I can’t pretend to be a restaurant critic nor a food expert. What I do have is wanderlust and a healthy appetite. I like to discover new places, eat good food and share my experiences. Good Eats are tasty, high-quality places and products I’d recommend without hesitation.
My ♥s are personal favourites, my coups de coeur. Places I keep going back to or wish I could get back to sooner rather than later. Places that create an exceptional experience or bring back special memories. Products I’d make a detour to buy. Products I don’t think twice about the price. Products that are unique.
I aim to have an individual blog post about each one of these. For now, I’ll just list them. I’m sure the list will continue to grow. Unless otherwise mentioned, the places and products are in or from Ottawa and region.
