Popped in here on a chilly evening, lured in by the warm promise of organic eats fogging up their shop windows. Or maybe it was just condensation. At any rate, Camros Organic Eatery is a solid stop for 'healthy' eats that fills you up without leaving…More »

I enjoyed a decidedly non-vegan breakfast here late one afternoon.  The owner, Maggie, called me "baby" no less than six times as we reviewed the specifications of my bacon, eggs and toast.  I was charmed.  It's too bad a place like this with such an…More »

Meat-eaters take heed, you will like Vegetarian Haven.

VH is tucked away in Baldwin Village, and is pretty easy to miss. It has a lot of cred amongst hardcore veg-heads, and it doesn't hurt that it's right next door to the Toronto Vegetarian…More »

Utopia's still got it. Stopped here on an overcast Saturday afternoon to grab a late lunch and I was thoroughly satisfied by the Utopian experience. Our server picked up on my reluctance to grab a beer, and adroitly suggested a Caesar. Yes! Because I…More »

Be ye warned, you are entering a cellphone free zone at Annapurna. This pin-drop-silent establishment really does have a calming effect on visitors, lulling you into a sense of calm and obliterating your sense of self in an almost Zen way. This was…More »

Neighbourhoods: Discovery District, Downtown Core

4.0 star rating

This place is a recipe for fiscal disaster. It's a cafeteria style buffet, where you are charged by weight (your foods', not your own). This is easily forgotten as you pick out nibbles and soon you are walking up the cashier, hefting your plate --as…More »

Neighbourhood: Brockton Village

3.0 star rating
  Update - 2/3/2011

So I returned for mock pork with the esteemed Crystal H; it was definitely a strange experience. As per usual there was no one else in the gigantic space. We were waved to a table by a young girl clearly filling a familial obligation, that is to say,…More »

I've walked by Urban Herbivore many times but this was the first time I ever manned up and ordered something from Kensington Market's umpteenth vegetarian resto. With a little moral support from Ben "Mr. Halifax" B we stopped here for lunch.
