For the family theme this week I decided that I would photograph a dish that tends to remind us of time spent with family. By that I mean a turkey dinner of course, and hot dang was it ever delicious! 

This special is offered every day at the Michigan Diner on Manning Road. The restaurant was completely packed tonight and business there was flourishing. This made it difficult to find a lot of photo opportunities without patrons getting in the frame. However, I think I managed to pull it off. 

For the event theme this week I decided to visit Craft Heads Brewing Company on University Ave. 

This evening they were holding an event called “Foodie Pop-Up” where they were selling $5 tacos. It was awesome... 

The two employees let me photograph them and the guy on the right side had a particularly awesome moustache. Craft Heads has 30 taps which all feature beers that are brewed in-house, and the selection of beers changes every single day. They also have a mini espresso bar open for coffee lovers during morning hours! 

For the black and white theme this week I decided to try something a little less exotic than in the past. 

TOAST on Erie Street had the perfect waffle to photograph. However, I had to sift through quite a few shots to pick the one with the best lighting before doing some editing. I also think that the drawing above the flowers worked well for black and white. 

The gloomy rainy day combined with black and white paintings in the restaurant made this the ideal spot. These photos were also taken on Halloween, and all the waitresses were wearing spooky contacts in their eyes. 

This week I thoroughly enjoyed tackling some Italian cuisine at Wineology in Walkerville. I spent a long time searching online trying to find the best restaurant in Windsor for the architecture building theme. After much searching I decided Wineology was the spot. I think my photos make that quite self explanatory. 

My favourite photo is the shot of the front of the restaurant from across the street, in the rain, under an umbrella, which added an aesthetic quality that you could not get any night of the week. I also really like the way the wine rack looks in the shot of the glass of cola and the overhead lights.
