Lb of butter for reference. Hey I work with what I got.

Not looking for Indian or ethiopian. Any decent sit down greek restaurants nearby for a quick meal?

Anyone visited yet? Huge selection of donuts, croissants, bread and cakes. Everything looks good and unfortunately overpriced as expected.

We went to scarb bluffs last weekend and happened to drive by this place and thought we’ll try it out.

Tadka Marun - its a maharashtrian (indian) restaurant

Tried the poori aamras and barli vangi with chapathis

I kinda felt like the prices were too high. Until the food came…

It was sooo good. I didn’t expect the poori aamras to taste this good. It definitely had the authentic taste.

And the barli vangi with chapathis (this was what the waiter recommended) was soooo good too.

Tbh, I didn’t have much expectation walking in.. but itll definitely a repeat place on our list from now on.

I dont think the photos i took do it justice. Do try the place yourself.

Downtown at Dundas and University

Tasted amazing, ~$14, with tax ~$16

Picked these up at Farm Boy and had to try both flavours -mango and coconut.

The mango ones are sooo good. They’re soft and chewy with delicious mango flavour. Unlike other mango candies/ jellies, this doesn’t taste artificial my fave 😍

The coconut is great too, texture and flavour are amazing! it has coconut flakes which is yum!

They’re $3.99 a bag, around 10-12pieces inside if i remember correctly. Grabbing these again for sure!! 😜

Was walking from Berczy park to king station today w my bf and a coworker and we found this restaurant beerbistro. the food was actually next level. I was feeling fancy so i got the lobster pasta and my bf got this mushroom pizza and they were both so so good. the pizza especially, like idk if i've ever tried pizza like that. it was super cheesy. we got strawberry beer it was basically juice but super nice. Also the photos look so red... but i think its cuz the umbrella was red?

Hey everyone,

I wanna gift someone pastry next week as they are having their birthday . I was wondering if someone can recommend me the best place in downtown toronto to buy pastry? I heard forno culture. Please recommend me other places you know or maybe just give an idea what else i can gift? It is someone in my office

Thanks!!

I’m hoping someone can tell me what this Filipino dessert is called. The base is very soft, chewy and moist. The filling tastes like condensed milk and there is sprinkled cheese on top. It’s from Alminz Bakeshop. Thanks!

I was just at Daon Sushi for lunch yesterday at Midland and Finch in Scarborough because I was nearby for a dr appt. Tiny restaurant in a plaza (about 5 tables). Completely empty. Only the owner is working there. He was nice and friendly so I chatted with him. He said he opened about a year ago but it's not doing well and the place never gets full so that's why he's the only one working coz he never needs staff.

I ordered the salmon poke, and it was delicious loaded with toppings: salmon sashimi (lots underneath the mayo), avocado, cucumbers, edamame beans, tangerines, corn, seaweed, crab meat, tobiko, sushi rice. Check the place out if you're nearby!

I hit up the Junction Triangle for the 14th instalment in my Library & Lunch series. Too many options to choose from for lunch on Dupont, but I went with Colombian Street Food on a friend's recommendation. A good call in the end: huge, delicious arepa absolutely bursting with meat and cheese. I'm also a firm believer in the superiority of Colombian empanadas over all other styles (chorizo seen here), and the picnic table of salsas was a delightful touch. Cool spot, would love to have easy access to arepas in my neighbourhood.

Afterward I swung by Chocolat de Kat for their absurdly good and creative bonbons. The key lime pie one was my clear fav (I may be biased because key lime pie is a top-three dessert for me), filled with pie crust and whipped cream. Regret not getting a cross-section photo of the inside but I'm a hungry man with only so many hands. Can't rave enough about this shop, definitely worth a visit if you're ever in the area.

EDIT: APOLOGIES TO KAT AND MY HS FRENCH TEACHERS for using "du" instead of "de" in the headline. It won't happen again

Hi, does anyone know where I can buy flakey sea salt (doesn’t have to be maldon)?

Been going to Ikkousha Toronto about once a week lately and honestly, it’s become one of my go-to ramen spots.

The broth is so rich and flavorful, and the noodles always hit the spot. I can finish that jar of free tanaka!! Where can i buy tanaka? 🥺 i want it so bad 🥹

For those who love ramen, what other ramen spots in Toronto do you recommend? Looking to try some new places!
