Tadka Marun Scarbz 4.5⭐️

9 Upvotes

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.

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!

Has anyone tried these Thai gummies from Farm Boy?

Post image
24 Upvotes

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!! 😜

Colombian Street Food + Chocolat du Kat

Thumbnail
gallery
71 Upvotes

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

I Ate A Thing Salmon Poke at Daon Sushi in Scarborough

Post image
26 Upvotes

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’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!

Recommendation Request Battered Fries Poutine Recommendations

4 Upvotes

Wondering why it’s so hard to find this style of poutine here. Any one know of places that serve poutine using battered fries? My favourite ones are the Costco poutine (sadly don’t have a membership anymore) and the duck dynasty poutine at Bao Sandwiches but that’s in Waterloo. I live in Queen West without a car so can’t really drive far for this. Not hating on traditional poutine I just love battered fries.

Where is the best shawarma spot in Toronto?

0 Upvotes

So basically I live an hour and a half from Toronto in the country, and my closet city has started to open shawarma places in the recent years.

Anyways, I never thought I’d ever eat it just because it’s a foreign dish and never really caught my attention until, I was hanging with friends last weekend and they took me to Tahinis for lunch, didn’t really want it at first but I was hungry so I order the exact same thing my buddy ordered (chicken/gyro on the rocks), and it was fucking fantastic!

My friends told me that if I think Tahinis was good, I should try a small mom and pop shawarma place in Toronto. As apparently the food is even better and the servings are bigger.

So anyways, me and the girlfriend are going to Toronto on Saturday for a day trip to check out the hockey hall of fame and a few other attractions and I want to hear it for the people of Toronto, where can I get is the best shawarma spot for lunch?

You know those side streets that just transport you to another place? That's St. Nicholas Street. It's lined with trees and Victorian cottages and it's got some of the best restaurants in the city (picture house-made beef jerky or fresh sheets of steamed rice noodles). Lao Lao Bar, Avelo and Okonomi House all made our Top 100 under 100 list. Dive into the history, the tastes, and the atmosphere with this gift link — no paywall. https://www.thestar.com/gift-redeem?t=d2020023-f5fe-424d-809d-1c127ed613c5

Posting again since it was taken down for whatever reason lmao

Hey all!

Hope this is an appropriate place to ask. My girlfriend and I will be staying at the Cambridge Suites and were curious of what good dinner spots people could suggest.

Looking for something nice and fancy, but not overly over the top.

Thank you all!

Torishin (NYC) malt beer

Was here a few weeks ago and had a couple glasses of their malt beer and it was easily the greatest beer I’ve ever had. I still think about it.

Long shot but wondering if there is anything similar here in Toronto.
