Whoever says Ottawa is a sleepy place hasn’t gone to some of the city’s newer restaurants. Fraser Café is leading the charge of eateries led by confident, young chefs. Two brothers, Simon and Ross Fraser, run the restaurant and the kitchen. Their first venture was so successful they had to close their first location to find [...] Table 17 is one of the many bistros that have sprung up in Leslieville, the latest hot neighbourhood in Toronto. Food is refined (European-style) but the atmosphere is relaxed. I wouldn’t consider it a “special occasion” spot, but with a seasonal menu and focus on local ingredients, I’d likely end up here regularly if I [...]
Le Paradis in Toronto’s Annex area fits the bill for a relaxed, welcoming neighbourhood bistro with solid French dishes — at extremely reasonable prices. A favourite of Toronto Chowhounders, the place is packed on a Friday night with what looks like a lot of regulars. To the left of us, a group of 20-something guys [...]
Doesn’t this look better than your desk?
Doesn’t this look better than a sandwich at your desk?
This definitely looks better than anything at my desk. All of the above is courtesy of Jack of Hearts Bistro, a comfortable, sunny spot in the beautifully restored heritage Lorraine Building in the Beltline.

A restaurant named after a cocktail better make some good ones. Sidecar certainly lives up to that expectation, but it also serves up a helluva dinner deal. Their Grade 8 mojito is a refreshing twist on the original, with Bacardi 8, lime, mint and peach bitters. I knew it was going to be good when [...]
I debated for a while before writing about Skinny Legs and Cowgirls because I don’t like to be anything less than totally positive in an entry. But I think the things that bugged us are fixable and there are enough things going for the “sort of bistro,” as it says on the sign, that [...] |
