Recommendations for Toronto
Hey All!
Currently, I live in Cyprus (I am here for 2 years- done with the 1st year, one more to go) and I do a lot of home-based artisan baking. I will be visiting Toronto soon with my girlfriend from Michigan. I would love to hear any recommendations regarding good restaurants, pizzerias, bakeries, cookware/baking supplies shops that are in the area...
Thanks,
Hazim
Hazim, welcome to Toronto. There are many, many excellent restaurants in Toronto-- one of the best places in North America. To recommend a restaurant would be difficult, considering the huge variety available. An excellent resource for you would be Toronto.com or Torontolife.com. There is no excellent pizza in Toronto (at least, not until I open my own place!). The best is probably Terroni, although i would likely get arguments here. Thuet Bistro Bakery is worth a visit for something to eat and fantastic bread. For cookware/ bakeware the best places are the restaurant supply places that you can find .on yellowpages.ca. Any other questions you have i'll be happy to help out.
