My only other vegan dining experience was at Fresh on Bloor - and I must say, Cruda kicks their ass!  I had a Dealathon voucher in hand for $30 worth of food (I paid $15).  

While their portion sizes are nowhere near as big as Fresh, the quality is…More »

Went to Biff's Bistro with 2 of my co-workers today.  Yesterday I almost fell into a bout of depression thinking about how the weather might've affected our lunch plans, but they were troopers and made it to work!  Yay!  This was my first…More »

Was here a few weeks ago with some friends who all agreed that the Keg is THE place to go for the best steak in the world.  Being a bit of a cynic as I am, I decided to try it out and draw my own conclusion as everyone's tastes and palettes are…More »

I have passed by Vagabondo many times, and I finally got to dine here.  It is located close to the St. Lawrence Market.  The decor is trendy, they played a good mix of music, and have "party rooms" that are separated with red curtains.

Parking is…More »

Service really sucks at Hank's.  If you're short on time do not come here on your lunch break or you'll literally have to eat, ask for the bill and pay the bill all within a five minute time period.  This is a place to go only when you are not tight…More »

Winterlicious round... Oh I lost count!  Have always been a fan of Trevor Kitchen & Bar.  This is my third time dining here.

I must say that I must lower my initial review of the restaurant as the food seemed uncharacteristic and out of the norm.…More »

Tried the "World Famous" Peameal Bacon Sandwich today.  Ringing in at almost $6.  It was a sandwich made with a bun and a generous serving of peameal bacon wedged in between.  That's where it stops.  Condiments can be found toward the side of…More »

Two of my managers treated me out to lunch at O&B Cafe Grill today.  

The reason why it only gets 3 stars, is because it is incredibly loud.  If you want to sit down and be able to have a conversation without having to enunciate and scream, then this…More »

Had the veal and eggplant sandwich today at Mustachio... and it was yummy!  The warnings are correct, the sandwich is quite filling and I could only finish half.  I also got a Greek Salad as I needed my veggie fix.  For around $5 the salad is of a…More »

It was only last week that I was here for my birthday dinner, courtesy of fellow Yelp Elite Karl R.  Earlier this week, I came with 2 co-workers for their Summerlicious lunch.

Upon entering we noticed that each table already had bread baskets sitting…More »

Came to Wine Bar with my co-workers for some Summerlicious lunching.  The restaurant itself is rather small, with the bar being the focal point of the restaurant.   It is owned by the same owner as Hank's and the Great Burger Kitchen.

Our orders were…More »

My first experience with Stonemill Bakehouse was at a Metro grocery store.  I bought a loaf of their Flax & Honey Bread and was instantly hooked.  Savory AND low on calories.  It wasn't before long that I made my way down to their actual storefront…More »

This is my go-to place in the St. Lawrence Market when I'm looking for cheese.  

This past weekend, I was looking for Smoked Mozzarella and Fontina cheese.  They even saved me the work of grating it myself.  

The boys behind the counter are all very…More »

Origin, where do I start?  I came here with a friend pre-opera to grab a bite.  I've walked by it many times, and knew that this was chef Claudio Aprile's second triumph in Toronto (the first being Colborne Lane just across the street) and had heard…More »
