It's something that shouldn't happen, and it made me question the attention to cleanliness and quality control. Unfortunately, it was hard to enjoy the rest of the meal after that. The food itself was just okay--not terrible, but nothing memorable or worth coming back for. Overall, I left feeling disappointed and hope the restaurant takes steps to improve both its food quality and its standards for food safety.

Went to Rollz last night in Ajax…read more A lil hidden gem for ice cream in our area Huge selection and menu of rolled ice cream which is a treat for many in Asia Tons of toppings to chose from Like that they have boba beads from mango to lychee My wife had the Nutella and banana base ice cream and topped it with strawberries and brownie I had the caramel Kitkat base They give you two sticks of Kitkat with it I bumped up the chocolate content with brownies and chocolate chips before topping it with a graham cracker Really tasty ice cream Prices are reasonable Would definitely go back again

We like to go here for the different flavours, especially the specialty ones…read more I have had the mango as well as the Mava Jalebi and loved them both. There is usually only one person working, so it can take a long time to get your order. The entrance has a very strong smell, which had few of us coughing. If they can fix that smell, and have one more staff member, it would be great

I can't believe what I've been missing for so long! All the ice cream is handpacked, and mostly from Kawartha Dairy or Central Smith. I'm pretty sure they have more than 31 flavours, including some exotic and fun varieties. It's available in cones, cups, shakes, and floats, with various sauces and toppings. There's something for everybody! I had a double scoop in a cup ($6.50) with Creamy Coconut and Grapenut (a favourite since childhood). The ratio of grapenuts to ice cream was just right and it tasted really good. One taste of the coconut and my brain was instantly transported to a tropical beach. Mmm! okay, maybe the smell of the coconut reminded me of tanning lotion, hence the beach thought. Or maybe it was just that good that it triggered my imagination. Try it for yourself!

On this visit, however, I had an Affogato, an Italian coffee based ice cream drink. It was refreshing and delicious. This place is in the process of revamping their business and product offerings and currently have a couple of artsy vendors operating out of the same space. Nice giftware. They'll be carrying a lot of specialty teas once everything is done.

I didn't know that this place existed in my neighbourhood. It is one in the same with Brewliscious…read morebtw. Same shop. *This place is K-Cup heaven* The back wall is covered in K cup singles up for purchase from one side to the other at just 0.70 each. Additionally some special features of this place is that they have cake slices from Cheesecake Factory including cookies and cream, and Reese's Pieces, Cinnabon in double-chocolate. They also have ice cream scoops (year-round) and soft-serve ice cream in the warmer weather. Unfortunately it wasn't available for the oddball like me who didn't care about the weather and still wanted some soft serve ice cream on a winter day. There is Cafe-type seating indoors which is nice if you want to grab coffee or ice cream with a friend. They also had some free cookies for customers which was a nice touch! I recommend this place.

What a beauty! Minimal seating, but they make up for it in heart. Very welcoming staff, and space…read more They lose a star only because they used to have a masala coffee that I absolutely loved and they don't make it anymore. If the owners are reading this: PLEASE BRING IT BACK. They also had other unique caffeinated inventions but I don't see them as often. That being said, their main stay is truly their gelato. And that has to stay. There are traditional flavours like cheesecake, but then you also got a Ceylon Ginger Biscuit all on display just being so enticing. It's practically begging for me to take it home. Which I did and loved it. They also have sandwiches which I haven't tried, but again they are unique and bring in those South Asian elements. Definitely worth trying.

If it gets too busy, you'll have to wait outside. Inside is nice and clean looking, very aesthetically pleasing. There were a lot of staff working too. I ordered a double scoop of the Maple Walnut and New York Cheesecake ($9 + tax). I really enjoyed the Maple Walnut, it was good. Had a good combination of both flavours. The New York Cheesecake was OK. It didn't really taste like the cake, but I still enjoyed whatever the taste was. The toppings that they put on top was good. It was like some crunchy crumble. Overall, I'd come back and try out the other flavours. Looking on their website, they have so many other flavours which weren't available at the time. One thing I would have liked to see was some outdoor seating or something. I had to stand outside the shop to eat my gelato.

