Hotpot/shabu shabu

even the “mid” places are so so great to me. Like it’s so fun to customize your own soup. Tonkotsu or miso broth? bok choy or baby corn? Thinly sliced pork belly or shrimp? it doesn’t even really matter it’s literally all good.
and these places are always packed with people and music and have great drinks. Bring a date or as many friends as possible.

Rice & miso (on nevins dwtn bk)

cute, cozy spot with satisfying, inexpensive and tasty onigiri. kind, family oriented service.
they constantly have billie eilish and sade bumping.
closed sunday and monday (learned the hard way which is a lead-in to my next recc, “check maps for hours”).

ramen raijin

in mid december i had the absolute pleasure of enjoying this spicy miso ramen before spending some time at the royal ontario museum (like i do every third tuesday of the month), half-baked ogling at the rocks and minerals exhibit on the third floor.
this spot is by no means some hidden gem, but it’s rare for me to experience a restaurant that lives up to its praise (looking at you two, fresca and craig's cookies) and i was also pleasantly surprised to see cocktails for under $10!
in a cave of mediocre food spots in the yonge/wellesley area, ramen raijin is shiny treasure. they don’t do reservations and the atmosphere discourages campers at tables so operations run smoothly; everything from the demeanour of their staff to the quality of the food radiates excellence… i will be returning and tipping generously <3

FEELING grateful

tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
