"School meets diner vibes at this adorable brunch spot on Dundas West. I’d say Old School is definitely up there on my list of the best brunch places in Toronto – the food here is absolutely incredible!. Their Blueberry Hill Pancakes are life – definitely some of the best pancakes I’ve ever had in Toronto."

"Dundas West has become THE neighbourhood to go for brunch in Toronto. Not far from Trinity Bellwoods Park, there are a number of fantastic brunch spots, so if the line is too long at one spot, you’re close to another great place. ALSO READ: Best Parks in Toronto"

"Large, blazing patio heaters keep everyone warm on a wraparound patio at this Canary District bar and restaurant that serves brunch, lunch and dinner, all accompanied by locally brewed beer."

"One thing we love about this Church Street institution, which sprawls over three floors, is that despite its ample space, it still manages to feel cozy—the vintage rugs, exposed brick, and wrought-iron details help sustain the familiar feeling. And all this room makes it a popular stop for groups with an appetite. They come in droves for the restaurant's bistro-style food, like croque monsieurs with aged cheddar and leek fondue, or pistachio waffles with crème anglaise, so make sure you make a reservation through the website to avoid sulking by the hostess stand."

"Smith takes up all three beautifully designed floors and the patio of a sweet townhouse in the Village. Come for a boozy brunch with a whole drinks menu dedicated for that special meal, or simply to relax and indulge in some staples. On top of it all: they take reservations for the weekend, so there’s no hour-long wait for eggs!"

"Smith is a gorgeous French restaurant that’s popular for their brunch, as well as their adorable patio. With brick walls and hanging lights, their patio is super cute and Instagram-worthy. They’re only open on weekends at the moment, so definitely reserve ahead of time if you want to get a table!"

"Set in the heart of the Kensington Market district, Tortería San Cosme ranks among the best sandwiches we’ve eaten all year, and well worth the hype and the wait. This well-themed Mexican eatery is devoted only to torterías (bread-based sandwiches), with menu staples that include the Cubano (ham, pork, and bacon base - $9.95 CAD or about $8 USD), the Poblano (roasted chicken and mole - $9.95 CAD), and the Adobada (steak - $9.95 CAD)."

"Peterson heads to the famous Kensington Market district of downtown Toronto in this episode, to eat at Torteria San Cosme, which serves traditional Mexican sandwiches, called tortas. Opened by Mexico City-born chef Arturo Anhalt, San Cosme takes the often messy street food to a sit-down restaurant level."

"To start an energetic day in the Aloft Vaughan Mills area, you need to have a good breakfast. So why not boom your day in Boom Breakfast?. They have 3 locations, and Vaughan’s branch is the largest one, which seats 80 plus guests and an additional 40 during the summer patio season."

"3 Before he became known as Kungfu Dawg, purveyor of street meat, Stephen Payne was the head of the charcuterie program at Parkdale’s now-closed Parts and Labour. He went on to cook at Wallace and Co. in the Junction Triangle, then he opened up the city’s coolest hot dog stand on Ossington. Now he slings his homemade, no-filler franks and corn dogs loaded with (also homemade) condiments and toppings at breweries, flea markets and street parties all across the city."

"Bistro, Sandwich Shop, Fine Dining, Fusion, Japanese, Canadian Cuisine, Korean, Korea Meals, Sandwich Specialty, Online Menu, Soup, Japanese Meals, Restaurant With Wifi Internet, Lunch Menu, Dinner, Take-out, Lunch. Serving home-style since 2007, we specialize in Korean, Japanese and Sandwich dishes. As a family-owned restaurant we promise"

"13 The Liège-style Belgian sugar waffles from this market stand are addictive enough to eat on their own. Hot and fresh from the griddle press, the puffy squares are tender on the outside and irresistibly chewy on the inside. But you’d be a fool not to gild this lily with market-fresh fruit, whipped cream and a glug of Ontario maple syrup."

"Located just to the south of the Art Gallery of Ontario, Grange Park is a small green space but a lovely spot to catch a dose of the outdoors in the city. The area was originally part of the Boulton family Estate, built in 1817, of which The Grange is all that remains. Along with a children’s play area and off-leash dog area, the park is full of gems to discover."

"A post shared by Nish Chankar (@nishchankar) on May 9, 2018 at 2:29pm PDT. Yet another beautiful park in the core of downtown, Grange Park is a relatively new addition to the city and includes a gated dog park, a jungle gym, flowers and trees that provide just the right amount of shade."

"Next we have the quaint Beverly Rooftop which features Mexican eats on a small rooftop. This is a lesser known spot but is a great spot to hit if you’re looking to sip on cocktails during the day and enjoy Tacos on the side. This spot has a nice ambiance with a nice view of the CN Tower, despite its small size."

"This park is at Don River and spreads over 18 acres with tons of trees and wildlife. The playground itself is updated and there are swing sets and a fun sprinkler area as well as a fireplace, permanent barbeque, large picnic tables and nearby washrooms."

"Specializing in North-Eastern Chinese food, Chinese Traditional Buns more than makes up for it’s questionable decor with some of the best food in Chinatown. The quaint storefront might just be one of the area’s best-kept secrets. Head down the stairs to try their famed Dan Dan Noodles and Soup Dumplings, these unique specialties are not to be missed!"

"An iPad ordering system makes mealtime seamless, and prices based on kids’ ages ($1.30 per year of age for dinner and $1.20 at lunch) make AYCE sushi and dim sum more affordable at this Chinatown spot."

"Do not be fooled – this place serves so much more than just potatoes. In fact, I am pretty sure they don’t even have potatoes on the menu. Known mostly for their gargantuan dessert toast stacks, their dessert menu is extensive."
