Occasional musings from a Left-coast Canadian ExPat in Oxford.
Go. Now. I went to Cru for dinner last night with a foodie friend (which is the best kind of friend to try out a new restaurant with), and wow. What a gem. The front of the house is scarcely bigger than a hallway, but the high ceiling, mirrored upper-wall and light decor left it … Continue reading 2 Word Restaurant Review: Cru
I’m going to be Bowling for Big Brothers on Friday, March 4th. I know y’all wanna pony up some cashola for the kids. All it takes is $10 – so go without the grande mocha-loca happy bunny soy-a-riffic latte for a couple days, and do something good for the world instead. Email me if you’re … Continue reading Rooster!

Went out to 80’s night at Shine last night. Funky little club. Well-stocked and almost reasonably priced premium liquors. The DJs were decidedly unenthusiastic and seemed to have a lot of trouble matching beats and keeping the playlist flowing – but I don’t usually expect a lot from DJs in this city anyway. My major … Continue reading Babies of the 80’s
