Funny how people get different impressions of certain places. Last week we ran a review of Indian restaurant Chakra that wasn’t very favourable. But at Spotlight Toronto, Suresh attended the official opening and really loved the place. He also headed up to the opening of Le Pain Quotidien for some tasty bread.

Posted Toronto looks at the renovations that will change the face of the Five Thieves at Yonge and Summerhill, and the poor beleaguered plastic bag and the considerations to ban them from LCBO stores. And at Menumental, Eric Vellend looks at what customers can do to make sustainable seafood choices.

Ivy Knight butters up her friends at Gremolata with a blind tasting of various butters. Zoltan Szabo drinks some wine in Chile, and the Gremotraveller visits Philadelphia.

At Toronto Life, James Chatto visits Niagara wine country and also sips some $30,000 whisky. And David Lawrason looks at the Top 10 of the recent Vintages release.

Susan enjoys some dim sum at BlogTO where she reviews Dynasty Chinese Cuisine, and Joshua recaps the Brewer’s Plate event.
