Great food is like great sex. The more you have the more you want.

Welcome Fellow Foodie!

Culinary Slut is the love project of two Toronto-based people who are food-obsessed and afflicted with constant wanderlust. Food is at the centre of everything we love – it decides where we travel and hike, it is how we bond with friends, and it influences how we explore culture. This is a digital foodie haven. On this website, you’ll find great restaurants, delicious recipes and amazing travel finds! We’ve also built a community with our fellow foodies offline though our dinner club and one-on-one indulgences.  We invite you to join us online and in-person.

Singapore

We’ve added Singapore to our list of travel destination blogs!  This complex and fascinating city is an excellent point of entry into South East Asia, and it’s socio-political culture is particularly fascinating for sharp observers.

Grasslands National Park

This is one of Canada’s best kept secrets. A vast wilderness of prairie grasslands and rugged hills, with great hiking and beautiful solitude. The lack of visitors – particularly relative to the immensity of the space – only enhances the emotive power of the place. The grandeur of the immense spaces reaches deep into one’s soul, acting as a balm against the manic pace of modern life and reminding us of nature’s healing powers.

Restaurants

All our best restaurant discoveries!

“You have to have Chili Crab,” a fellow traveller tells us. “It’s super touristy, but so good. Don’t obsess about where you get it; every hawker is good. The real debate is steamed bun or baked bun.”This was no word of a lie; this is a must-do! Crustaceans in Canada have reached prices that are simply out of reach for us financially, so the potential of indulging in seafood while abroad was very exciting for us.A whole mud crab is stir-fried in a thick tomato-based chilli sauce mixed with shredded crab meat and served with steamed mantou buns. One thing we learned quickly is that spicy food in South-East Asia is always actually spicy. We had a mouth burn for a good hour afterwards. The fluffy, sweet buns were a fantastic way to mop up every drop of the tangy, spicy sauce.
