| - There are two things I love in life: my husband-to-be, and popcorn. Not necessarily in that order. So when I happened upon this joint during a vacation in Toronto, I just HAD to check it out...and was totally blown away by the quality and variety of the many tasty flavors! You can sample as many as you want; the "savory" flavors are on the right side of the store, and the "sweet" flavors are on the left. Savory flavors include such exotic combinations as Dill Pickle, Salt & Vinegar, Pizza, Sour Cream & Chives, and Buffalo Kick. Sweet flavors include Banana, Watermelon, Blueberry, Piña Colada, and Toffee. Prices are really reasonable; $4 got me a good-sized bag and I was able to have it "Chicago Style" with 3 flavors (I chose Buffalo Kick, Salt & Vinegar, and Spicy Sweet Chili). I spoke a bit with Joseph, who co-owns the store with Caramhel, his wife. She's a pastry chef and the one who came up with all the awesome flavors. Super nice folks and I wish them the best in their new business venture (the store opened at the beginning of July). With the market being completely saturated with gourmet cupcake stores on every block, I really think they're onto something with this unique concept of AMAZING flavored gourmet popcorn!
