awesTRUCK 2013
One rainy Saturday afternoon did not dissuade us from attending this year’s awesTRUCK food festival. Canada’s largest Food Truck Festival happened this weekend and here’s just a small peek at some of the offerings that we sampled. We started off with a mochaccino from Manual Labour Coffee.

Old man winter has decided to return to Toronto this season but gave us a small window of reprieve this weekend. Fifteen degrees in the dead of winter is certainly a lovely treat and we definitely took advantage of it. Toronto is filled with a myriad of both chain and independent java joints with great […]
