1. Soma Chocolatemaker
Toronto, ON M5A 3C4
Canada
(416) 815-7662
Category:
Chocolatiers and Shops
Neighbourhoods: Distillery District, West Don Lands
I was a New Yorker visiting Toronto and was set on visiting all the good food places in the city!
We almost did not make it to The Distillery District as it was so out of the way ... and we had to walk for quite a bit in the snowy weather to get there…More »
2. Schwartz's
Montreal, QC H2W 1X9

Categories:

Sandwiches,

Tried its smoked meat sandwich. The smoked meat was really tender and succulent! Very pleasantly marinated! But this sandwich spilled with unhealthiness as it was really oily. Was quite messy to eat as well.
The place was a 20-min walk from the…More »
3. Japango Sushi & Noodle Restaurants
Toronto, ON M5G 1P5
Canada
(416) 599-5557
Category:
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
This is a really small sushi bar. I would not recommend parties of more than 4 to visit this place ... as the wait during dinner hours would be painful! But the staff was quite efficient at 'prompting' diners who have finished their meals to pay and…More »
4. Rol San Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 2E9
Canada
(416) 977-1128
Category:
Dim Sum
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
This Yum Cha place is legit! The dim sum served is so comparable to the top-notch dim sum places in Hong Kong.
We ordered the following dishes:
- Century Egg Congee - tasty, unlike most congees which are just bland.
- Shiu Maai - they were HUGE and…More »
5. Marché Jean-Talon
I was in Montreal on a Christmas getaway from New York with a friend - and decided to assemble foodstuff for our Christmas Eve Dinner from this highly-raved about Marché! Visiting this marché was one of the highlights of my one-week long trip in…More »
6. St. Lawrence Market
Toronto, ON M5E 1C4
Canada
(416) 392-7219
Categories:
Farmers Market,
Grocery
Neighbourhoods: St. Lawrence, Downtown Core
This Market was all right ... it had a sort of grimness in its atmosphere.
This was one of my foodie pit-stops in my visit to Toronto. I tried a Peameal bacon on a bun from Carousel Bakery ... as we saw a decent queue forming at its counter.
The bun…More »
7. Juliette et Chocolat
Montréal, QC H2X 2V4
Canada
(438) 380-1090
Categories:
Chocolatiers and Shops,
Desserts
Probably one of the best desserts place I have visited in my life!
This restaurant looked so inviting from the outside - with its homely Christmas decorations and warm lighting ... perfect reprieve from the cold winter weather!
Friend ordered (and I…More »
8. Point G
Montreal, QC H2J 1Y3
Canada

Categories:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,

I have tried out countless macaroon places in New York ... and tried out the supposedly best macaroons in the world - Pierre Herme.
I was not expecting the macaroons from point G to be that legit. But they were. Almost on par with Pierre Herme ... and…More »
9. Brick Street Bakery
Toronto, ON M5A 3C4
Canada
(416) 214-4949
Categories:
Bakeries,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhood: Distillery District
This place is too underrated. I would not have discovered it in my foodie trail across Toronto if not for a big billboard advertising the Bests of Toronto found in a random alley amidst the Distillery District.
Tried its popular Date Rectangle, which…More »
10. King's Noodle Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 2E7
Canada
(416) 598-1817
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Kensington Market, Downtown Core
I ordered "Three Types of Roast Meat combo" with rice.
The portion was massive - could probably feed two moderately hungry people.
(1) Roast duck - too much blubber, could not get more substantial meat from it.
(2) BBQ pork belly - I did not think the…More »
