orange iced tea

Downtown adventure with Rui ;D

First, we spotted the mythical new TTC trains. My internship co-workers wouldn't believe it without photographic evidence.



IT LIGHTS UP! Easily impressed I am.

But onto the actual reason why we headed down, for some brunch at Utopia Cafe :]

Patio seats ;D
Weather was a tad hot though, wish the walls aren't there to block any breezes.

Rui discovered the place due to it's poutine being featured on blogto, so obviously we had to see what the hype was about:

First thought: HUGE PORTION! We each ate half of it and was already full. It is really good though, especially the fresh cheese curds that actually stretch as you pull the individual fries apart *u*

The portions for the main course is huge as well e_e

Rui's chicken and avocado burrito at the back and my breakfast burrito in the front. Om nom nom, only had room for the salad though, the actual burrito and rice are being shafted to monday and tuesday lunch. Stomach space is a more precious commodity than money xD


Pepper plant behind us ;D I suspect the jalapeno pepper in my burrito was once in those planters.


Rui's pile of leftovers. She was beast enough to finish half of the burrito.

Afterwards we headed to Orange Alert, a cafe by the AGO.

My orange iced tea on the left and Rui's blueberry lemonade on the right.
Sooooo good. They're not kidding when they say freshly squeezed, we watched in amazement at the barista juiced oranges and lemons behind the counter. I want kitchen appliances for my wedding *hinthint* xD


Nice quite environment~

and lastly, Jetpens order came! ;D

Technically only the turquoise drafting pencil is from jetpens. Rui is nice and gave me a Natto MBDM to try, and the Sakura Micron is the result from a moment of weakness at Curries~
