Neighbourhoods: Little Italy, Bickford Park

5.0 star rating
  11/22/2008

Generally my favorite stop after brunch or lunch in Little Italy, Dolce Gelato offers everything you could want in a gelato place.

I usually order a medium cup which comes with two flavors.  The past few visits I usually get something citrus and…More »

Toronto, ON M5S 1X2
(647) 350-5602
4.0 star rating
  11/17/2008

People who know me know that there is little in this life that makes me happier than a little fro-yo.  Even just saying "fro-yo" perks me up a bit.  And in Toronto, where there is a wealth of ice cream and gelato (YES) shops, it's nice to see fro-yo…More »

Neighbourhoods: University of Toronto, Downtown Core

4.0 star rating

Invariably on hot summer nights, the line to Greg's snakes out the door and down the sidewalk.  The popularity of this homemade ice cream parlor just can't be reckoned with.  And frankly, there really aren't any fair contenders in that fight.

Category: Coffee & Tea

4.0 star rating
  12/1/2008 First to Review

A very sweet cafe tucked away on a quiet(er) stretch of Harbord, Wild Thing is one of those places I keep forgetting I need to go back to.  With a laid-back atmosphere, charming staff and comfortable spaces, I need to make it back sooner than later!

Categories: Bakeries, Desserts

Neighbourhood: The Beach

4.0 star rating
  11/30/2008

A pleasant hike from the beach itself, you can make a lovely day by going to Life is Sweet and getting some tasty cupcakes to bring to the water with you.  This tiny shop is on the very easternmost edge of what I would consider the Beaches, but it's…More »

 6. Solferino Cafe - CLOSED

Category: Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt

Neighbourhoods: St. Lawrence, Downtown Core

4.0 star rating
  12/7/2008

I'm sadly not in the area enough to warrant a stop in to Solferino, and gelato alone can rarely justify a trip this far astray from my usual stomping grounds.  However, if I'm in the neighborhood for some reason, I am always sure to stop in for some…More »

Neighbourhood: The Annex

4.0 star rating
  11/26/2008

The best thing you can do on your way out to dinner or drinks is to swing in here an pick up a big bag of mixed candies.  Everyone will be your best friend for the rest of the night.  Try to get at least one piece of the crazy salted…More »

4.0 star rating
  11/30/2008 First to Review

I used to have the very good fortune of working in the same neighborhood as Daniel et Daniel, a wonderful source for gourmet catering and cold and hot dishes to go.

A sign of a great swanky party is a spread that features tarts with the signature…More »

Category: Bakeries

Neighbourhood: Dovercourt

4.0 star rating
  11/20/2008 First to Review

Having a delicious bakery that is open both early and late in your neighborhood is wonderful.  If you want to grab a coffee before you commute to work, it's open.  If you want to meet up for a slice of carrot cake at 10:30pm with a friend, it's open.…More »

Cobs Bread is a very tempting stop that is hard to avoid while you walk through the Annex along the north side of Bloor.  With dozens of tempting bread varieties, as well as specialty pastries and desserts, sometimes you just need to pop in and see…More »

Ahh Futures, the classic spot for all of your cake and beer needs.  While I spend a larger amount of time at its sister bar directly attached, Labyrinth, I am still at heart a Future Bakery fan, and I have the cake/coffee punch cards to prove it.

I laughed long and hard when I found out that the business that was going in the corner where Aroma now sits was going to be a coffee shop.  What I've termed the Annex "coffee klatch corner" includes a Starbucks (NE corner), a Second Cup (SE corner)…More »
