NXNE Take it to the Street!!



This is the second in a 2 part series from the NXNE festival.

I love events to say the least. Unintentionally I was involved in a second one on the same day. After getting out of a NXNE show at the Mod Club I found I was right in the middle of Taste of Little Italy. On College between Bathurst and Ossington there is a large street party that went all weekend. All of the restaurants and other venders pull out their patio and spill into the street. Go for a walk and have some fun. There were many band everywhere and lots of old people dancing.

I got some samosas and it came with a "secret sauce" which was tomato base and amazing. The meat was nice and moist which sometimes gets baked out in samosas.

Where was also some spaducci which is some juicy lamb on a small skewer. You add a little salt and cook it on a special charcoal grill that is exactly the width of the meat on the stick. Amazing little snack right off the grill.

We then stopped at Duff's on College for some beers and to people watch.

Check it out again next year and also check out Taste of the Danforth in August.

Cheers.
