My two favourite ethnic foods come together as one!

Hey guys!


This past week has been pretty flippin' busy, Ive been running around like crazy trying to complete assignments any which way I can that I almost forgot to write my blog.

Which would be bad for me and for you...trust me.

Alright, I want you to close your eyes and imagine your two favourite ethnic foods for a second....Got it? Great!


My favourite foods in my opinion, of course, would have to be Mexican burritos and sushi. Now, what if I told you you could have both of these foods together as one?


Yes, guys...SUSHI BURRITOS and they're available right here in the Exchange District, how unreal is that? There's a little hole in the wall on Bannatyne Street called Chosabi, they're the ones who have conjured up this magic.

Now, I know what you guys are asking me "Foti, a sushi burrito sounds weird and kinda gross." I thought the same thing, but then I went in and thought I'd take a leap of faith. I'm glad I did, thats for sure.

Since it was my first time I thought I'd get their signature dish which ironically is called "The Chosabi" and holy moly was it awesome.

The Chosabi has the following ingredients: Tuna, salmon, crab meat, cucumber, tempura flakes, spicy aioli, avocado, sushi rice.

All wrapped up in a seaweed wrap and rolled to perfect.

Each sushi burrito runs at about $14 or less and it's flavour explosion right in your mouth.

Don't believe me? Check out the pics below.

Well, that's it for this week guys!

See you next week!

Not your average burger

Hey guys, this week I stopped by one of my favourite burger places in Winnipeg. It's called Nuburger, which is a small Winnipeg based franchise in Osborne Village.

The thing thats great about that's great about these burger is that they're all natural! Yes, ALL NATURAL. Their vegetables and meats are all organic and their meat is fresh and never frozen, which I'm a big fan of.

My go to burger is called the Tropic Thunder. It's a burger bursting at the seams with flavour! The ingredients are  Double-smoked free-range nitrate-free candied BACON, Bothwell cheddar, grilled pineapple, lettuce and low fat chipotle.

Are you still reading this or are you on your way yet? The great thing about this burger is that it's a burger that doesn't make you feel crummy after. I have that issue after eating at most fast food places.

So, if you're craving a burger that sweet and spicy this is the one for you.

Thats all for this week guys.

see you next week!

A Canadian dish

Hey, guys!


So, today I'm going to be talking about one of my all time favourite fast foods. It's a common favourite if you hail from the great white north, much like myself. I call it "Greasy deliciousness" but the more common name for it is "Poutine".

Poutine is french fries with mozzarella cheese curds and hot gravy on top. I can already see you salivating as you read this haha.  Poutine was invented by mistake in the Montreal, Quebec in the late 1950's and when it was born it spread through Canada like wildfire.

Today, you can Poutine almost everywhere McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, you name it. However, the restaurant I went to is a little more over the top than those places. In 2011, Smoke's Poutinerie opened up here in the Exchange District and it's just a quick walk from RRC.

Today I popped in for a little treat after a long and rough week at school, but not just for some regular poutine. The cool thing about Smoke's is that you can get almost any type of topping on your poutine! Hot sauce, pulled pork, bacon, peppers, you name it, they got it. I got the Prime beef deluxe, it has ground beef, sauteed mushrooms, caramelized onions and peas. It was like a warm Thanksgiving dinner on top of poutine. For $10 I had my lunch and dinner combined.

So, if you're thinking about getting yourself a nice plate of poutine this is the place to go! Now, I want to hear from you guys, what's your favourite fast food? Comment below!

Until next week guys!
