Places I’ve eaten, things I’ve tasted.

Kanpai!

Toronto’s first sake brewery (appropriately located in the Distillery District) has hung its sugidama above the door, so I belly up to the Ontario Spring Water Sake Company‘s tasting bar on a sunny afternoon to see what they have to offer.

Photo Friday: Ladurée treats from Geneva

Recently, after many years, I revisited Geneva. One evening, strolling along Cours De Rive, I turned the corner at the roundabout where it meets R. Pierre-Fatio… and my eyes lit up as I spied Ladurée’s golden sign, still glowing faintly in the… Continue Reading →

Agave Y Aguacate

Watching Francisco Alejandri work reveals the care and effort he puts into the preparation of his delicious dishes at Agave Y Aguacate.

Woodlot Works

Woodlot offers baked goods throughout the day as well as a full-service dinner. So of course, I made both a bakery and a restaurant visit!

Calling 416 Snack Bar

Don’t want to eat a lot, but like to try everything on the menu? 416 Snack Bar manages to cater to both needs while putting their own spin on some of Toronto’s ethnically diverse eats. With a short card and all their items hovering around the five-dollar mark, it’s easy to eat your way down the entire menu of nibbles.

Nibbles 'n' Notes Around Town: Sweets Edition

I went on (and on) about Bobbette & Belle‘s raspberry marshmallows when I first tried them. Snagged double-chocolate ones on a subsequent visit (no raspberry that day *sob*) and was quite pleased with these. Really nice chocolate taste that wasn’t too… Continue Reading →

Two-Bite Post: Inigo

Brightly-lit and comfortable, this cute space offers reasonably-priced roasted chickens (grain-fed and free-range), as well as “other species” (as listed on their menu). Everything is separately-priced, allowing you to craft your own meal.

Enoteca Sociale

A few weeks ago, Enoteca Sociale introduced their half-priced enomatic wines on Mondays and Tuesdays. As soon as I digested that bit of news (which was about 2 seconds after I read their tweet), I knew I had to visit… Continue Reading →

Two-Bite Post: The Gabardine

The Gabardine is a polished American bistro with elements that make it more casual: epoxy-lacquered wood tables, white walls, patterned white tin ceiling, mis-matched dishware, and a chalkboard. I stopped in recently and enjoyed some lunch in this bright and airy space.

Comforting Campagnolo

It seems that every couple of weeks another Italian restaurant crops up doing that whole “nonna” cookin’ schtick. These restaurants are like a wave washing upon a shore. A shore littered with the remains of those restaurants’ Italian brethren where their grandmothers may, or may not have, been in the kitchen. Normally, I’d say that Toronto doesn’t need more Italian fare served up. I really would. If only the fare wasn’t so damn good.
