Bacon Cologne!

For years I have been standing by my theory that the smell of cooked meat should be available as a scent. Personally, I think a woman who walks by smelling like hamburgers is far more likely to grab my attention than a waft of dried daisies. Although I've never put this theory to practice, the fine people at Fargginay have. They recently introduced Bacōn, a cologne for men that will undoubtedly see 1,000,000,000% profits in the next quarter.

Let the Year of the Bacon continue!

I don't care what Chinese Astrology has to say about it, this IS the Year of the Bacon.

83 Belly Busting Restaurant Challenges

Here's a bloated list of challenges across America that are sure to put your average Canadian in an early grave. I'm pretty sure this is just an average American supper.

Pizza Gigi is a Drug Den

I have always liked this pizza joint, and now I know why. <Insert random joke comparing pizza toppings to drugs!> From blogTO.com:

"Pizza Gigi, the popular Annex pizzeria, was shut down earlier today after police found over $1 million worth of marijuana, MDMA, OxyContin and crack cocaine on the premises."

That's a some-a-spicy meat-a-ball!

Porchetta & Co.

If you're a lover of all things pork and you live in Toronto, you should definitely swing by Porchetta & Co., a new sandwich shop on Dundas West. This place does one thing and does one thing right: pork sandwiches. This is no ordinary, leftover pork-chop-on-a-bun sandwich. Porchetta is a traditional Italian way of roasting pig. They start with a pork shoulder covered in spice, wrap that in prosciutto, then wrap that in pork bellies. Hot damn, you've got yourself one hell of a sandwich. The pork belly crisps as it roasts (sometimes called crackle), the prosciutto cooks perfectly and the pork shoulder centre remains full of juicy flavour. There are several add-ons that you can top this baby with like mushrooms, rappini, mozarrella and truffle sauce, but to be honest it is just fine on it's own. There are also side options like soup and potatoes. Get in there and try it out! Sandwiches are only $5.95 to start and a welcome change from the usual lunch garbage that TO has to offer.

I give it 4/5 pig tails, because I feel that the presentation could have been better. 

Porchetta & Co. are located at 825 Dundas St. W, and are open Tues.-Sat. 11:00am-9:00pm; Sun. 11:00am-4:00pm; closed Mondays.

The Greasy French Canadian - Best Sandwich Ever?

"20" french toasted Parisian baguette, poutine, quebecois steamy, bacon sandwich covered in 100% pure maple syrup from the tit of The Mother Maple Tree."  Today, I am proud to be Canadian.  Like every other day, but today especially.




Rum on the table, greasy sandwich down the trap.  "It's so good".  I bet it is.

The Fat Sandwich

Meaning you will be fat when you finish this. Lordamercy.

Measuring almost six inches in diameter, we’re looking at a sandwich made of two rolls, 4 cheeseburgers, double cheesesteak, chicken cheesesteak, gyro meat, grilled chicken, bacon, sausage, mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, chicken nuggets, mac n cheese bites, fried mushrooms, jalapeño poppers, pizza bites, onion rings, hash browns, American cheese, mayo, ketchup and french fries. I guess a good question to ask is, what’s NOT on this sandwich? You can pick one up from the Fat Sandwich Company if you’re so inclined to try all those ingredients and flavors in one bite.
