I met Pascal, his wife Janaki and their adorable daughter, Lola, back in December. Pascal was telling me about the place to go for coffee: Le Marché St. George, located at the corner of 28th and St. George just three blocks east of Main Street. He, along with his wife and her sister, Klee, opened this beautiful boutique grocery store smack-dab in the middle of the neighbourhood in late-2010. It’s described by Janaki as a ”general store meets Vermeer painting”. || Read more
I think I just found my new favourite breakfast place. After seeing Little Nest from time to time, located a few steps east of Commercial Drive on Charles Street, I finally walked in last Sunday. The place was buzzing full of neighbourhood folk and their stylishly dressed kids.

Want to create a home that gets a ‘wow’ from your friends and family? It’s time to be brave and step out on the design edge – even in the small details. Use colour, pattern and scale to make a statement. Have you thought of using apple green pulls on your bathroom cabinet? How about a standout collection of red lacquer accessories? || Read more
The Block had the privilege of getting to know Japan’s famous competitive eater, Takeru Kobayashi (or as his friends call him, Kobi) while shooting him for a fashion feature for our Spring issue, and we’re happy to count the young star as a friend. When Kobi told us about his campaign to help raise funds for disaster relief in his home country, we knew we had to throw our support behind him wholeheartedly. So that’s why we’re asking you to HELP KOBI HELP JAPAN.
For every Zinio digital subscription The Block sells from now until August, we’ll donate $2 to Kobi’s Red Cross disaster relief fund. PLUS: every new digital subscriber will be entered into a contest to win a free iPad 2.
It’s the least we could do for a good friend – and a great country.
