Discover Places to Eat in Toronto, Ontario

Toronto is one of the biggest cities in Canada, full of historic neighbourhoods, a busy downtown core, and quaint suburbs. As a tourist city, Toronto plays host to some of the best restaurants and places to eat. Visitors can experience the hustle and bustle of the city, while still enjoying green parks and local cuisine. The vibrant nightlife attracts people of all ages. Hundreds of unique bars and pubs are what makes Toronto come alive.

Toronto's diversity is part of its charm. While out-of-towners may see the city as a tourist destination-complete with museums, theatres, sport facilities and fine dining experiences-it's locally run boutiques and restaurants are what truly give Toronto its character. The large immigration population has led to infused cuisines. In every neighbourhood, authentic Indian, Greek, Italian, or Chinese food can be found. For more information on these cuisines, explore MenuPalace's "discover" option.

The city is also committed to what they call the local food movement. The "Get Growing Toronto" program encourages Torontonians to create food-friendly neighbourhoods. Hundreds of restaurants promote sustainable and environmentally safe lifestyles. Dishes are made with fruits and vegetables imported from farms all across Ontario, giving these meals a fresh taste.

For local produce, there is nowhere better than the St. Lawrence market. Over 120 different vendors and artisans gather in the North and South halls of the market to sell their Ontario grown fruits and vegetables, dairy products, grains, and home made baked goods. In addition to food items, the St. Lawrence market also hosts a number of restaurants that serve Mediterranean, Indian, and American cuisine-word of their specialty peameal bacon sandwiches can be heard across the city. The second floor of the South market facilitates the Market Gallery, an exhibition space for the City of Toronto's Cultural Services. Other markets include those at Kensington, Etobicoke Centre, and Leslieville.
