This family-run vegan restaurant is a favourite, especially for takeout. We often buy their samosas for a picnic, a quick snack or to bring to parties. If you are eating in, order the vegetable thali.

If you're looking for a gritty bar for playing pool, watching sports or listening to loud live music in the evening then Duffy's is it. One of Toronto's oldest pubs, I'm told.

This is new to our neighbourhood and quite an exciting addition: a restaurant/bar and a live music venue to boot. Check out their side patio and later head inside for some great music.

Although it's called Paris Bakery it's actually a Portuguese bakery. You must try the 'natas' (pronounced 'notosh') which are custard tarts. They are not pretty but they are delicious.
