Last Friday night, I was waiting for an order from Descendant and decided to check out some of the…read morebusinesses while I was waiting. I took a left from the pizza place and found Cookery. I looked at the sign placed on the sidewalk and it offers cooking classes. Cool! What drew me in was a pasta dryer. It was red and translucent. It looked cool. I walked in. There is a little ramp for those who may need a wheelchair to enter and exit the store. Perhaps I had luck on my side. I didn't have anyone asking whether I needed assistance. I like self-discovery when I have nothing in mind to shop for. A female staffer was assisting two other female customers. Judging from their conversation, they would be going at it for a while. One of them was awfully specific about the types of mini bowls that she had in mind. I was correct. They were still talking by the time I had completed by browsing excursion in this store. This store is more on the higher end of kitchen appliances and accessories. If you're looking for higher quality items, you want to shop here. I have a few examples. I found a stainless steel poacher for eggs. I frankly don't think that you need to get one for $15, but you can if you're dying to own one. I found a rather fancy-looking carbonation machine. It made my SodaStream machine that I love look like a toy. I love Le Creuset. It is truly an investment when you are buying pieces, so I don't own a lot of items. I normally hit an outlet or wait for a sale. This place had a silicone brush for basting turkeys or applying egg wash to your pastries before shoving them into the oven. It felt good in my hand until I saw that it was $25. Really? The cooking classes seem to happen at the back. There is a kitchen, but it had so many products around the cooking area that was obviously dormant. It was odd to me. You'd have to take all your products off before you have your cooking class. It seemed like a lot of work. Perhaps there's another kitchen area in the back that I wasn't aware of. Who knows? It was nice browsing around this store. I liked looking at the covered shopping carts. I grew up with a foldable metal one with two wheels. It was bigger that the ones offered here, but I like how your items are protected from the elements. The designed looked nice compared to my boxy ones that I've owned over the years when I didn't have a car and needed to walk to the supermarket down the street. I look forward to returning to this store and checking out their items some more. (31)

I recently won a $3000 dinner for 6 people hosted by City Gourmet and sponsored by Two Oceans…read moreWines. We just had the dinner last night and had an amazing experience. Chef Kai Zyganiuk and his lovely assistant Jen did an amazing job. They arrived at my friends house at 2:00pm to start cooking and setting up the dinner for us. Myself and our other friends arrived at 5:00pm to begin the event. When I arrived Chef Kai was in the kitchen cooking our 6 course meal. He asked us what time we would like to begin eating. We choose 6pm so we could mingle and get ready for the evenings festivities. Each course was paired with the perfect Two Oceans Wine and Chef Kai accommodated everyone's food allergies. 1st Course: Our first course was a seared shrimp with a curried aioli, toasted sesame seeds and blackened lime. It tasted delicious and was paired with Two Oceans Pinot Grigio. The flavour combinations were so good, I definitely could have eaten more of the shrimp. The shrimp melted in our mouths and presented a unique flavour pallet when eaten with the aioli. I'll definitely be asking Chef Kai for the recipe. 2nd Course: The second course was a soup made with a white bean purée, charred chorizo sausage, chives and a toasted baguette (of course I didn't get to try the baguette since I'm both gluten and lactose intolerant but everyone said it was delicious). The soup tasted fantastic! It was spicy and flavourful. I really enjoyed the sausage within the soup. That is something I have never done before and it tasted exquisite. This course was paired with Two Oceans Sauvignon Blanc. The Sauvignon Blanc was smoother than most and definitely my favourite wine we tried during the main courses. (Hold tight for my review on the dessert wine). 3rd Course: The third Course was a delightful baby gem lettuce salad served with pickled red onions, warm pressed feta cheese (which looked amazing), toasted brioche, roasts almonds and vinaigrette. The salad had a nice woody flavour and I really enjoyed it. 4th Course: The fourth course was an 11 hour braised berkshire pork seasoned with exotic spices and served with pearl cous cous (my course arrived with champ potatoes instead), red wine jus, onion jam, and micro basil. This course was very savoury. Chef Kai made extra and everyone had seconds. This dish with Two Oceans Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot. The Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot was medium bodied with a berry oak flavour. 5th Course: The fifth course was definitely the grand finale. Chef Kai prepared a seared prime beef tenderloin with a side of smoked Gouda cheese (I wish I wasn't lactose intolerant... hehe), tart cherries, champ potatoes, baby vegetables and natural jus. The steak was prepared perfectly. Chef Kai served it medium rare and it melted in our mouths. The tart cherries added a really unique flavour I had not experienced while eating a steak before. In fact, it was delightful. This main was paired with Two Oceans Shiraz. The Shiraz was fruity and medium bodied. It had notes of red cherries and vanilla. It's definitely worth trying if you enjoy red wine. 6th Course: The sixth course was a delicious dessert. Chef Kai prepared a medjool date cake for us with citrus and mint ice cream, baked lavender soil, soused berries and warm caramel sauce. My friends loved this course. I was served a bowl of soused berries and they were really good. This course was paired with Two Oceans Moscato. The Moscato was amazing and definitely my favourite wine of the night. I have a real sweet tooth and love sweet wines. If you enjoy sweet wines as well I highly recommend you try Two Oceans Moscato; it's sweet and goes down smooth. Chef Kai did an amazing job catering our Two Oceans get together. Chef Kai is extremely friendly and a master at what he does. He does an incredible job in the kitchen and can make due with whatever type of kitchen appliances you have. I highly recommend working with him and hope we can dine together again. My friends and I are eager to try one of his cooking classes. Thank you for a wonderful evening Chef Kai and Two Oceans Wine.

The sushi they served was mostly basic rolls with a couple pieces of nigiri and sashimi every so often. It wasn't the same spread as an actual AYCE sushi resto but it was still delicious and satisfying. It was served buffet style with the chefs making them fresh and laying them out on platters at the front for people to take. The karaoke was great fun and singing in front of strangers was a little nerve wracking but everyone was enthusiastic and supportive. There were singers of all skill levels at this event.
