November 22, 2015: Dim Sum And Dogs!

Recently, someone lamented the fact that I haven’t posted food porn or dog pics for quite a while.  Lately, it’s been nothing but Dark Matter this, Dark Matter that.  So, tonight, I’m going old school with this throwback entry.  Pictured above, Akemi shows off her new sweater purchase at dim sum.

After coming across the food-themed instagram account of my co-worker, Natalie Cooper (CoopDuJour: https://www.instagram.com/coopdujour/), Akemi was inspired to – ask me to make a reservation at Toronto’s top dim sum restaurant: Lai Wah Heen.

To ensure lunch didn’t conflict with fantasy football, we dined nice and early at 11:00 a.m.  The food was delicious, but it was the presentation that truly impressed.  Check out the lobster dumpling pictured above.

  1. Akemi’s sweater looks great! But then again, that girl would look good wearing a potato sack!

    And how much more clear it could it be than from that last pic that Akemi is Bubba’s best friend. What a great picture.

  2. Joe, may I give you a suggestion for late S2 or, Lord willing, S3? If yes, I’ll send email.

  3. I just realized I was reading this post earlier and suddenly fell asleep. . . right after studying those rat ears and reading, “And now, onto the dog pics!” . . . boom!, out like a light. Well, anyway, Lulu is right where she needs to be and Akemi and Bubba are so cute together.

  4. Nice selection of food….and of course, the doggie pix are priceless!
    You and Lulu and Akemi and Bubba – awwwwwww.

  5. I stayed in the hotel that the restaurant is in lastonth, and really wanted to go! We had such a short time in Toronto, but it’s going to be on my list for next time I’m there.

    Your dogs are too cute to be legal I’m pretty sure.
