Amanda & I are hard at work finalizing the details on a HUGE #DoTheDaniel contest for Mother’s Day (Follow @AmandaHayden on Twitter & Instagram if you aren’t already!), I thought I would give our Toronto fans a chance to celebrate Mother’s Day in style. Our friends at Mariposa Cruises have come up with a special Mother’s Day Brunch Cruise that might just be the most memorable way to celebrate with mom this year in Toronto.

Food & Wine | It’s easier than ever to have your very own #TetleyTeaParty
I am a coffee fanatic. With a busy schedule and life, you wouldn’t want to see me at 5am without a big mug full of caffeine. That being said, I also really love a cup of tea. There is something soothing about it and heaven is a place on earth while I sip that cup soaking in a hot tub. Doesn’t happen often, but when it does, I am at peace with the world.
Recently Julio & I had the chance to attend a #TetleyTeaParty at Trump International Hotel & Tower Toronto. During this immaculately executed event (follow the #TetleyTeaParty hashtag to see what I mean!), I was introduced to pairing tea with food. Having never experienced this to the level of wine pairings I am so adept in, I was pleasantly immersed in a whole new world. You could say I enjoyed steeping in the process of it all. Yes. I just did that.
With four flavours in the Tetley Signature Collection that we sampled, no matter what the occasion, Tetley Canada has a tea for you. Be it to soak in the tub after a long day or to enjoy with a beautiful meal, there is something for everyone. The Signature Collection takes tea to a new height with elegant blends and coy names. Take a peak at what we had the chance to enjoy and keep stocked in our pantry ever since! Continue reading “Food & Wine | It’s easier than ever to have your very own #TetleyTeaParty”
Daniel’s Dish | Fonda Lola
The premise of the column is simple; work with restaurants of all kinds to explore what they have to offer and what makes them unique. In a city like Toronto, the choices are sometimes daunting and the food reviews and critics can be snotty and too complicated for their own good. So why not keep this easy? Drinks. Appetizer. Main Course. Dessert. All along with a bit of information about what makes them my choice for Daniel’s Dish and why you should try them right away!

Health & Nutrition | Shangri-La | The Healthy Oasis
It’s no secret that I love Toronto. My aim is to travel back there as much as humanly possible. But, much like the many other health-conscious people out there, I struggle with the whole planning aspect. What do I eat while I’m on-the-go? How do I keep up with my healthy routine when it feels like there is no routine at all? How do I truly enjoy myself without throwing off all of the hard work and progress that I’ve made?
