The mission is this - My friend K2 and I are on a 'Mission from the Culinary Gods'. We've decided that we live in Toronto - a melting pot city with phenomenal culture and food - and both have cars so we are going to explore as many tasty restaurant offerings as we can. I have been making a list and checking it twice - thank you John Catucci because we are gonna eat there!
First adventure is done - Dr. Laffa in North York - Iraqi-Israeli food that was _to die for_.
Now to decide where to go next. The issue is being healthy and eating in moderation but oh the possibilities are endless!
And now the recipe
