 Quintessential cafe |
134 Avenue Road (At Davenport) Toronto, ON M5R 2H6 Canada +1 416 964 8686 http://arlequinrestaurant.com/ |
Situated on the edge of Yorkville, this restaurant could be described as a freshly-baked croissant in the midst of day-old donuts. In keeping with the café setting, the tables are tight and the hall narrow. For lunch, a Warm Bagette with asparagus, brie, tomato and pesto aioli, which comes with an arugula salad, should do nicely. For dinner, there are Grilled Shrimps and Mussels with Linguine, Grilled Fennel with Garlic, Marjoram, Tomatoes and Olive Oil. Aside from sit-down meals, the restaurant offers a gourmet take-out service and catering. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 A great, friendly neighbourhood |
Eglinton Avenue West (Between Bathurst and Old Park Road) Toronto, ON M6C 2C5 Canada +1 416 203 2600 (Tourist Information) |
This eclectic section of Eglinton Avenue is where the Forest Hill residential area merges into the less upscale regions to the west. Bagel aficionados of all stripes have tons of choice, from the traditional Daiter's to the trendier, Montreal-style St Urbain Bagel Shop. Long-time neighbourhood restaurants like Jerusalem can be found here, as well as more upscale spots like Sette Mezzo. Fans of arts and crafts will enjoy visiting A Show of Hands Contemporary Crafts Gallery or the Liss Gallery. Payment method varies from store to store. Review © 2007, Wcities |

This Place Really Cooks! |
2221 Yonge Street Toronto, ON M4S 2B4 Canada +1 416 481 2828 http://www.hannahskitchen.com/ |
Surrounded by shops and towers in the Yonge - Eglinton area, and upscale restaurants such as Centro, this tiny eatery feels like a step back in time. Decorated with antiques and well-worn church pews, it has rural general store charm. The menu includes traditional and more adventurous meals. Sandwiches range from egg to portobello mushroom with chèvre. There are also interesting wraps such as Ginger Lime Chicken with Mango Salsa, and Maple Lime Salmon. The multinational dinner menu offers a vegetable stew of sweet potato and butternut squash. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Centrefield seats |
279 Yonge St Toronto, ON M5B 1N8 Canada +1 416 362 3636 http://www.hardrock.com/locati... |
No other franchise can lay claim to overlooking centre-right field at the Rogers Centre (home of the Toronto Blue Jays). A baseball enthusiast's dream, you can eat and watch the game from some of the best seats in the house. They're $30 per, but $23 acts as a credit towards your bill. Inside, legendary blues guitar player Stevie Ray Vaughan's autographed Stratocaster hangs over the pool table—just one of many pieces of rock 'n' roll memorabilia. If you're on Yonge St, there's another Hard Rock across from Eaton Centre. Review © 2007, Wcities |

You won't have to sing for your supper at this colourful and friendly place—the staff does that for you. The counter help sings your order to the cooks and occasionally the entire crew breaks into a little ditty about onion rings or the famous Homeburgers. Choose your own toppings, which include the special sauce, known as Guk. Vegetarians can order delicious veggie burgers or fresh salads. There's a kids' menu and a large selection of ice cream and fruit for dessert. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Comfort Foods in Style |
249 Victoria Street (at Dundas) Toronto, ON M5B 1T8 Canada +1 416 364 7517 http://www.thesenator.com/ |
Redesigned in the mid 1940s, this diner, part of the complex including the Savoy Lounge, has been serving generation after generation of dedicated customers. While pouring maple syrup on a pile of pancakes hot off the griddle or sipping a thick-beyond-belief chocolate milkshake, you will soon understand why this classic spot, close to the Eaton Centre, Pantages Theatre and City Hall, has become a Toronto landmark.
