Luke’s Kitchen

Back in March of 2008, Kingstonist published our second food-related post, which featured a well known dining establishment by the name of Luke’s. This local culinary gem is special for many reasons, while it has arguably put Kingston on the map for foodies and critics alike.  As a part of last week’s Kingston Canadian [...]

Six Questions for Coffeeco

Back in November 2009, the Limestone New Media Group hosted their monthly meetup at Coffeeco, specifically at the Kingston Centre location. During that meeting, Coffeeco’s owner, Rich Ottenhof, stepped out from behind the espresso machine to talk briefly about his business as well as his experiments with social media. Rich left me thoroughly [...]

The Rise of the Locavore

Like many people, each and every year I make a pledge to better myself, and give back to the local community.  This year, I purposely kept my New Year’s resolution to myself. It’s not as though I was ashamed of my master plan for 2010, rather, I feared that if I put it [...]

Ta-ke or Leave it

Well, I must say, we sure have a lot of sushi in this town considering our size. That is not by any means a complaint though! Yes, another sushi review. I can’t help it, I’m an addict!
Harvey and I hit Ta-ke Sushi last week and I have to say I was not [...]

Sima Sushi

This weekend Harvey and I had guests visiting from out of town. Little did we know, so did many people, including all the hotels and many of the restaurants. The city was flooded with dancers and musicians for the Rob Roy Highland Dancers Fall Competition making it difficult for locals like us to [...]

Sushi Ya

Last month I did a bit of crowd sourcing, and requested your recommendations for happenin’ sushi spots in the Limestone City.  My call to bear chopsticks seemed rather popular, as it received 10 solid responses and nods to local restaurateurs.  With a little help from my friends, and a desire to try something other than [...]

Got Sushi?

Within the past year, the Limestone City has experienced a small surge in the number of new sushi restaurants opening up.  Fresh establishments including:  Sushi Q (409 Johnson), Sima (66 Princess), Sushi Ya (766 Princess), and Arisu (185 Division), have been established to either balance out or tip the supply and demand equation in Kingston.  [...]

Pizza, It’s My Obsession

Musical actor and comedian Charles Pierce once said, “the perfect lover is one who turns into a pizza at 4am.”  At the risk of frightening and possibly offending my wife, I have to agree.  In the name of expanding Kingstonist’s Food and Drink section, in the past we’ve featured posh pizza parlours including Woodenheads as [...]

Megalos

When it comes to tasty joints that I would honestly recommend to both friend and foe, only a handful of local eateries come to mind.  Without question, somewhere high up on my top 10 list lies Megalos, a gorgeously decorated resto with a fishbowl view of all the action taking place downtown.  Megalos is relaxed [...]

Friday Foto

Work is really taking a toll on me lately, so I am extremely grateful for weekends, especially long ones. Fall is definitely in the air, and along with the changing leaves, I’m looking forward to eventually enjoying all sorts of local, seasonal produce. As I’ve mentioned in the past, I’m a relatively new [...]
