Paul & Sandy's Real BBQ

Etobicoke, Ontario,

Paul & Sandy's Real BBQ is a real diamond in the rough! This quaint little place had me dropping "MMMmmmmMMms" and "delicious" throughout my entire meal.
One day, I was drawn in by the smell of smoke when driving down Dundas and thought "where there's smoke, there must be delicious bbq'd meat!!" As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted by Sandy, who seated us immediately at a small table near the back of the restaurant. I ordered the beef brisket sandwich with french fries and my boyfriend ordered the pulled pork 1 meat special with french fries & coleslaw. Sandy promptly brought over a fragrant smelling loaf of garlic bread (the carb-a-holic in me can still remember how it tasted and my mouth waters thinking of it!) while Paul is carving meticulously away at some smoked meat for our meal. When Sandy delivered our meals, we were both stunned to silence as we bit into our juicy, scrumptuous, and flavourful meals. My beef brisket was tender, moist, and had a real southern oomphf to it. My boyfriend's pulled pork was to die for - smothered in delicious homemade bbq sauce. Portions were large and enough to feed the two of us for dinner and doggie bag a lunch for my boyfriend. Not to mention their fries were delicious golden cut fries with mashed potato centres.
I would DEFINITELY recommend Paul & Sandy's Real BBQ for value, taste, and quality. I've never had such a delicious meal for such a great price.

After testing out this product for nearly two weeks, I haven't noticed a huge difference in the reduction of wrinkles but I have noticed that the dark circles and bags under my eyes have diminished. My eyes look more refreshed and less puffy. The one thing that I think is a major selling feature of this product is the slight cooling sensation when you are applying the product. It's soothing and relaxing at the same time. I like that this product is scent-free as I have very sensitive skin - it did not once cause my skin to break out and was not irritating in any way. I would highly recommend this product especially as it is readily available at retail for the fraction of the price of other eye creams. It also comes in this cool metallic packaging which dispenses just the right amount of cream. -

Was so excited to try the Infinity pad for the first time since I've been an Always fan for a long time. I found that although it was thin, there was no absorbency issues. On my heaviest days, I had no problems. However, I did find that the pad is a little too long for my body. I found that it was not all that comfortable. -

Generally speaking, I'm a bikini underwear kind of girl but there have been so many times that I go to read for "that dress" and realize it's that time of the month and I can't waltz out of the house with V.P.L syndrome. Finally, there's a product out there that I can use with my thongs. After trying these, I am sold on the fact that they are versatile enough to use on bikini underwear OR thongs. I can't say that I would be using them all the time for every period but I definitely think that it has its place in my secret stash. -

I'm not normally a foundation (liquid or otherwise) type of girl but decided to give this a try. I had a tough time matching my skin tone but eventually settled for something a little lighter than normal and strategically blended in some bronzer and blush. I found the foundation to be really light and airy. It was super easy to apply with a wet sponge. I found the coverage was a lot better than the average liquid foundation - the slightly thicker formula really went a long way. I was also really impressed that the matte finish lasted the entire day as I tend to have a case of "the oilies" in my T-Zone by the end of the day. I would recommend this product IF you can find a shade that matches your skin tone. -

Part of my beauty regiment is to put on Burt's Bees right before I go to bed - it keeps my lips moisturized overnight and when I wake up, my lips are no longer peeling or dry. I love the minty freshness -- I think of it as a sign that it's working its magic. I prefer the stick over the pot - don't like having beeswax stuck under my nail! -

Having recently discovering that insurance at work covers RMT massages, I came across this tiny place at 24 Roncesvalles Ave based on a friend's recommendation. At first glance, you may question the legitimacy of it. However, after the first massage, you will discover what consistent and great work they do. There are two types of massages available: professional and student massages. If you are interested in claiming your massage under an insurance plan, professional is the way to go (costing around $63 for 60 mins). Student massages are also great if you do not have insurance coverage but would like to relax after a stressful day - best part is that student massages are super reasonable! I highly recommend booking an appointment with Noriko if you have any muscular problems or particular aches and pains you can't get rid of. She is the owner of Otani and will take good care of you (though she charges about $5 more for 60 mins). -

Tried this mascara for the first time this morning and was super impressed!
I put one coat on and there were no clumps. Two coats on...still no clumps. Three coats later...I'm completely and utterly clump-free. Despite the three coats, I still found the mascara very natural-looking and helped enhance my barely there lashes. I found this to be a much better product than the best-selling Maybelline Great Lashes (pink bottle with black cap) and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to try something new.
PS - it also was the first mascara that didn't smudge under my eyes (even in comparison to waterproof mascara)!!!
