Thursday’s dinner: Thuet (from last Friday)
Thoroughly enjoyed dinner Friday at Chef Marc’s new abode on King Street. I started with cantaloupe soup with port and topped with a dollop of ‘aged balsamic sobert’ (a fancy-smachy way of saying frozen vinegar). My main was a choucroute of “Icy Waters” arctic char with basil emulsion. “Icy Waters”??? silly adjective imho but the fish was excellent. G had the summer navarin of lamb with hand rolled potato gnocchi. That was a winner for sure! The bread baskets kept coming and bottles of white and red helped topped off a great evening. Our waiter was one of the best I’ve had in Toronto in some years. The space is lovely, though far too noisy. Blee has been there for lunch and commented it’s much quieter. Worth a visit for sure.

Thursday’s World Cup dessert of choice: Blee’s oh-so-fabulous Prosecco and Summer Fruit Terrine
OMG World Cupolicious!
Thursday’s Tattoo parlour: Well, don’t know the name of it …
But it’s on King just east of Thuet’s. Looks good fun. My tattoo artist operates out of his home and is a genius for old folks like myself. It’s comfortable, discrete and thoroughly clean and safe. This place, though, could tempt me into a visit for some token tattoo.
Thursday’s Naughty Game: Naughty American History
If you’re ever in need of a fun – and educational – game to play to help you … well, to help with things …. pay this silly site a visit. Not only lessons on history but you get to watch a guy strip!
Thursday’s Xanga Site Addition: Music
I finally found time to add my iPod to Xanga. Check that off my list.
