    The air got mighty chilly on Sunday evening, and I say what better way to warm up than a big steaming bowl of pho? And, if that doesn’t fire up the belly, a plate of lemongrass chicken with chili-and-onion rice sure will! At an average of $6 per person for a full meal, Vietnamese food has got to be one of the best ways to satisfy an appetite on a budget.

  2. Deer Double-Take

    HUH?!? We couldn’t believe our eyes: a full-grown male deer bounding across the Humber River underneath the bridge on Bloor Street near Old Mill station. Of course, I was holding a camera at that very moment. It’s not every day you see a deer with antlers in proximity of a subway!

    (And, of course, I couldn’t help but think of Mister Look! A Deer! himself.)
