Being someone who bakes religiously, I was often chastised for not going to The Queen of Tarts for a hit of sweet since I moved to Toronto. Truth be told, I wouldn't call myself a tart fan or a fan of traveling all the way to the west-end just to…More »

Atmosphere: Lovely. In the old Courthouse, the…More »

This 3-level restaurant cafe complete with a third floor patio is a great place for dessert, coffee and chatting among friends.

Surprise Finds (7)More specifically (since the title only allowed a max. length of 64 characters), "Places I Would Never Think I'd Find Myself In Let Alone Giving It a Great Review". |
Cup O'Cake (5)The idea of this list is to [hopefully] expand it as I discover more list-worthy cupcakes since I don't normally go out and buy them.
