Babalu'u

Salsa Dancing, Salsa Eating

136 Yorkville Avenue
Lower Level
Toronto, ON M5R 1C2
Canada
+1 416 515 0587
http://www.babaluu.com/

Not too many places can combine hot salsa dancing with dining just as exquisite, but this smouldering Latin club-restaurant smack in the middle of upscale Yorkville does just that. Patrons come for the Seared Sea Bass (CAD21) and stay for the merengue being dished out on the dance floor. The menu crosses several national boundaries, with grilled breads like lavash, crostini and roasted red pepper (CAD6-6.25), Grilled New York Striploin (CAD22.50), Grilled Salmon (CAD19) and a Smoked Chicken Fusilli (CAD13.95).

Boulevard Cafe

Cozy and romantic 161 Harbord Street
Toronto, ON M5S 1H1
Canada
+1 416 961 7676 Located in Toronto's popular Annex area, this is one of the few restaurants in the city offering genuine Peruvian food. It features a little upstairs alcove complete with fireplace for both those moonlight tête-à-têtes and hard-nosed business luncheons. The cuisine combines a fusion of African, Spanish and Incan influences for some unique flavours. Dishes include Anticuchos (marinated and charbroiled brochettes), Parrillada Mixta (mixed grill of lamb, chicken, beef and sausage), and Parrillada Vegetariana (charbroiled assorted vegetables). The heavily South American wine list includes a Santa Carolina Reserva Familia 1997 Cabernet.

Jumbo Empanadas

Best street food winner 245 Augusta Avenue
Toronto, ON M5T 2L8
Canada
+1 416 977 0056
http://www.jumboempanadas.com/... Known as the empanada Queen, Irene Morales has been creating these Chilean stuffed wonders for almost 10 years in her Kensington Market cafe. Eat them on the spot or take them home, and enjoy the fresh, home made flavour. One added bonus is that they can be frozen and, when reheated, taste as fresh as if you had just ordered one up. Irene also serves up Corn Pie and Humitas - corn mixed with onion and basil, rolled in cornmeal and placed in a cornhusk shell.
