Kensington Market Taco Tour

Thinking of doing a walk-through of Kensington and hitting up a bunch of taco places (one taco per restaurant). If you were going to go a few different ones, which would you hit up, and what's your favourite taco there?

Affordable Rooftop Resto’s/Bars with a CN Tower View

Hi! I’ll be going to Toronto this December and I’m looking for an affordable rooftop resto or bar with a CN tower view for birthday pics since most places I’ve looked at so far are so expensive. Preferably a short photoshoot I can do indoor because I am going in the winter. Thanks!

Finally tried Shawarma Empire on Lawrence

God damn it was delicious.

I had a chicken shawarma sandwich and asked for extra hummus and tabouleh on the side, which came with a couple of extra turnip pieces.

Also, they give you the top part of the pita that they cut off to fill the sandwich.

This was one of the few genuinely spicy shawarmas I've had. Whatever seasoning they use is crazy good. I actually saw some chili flakes in there.

Japan sushi grade

Born and raised in Hawaii but moved to South Dakota since my partner is in the Air Force. Going to Toronto for the week of Christmas. I really miss some really amazing sushi, chutoro, otoro, maguro sashimi or nigiri sushi. Any recommendations in Toronto?

Halal ramen

Hey guys, I've been meaning to find a halal ramen restaurant in Toronto for almost a week now but can't find anything. I understand that there's a lot of vegan options but are there no meat friendly options too?

Best places to buy quality seafood in downtown Toronto

A long time ago I had these giant shucked oysters at St Lawrence Market called Washburn Island oysters. Now I only see regular oysters at the fish market there. Does anyone have a recommendation for a place that sells large or high quality raw oysters? Not dining at a restaurant, but a place that sells them individually but would allow me to take them home.

Also looking for recommendations for sashimi grade fish and such. My go to is Yuzuki unless anyone has any suggestions. Kingyo Fisherman Market used to be good but their variety has really gone down while prices have gone up, unsure why.

Thank you!

Bacon wrapped filet mignon at 12AM from York St Keg

Left the Jhene Aiko concert at SBA which ran until 1130 then came straight here for our late night eats fix. Usually this late I'd order off the happy hour menu but decided to go big on this blessed Friday night. This was my first time ordering this is a long time and it slapped in my current state. Perfectly cooked to med rare and the garlic mash was hitting.. Cheers to the weekend 🙌🏾

Does any Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto/GTA have banh duc nong?

Just found out about banh duc nong, a savoury rice flour pudding. Saw it in a Youtube video about Hanoi specialties: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdPutKgWVCE

Then found a video of how to make it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdPutKgWVCE

But is there anywhere in Toronto that serves this? Want to try it at least once before attempting to make this. Seems so comforting and perfect as the temperature drops.

Asian waiters asking for tips.

This has already happened to me over several years,first it was occasionally,now it seems to happen every time I eat at a Asian establishment,mostly Chinese food.At the end of a meal when I ask for the bill they will hand it to me and ask to please tip.I even had one tell me I did not give enough tip.I usually tip 2-3$ and my meals are usually under 50$.

My question is do others have the same experience?If you are Asian,Chinese do you still get asked? Typically in Asian countries people do not tip,so I'm wondering if that's the reason why they ask for tips,Or because Asians don't tip in Asian restaurants.

Pistachio cream filled donuts?

I was in Vancouver recently and had this amazing donut from Breka that had pistachio cream on the inside. It was needless to say DELICIOUS. Here is a link of it: https://www.instagram.com/p/ChuiDLnrYBJ/?igsh=Z2pmMHJpaW42OHM1

Hoping someone knows of something similar in downtown Toronto!
