"Find it: Yorkdale Mall at 3401 Dufferin Street, The PATH Richmond Adelaide Centre Food Court at 121 Adelaide Street West, 1099 Yonge St, and 780 Queen Street West; @nadegetoronto; nadege-patisserie.com. The lowdown: If you can’t get to Paris to satisfy your macaron craving, get thee to Nadège. The legendarily pretty confections at this bright, contemporary bakery are arguably the best in the city."

"Nadège Patisserie has a variety of picture-perfect desserts|© Nadège Patisserie. Day-date dessert rendezvous are highly encouraged at Nadège Patisserie, Toronto’s premier spot for delicate French macarons. Light and crisp with a creamy ganache middle, these addictive bites are never overwhelmingly sweet."

Serving gourmet bites that’ll make you feel like you’re visiting Europe, this spot leans into every special occasion with cute menu themed items that just ooze deliciousness."

"If you’re looking for a good ice cream to try, then Ed’s has to be on your list. Ed is an actual guy who started it all at the Beaches location back in 2000. Since then, Toronto has been blessed with four Ed’s locations serving up small-batch, homemade ice cream that is done on site and with the purest of ingredients."

"You’ve probably heard of Ed’s Real Scoop before – they’re one of the best ice cream spots in Toronto!. They also serve up amazing gelato, including classic flavours like Espresso or more fun flavours like Red Hot Chile Chocolate or Green Apple. You can find them in The Beaches, Leslieville, Roncesvalles, and Mimico."

"They’ve been serving up handmade, premium ice cream in Toronto since 2000. The flagship location in the Beaches is my personal fave, but you’ll also find them in Leslieville, Roncesvalles and Mimico!. Trust me, this is small-batch ice cream and gelato worth trekking to (and waiting in line for)."

"Chocolate raspberry is my personal favourite, but I’ve yet to meet a gelato bar I don’t like from Bar Ape. I still remember spotting their little blue truck at Trinity Bellwoods back in 2014. I fell in love immediately — really, one bite and I was HOOKED."

"A post shared by Fugo Desserts (@fugodesserts) on Apr 12, 2019 at 9:11am PDT. Fugo has a signature Cookie Monster cone (that’s two scoops of Cookie Monster ice cream, mini chips ahoy, and an oreo cone) that’s part of every foodie’s feed. But the Insta-worthy ice cream doesn’t stop there."

"Came here for their tropical mango+pineapple soft serve, personally I didn't like the texture. It was airy, kinda fluffy like whipped."

"If there’s one place that does Indian desserts right, it’s Bengali Sweets & Restaurant. You’ll come here to start with their samosas but you’ll really be here to pick up a box or two of sweets. Not sure what to try?"

"More like “Ooh Bae,” this appropriately titled cookie creation is from The Night Baker. This ube cheesecake cookie is filled with ube jam to give you that sweet kick. Address: 825 College StreetHours: Tuesday to Thursday from 12 pm to 8 pm, Friday and Saturday from 12 pm to 10 pm, and Sunday from 12 pm to 7 pm, Mondays closed."

"A post shared by The Night Baker (@thenightbakerto) on Mar 27, 2020 at 9:28pm PDT. The Night Baker is bringing back the limited red velvet cookie which will be available until Valentines Day. They also have a gooey Choco Oats cookie with Beglian chocolate, cinnamon, and oatmeal that will melt in your mouth."

"What do you get when two chemists turn into night-time bakers?. Really good cookies, that's what. Pull apart these lab experiments from College."

"Located in the heart of Kensington Market, this small and sweet bakery fuses French and Japanese techniques. The must-try item on the menu at Little Pebbles is definitely their croissants which are baked in-house with natural, high quality French & Japanese ingredients. The Raspberry Matcha Croissant and Black Sesame Croissant are the perfect fusion of European and Asian flavours."

"A post shared by Little Pebbles (@littlepebblesto) on Mar 29, 2020 at 7:05am PDT. This charming bake shop sells the cutest little treats, hence the name. Try the Sakura macaron for cherry blossom season, or one of their many other tasty treats."

"This subtle Japanese bakery in Kensington offers three signature cakes, all delicious and beautiful. The strawberry shortcake looks straight out of a picture book, while the chiffon cake is the black sesame dessert of your dreams."

"The Lodge is one of the best bear bars in Toronto – ie if you wanna just hang out but don't fancy being tied up in a swing and/or peed/spat on etc(!) then this is the ideal alternative to the Black Eagle. The Lodge is the upstairs bar to the O'Grady's Restaurant – another gay gem on the Church Street gay scene. Friday is the best night to come here when they have one of the best Bear parties in the city."

"V’s Caribbean is a vegan restaurant offering Jamaican and Caribbean dishes. Their food is comforting, hearty, healthy, and delicious. There are an assortment of dishes like curry soy chunks, maple jerk tofu, callaloo, curry chickpea & potatoes, and more."

"Phosome is a veg-friendly Vietnamese restaurant in Cabbagetown. They have a separate vegan menu so you can ensure that everything is prepared without animal products. Try the vegan pho, spring rolls, or spicy soup."

"Here you have many vegan options to choose from such as breadwhiches, salads bowls, soups, baked sweets, smoothies, and juices. This healthy deli-style restaurant also allows you to build your own bowl. An added bonus of Urban Herbivore is that all their takeout materials (straws, cups, cutlery) are made out of corn, their bowls are made out of sugarcane, and their bags are made out of recycled content."

"If you are looking for fast food that is made of ingredients that you can pronounce, in general, you are out of luck. However, chef Stephen Gardner foresaw a need and in 2005 opened up Urban Herbivore in a small restaurant in Kensington. They now have two popular restaurants, including in the Eaton Centre."

"Urban Herbivore is a long time healthy vegan fast food spot in Kensington Market. A lot of their menu is gluten-free, and they also try their best to offer local and organic ingredients. They also try to use less waste and have initiatives to help the environment."

"This is a dine-in and all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant overseeing Yonge-Dundas Square that offers iPad-ordering (really, how great is the future?) for its large menu selection. Not only do they serve Japanese cuisine, they also dabble in Thai nowadays, so you can grab a pad thai easily from the menu. But the best part is that they offer 10% discounts to students."

"One of the better sushi spots in Leaside rolls out the buffet red carpet every day from 11 am to 3 pm. Adults dine for $12.99 (add $2, Friday to Sunday), while kids’ pricing is divided into three age groups priced from $1.99 to $8.99. Start with the tofu and tempura appetizers and work your way through a tantalizing array of sushi and hand rolls."
