Love my genuine leather two dollar shoes I just picked up!

Every Friday night I join Tom’s family in their traditional pizza night!  Nice weather means shifting from gathering in Milton at Tom’s sisters house to the family “camp” in Colchester.  Camp is code for summer house down by the lake.  The setting is unbelievably pretty and we snuck away for a quick photo sesh on the rocks by the beach.  Cool breeze without a tinge of chilly.  PERFECTION.  Next Friday will be a different scene as we’ll be at the hospital meeting Amanda’s baby girl/Tom’s new niece!  YAY!

Occasion:

Daily Planet, Burlington

 

Daily Planet has a charming atmosphere and is tucked away between two side streets off of Church. For me, it started off as a great place to get awesome cocktails with friends, and turned into a culinary top runner.  It is a spot locals have known about for years and is gaining more recognition, especially for it’s taco tuesdays that is always a bit of a surprise (generally, they rock!).  It is fine dining without ridiculous prices.  I was greatly pleased with the filling sliders and banana, peanut butter, candied bacon, caramelized sugar creme brûlée on a date with a friend.  In the past I’ve had the duck confit poutine which is a must try for those looking to indulge!  Some have said that the cuisine has declined since getting a new chef, but I think there is something on the menu for everyone!  Worth a try to find your personal favorites 🙂
