Dinner @ Mustafa Turkish Pizza, North York



I really appreciate that all meals come with a fresh salad to start off with.  The pizza here is deliciously fresh and crispy. But it's the Baklava that stole the show. It was so great that we end up ordering a box to take home. It's a small family run restaurant but you can tell that the owners really put a lot of heart into this.

What has been ordered
  • 5/5 
    • Square Baklava
  • 4.5/5
    • Turkish sausage and cheese
  • 4/5 
    • Assorted pizza 
Summary
  • 4.5/5
    • Turkish pizza is delicious, although slightly on the salty side
    • Great value - $40 for 2
    • Service is friendly
    • Seating environment is cool - love the cave decor

Lunch @ Nook Express, LINQ, Las Vegas


Ordered a coffee and a warm croissant with cheese, eggs and ham.  It was so delicious.  And large.  A it's got lots of ham.  Maybe I was hungry, but I thought it was one of the best warm croissants I've tasted!  The coffee is also flavourful.

Drinks @ Jean Philippe Patisserie Bellagio, Las Vegas


Afternoon drink at Jean Philippe Patisserie.  I know the chocolate crepe is supposedly godly delicious, but I just wasn't hungry, so got a mocha coffee iced drink instead.  It was still good - not too sweet and not too thick. I did ask for the coffee to be half sweet though.  Perfect as a thirst quencher.

What was ordered
  • 4/5 Great
    • Dark chocolate iced coffee
Summary
  • 4/5 Great place for a snack
    • Price is reasonable
    • Iced coffee can be requested to be half sweet
    • There are some tables by the cafe for you to sit and enjoy
    • Service is decent

Dinner @ Lemongrass Aria, Las Vegas



We ordered the Drunken Noodle with Seafood and steamed sea bass.  The sea bass was incredibly flavourful and was perfectly done (it's so easy to over cook fish), but was a bit pricey at $28 US.  The Dunken Noodle came highly recommended, but I found it to be average, maybe it's cause I've grown accustomed to great Asian food in Toronto?


What was ordered

  • 5/5 Divine
    • Steamed Sea Bass
  • 3/5 Good
    • Dunken Noodle with Seafood

Summary

  • Score: 4/5  
    • Steamed sea bass was perfectly cooked
    • Price is decent considering you're in Vegas!
    • Service was decent
    • Seating environment is comfortable