I tried their salted caramel cupcake and it was delicious. It was a great surprise to look up their Yelp business page and see the variety of things they offer. I also had a great conversation with everyone who was there, including the baker. I am not a huge fan of baked goods in general, but this place had my mouth watering for more. I can't wait to stop buy and try more of their stuff this weekend.

I 'forced' myself to have multiple visits before I reviewed it. I know, cupcakes are tough…read more I went to Cupcake Junkie twice to get cupcakes for a fam jam. I ordered a dozen fresh ones and they were fantastic. I also bought day-old cupcakes and there were also fantastic! Don't shun the day-olds! The variety isn't as good as the fresh ones, but I didn't hear one person complain as they were quickly devoured. What I enjoy the most about their cupcakes is that the cake isn't sweet, the icing and filling take care of the sweet. I'm not saying the cake is blah, I'm saying the cake not being sugary balances them so your teeth don't hurt. The 3rd visit was to pickup my Valentine's Day treats! I ordered 6 vanilla minis, 6 chocolate minis and a heart shaped Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake. As a chocolate addict, I thought I would like the chocolate ones more, but the vanilla minis stole my heart. The picture of the cake is deceiving. I expected it to be just a heart shaped cookie, but it really is a cake! The best way to describe it is a fluffy cookie; it was freaking awesome. I should've got one for myself. ;) My last visit was for a light supper. I had some time to kill, so I ordered a pulled pork sandwich on a kaiser combo and took a seat. It's a very cozy venue, but not crowded. All of the tables were clean and the large windows let lots of natural light in. I had a coffee while I waited and they brought me a housemade marinara sauce and flatbread. Delightful! It was warmed up and had a little heat; I could've eaten the whole thing, but I had to leave room for my sandwich. Their coffee is fantastic; it comes from a local roaster called Trebilock.The kaiser was fresh and the pork was slow-cooked to perfection. The coleslaw on the sandwich was a nice twist. It was crisp and saucy, just how I like it. It was a great meal. I'd love to try their other sandwiches! I'm not done! I got a combo, so it's cupcake time! So many choices, but their Facebook posts convinced me the try the Cupcake of the Month. Each month they have a creative cupcake featured that you must try. From all of their cupcakes I've tried, my favourites are Red Velvet, Banana Chip, Maple Bacon, Chocolate Mint and Vanilla. I haven't tried them all, but I haven't had one I didn't like! The warm weather is coming, so I know I'll be back for their Kawartha Dairy Ice Cream! A welcome addition to Whitby. It's got great food and friendly service. They will make you a cupcake junkie!

Belaggio's has been a reliable place for takeout Italian food in Durham region…read more Word of warning that there are no customer washrooms available in this establishment. Known for their excellent arancini rice balls, they serve arborio rice balls that are stuffed with ground veal in tomato sauce, sweet peas and mozzarella cheese. They have quite a menu that focuses on pasta and hot sandwiches. I love all types of pasta from white Alfredo sauce pasta, to rosé tomato-cream sauce pasta, or Bolognese sauce pasta, or tomato-basil pasta. They also have coffee, cannoli and gelato. On any given day customers drop by for their chicken parm, eggplant parm, ceasar salad, Calabrese, veggie, ham and cheese grilled panini, meatball or chicken or veal sandwiches. Be sure to add hot or sweet peppers, provolone or mozzarella cheese, onions, eggplant and mushrooms to give your sandwich extra flavours. I added green peppers to my veal sandwich and a very important point to add much needed extra sauce! The second veal sandwich I ordered was very dry, almost tasteless and had practically no tomato sauce on it. Wasn't sure if it always comes this dry? I hope not but am glad I asked for extra sauce on the second sandwich. Much needed! Their gelato is worth tasting if you have a sweet tooth.
