Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino Coffee Drink

 

I wanted to try this PSL coffee drink (Frappuccino) from Starbucks since last year, but unfortunately it sold out immediately. So this year I bought it as soon as I saw it on store shelves. I’m actually a big fan of Starbucks coffee drinks that come in this glass bottle. They tend to be delicious because they’re pure cream, sugar and coffee. Well, I’m already a fan of PSL so this limited edition drink did not disappoint. As soon as you pop it open (literally) you are blasted with the smell of PSL, and when you drink it cold it tastes just as good as an iced PSL Frappuccino. I hope to buy a few more bottle this season before they disappear again.

La Cocina Tortilla Chips

Just like books you should never judge a bag of tortilla chips by its cover or…. bag. Well you know what I mean. Anyways, a friend of mine introduced me to these La Cocina tortilla chips last year when she brought some over to my place. I had seen them before in stores but never bought them because they look like generic chips. But as soon as I tried some I was hooked. They taste like a mix between sour cream, nacho cheese, and salsa. I like to also describe the flavour as being tangy but without being spicy.

These tortilla ships are made in Canada as well, which might seem strange but trust me they are good. In fact I love them so much I tend to eat a bag in a day. I have no shame, these chips are that good.

Wendy’s Canada Bacon Portabella Mushroom Melt


While Christmas is over and the New Year is upon us and everything sucks after Christmas, there is one thing to look forward to and that’s Wendy’s Canada releasing the bacon portabella mushroom melt. I don’t know about the rest of the world like in the US but in Canada, Wendy’s has been releasing the BPMM in January (sometimes late December). I first started eating the BPMM back in high school in the 90’s! And ever since then I have not stopped celebrating this once a year masterpiece without buying a combo and scarfing it down with all its delicious cheese sauce and mushrooms. This burger is perfect buy unfortunately is here only for a limited time, so get yours while you can. Oh and can we go back to calling it the bacon mushroom  melt again?

Scarborough Town Centre Beef Patty

I grew up in Scarborough, the east district of Toronto. The biggest mall in Scarborough is Scarborough Town Centre a place where a person or family could shop, watch a movie, meet up with friends and also take public transportation. One of the best things about taking public transportation at STC, was that it was a bus and subway terminal for getting around the city. Unfortunately, once you paid to get inside the terminal you weren’t allowed to enter the mall to buy food if you were hunger. Fortunately in the 90’s they added a small little stand on the corner so that transit users could buy a snack, a newspaper, lotto, cigarattes and coffee (I’m sure a lot of people bought them all at once, lol). My favourite was the beef patty at STC because it was delicious, cheap and a quick meal when you were in a hurry trying to race from one bus to another bus or train. Anyways I recently had the chance to go back to STC and thankfully the same little stand was still there with the mustache owner. Beef patties are now $2.50 and as always are handed to you nice and warm in a white paper bag. Despite the subway now being gone, I’m glad that I can still get my beef patty at STC.
