Breakfast
Lunch
Lena, 'cause it doesn't feel like I am in Toronto when I eat there. It’s grand in both atmosphere and eats, and the menu is a little off the beaten path. Cocktail and wine list are superb for a little afternoon delight.
Dinner
It changes all the time, but right now, I have been frequenting Grey Gardens, La Palma, and Pinky’s Ca Phe. For one, they are all in my 'hood ( lame, I know) but I like the walk through Kensington late at night when you are a little tipsy, for example. The first thing I ordered at Grey Gardens was a rutabega dish. I love turnip and rutabega and always wondered why it was not celebrated more on menus. [I like] La Palma for the Miami style ribs and Miami style decor. Menus need to be more like Pinky's.: taste buds exploding, your table and hands messy, and affordable. It’s also super casual and vibey.
Drinks
Archive, because the stellar and expensive wine list causes me to sip slowly.
