WHERE CAN I EAT ?
As one might expect in a vast metropolis , you won ’ t be struggling for places to satisfy your appetite in Toronto .
French restaurant Alo – situated at the top of a downtown Victorian building – is pretty much a must-visit for foodies stopping in town for a night or two , with its internationallyinspired cuisine which celebrates the finest in seasonal ingredients . Chef Patrick Kriss has Michelin-star pedigree to his name and has created a truly memorable dining experience in something of a surprising location .
A long-standing favourite is Scaramouche , which offers delicious contemporary cuisine and panoramic skyline views to boot .
If you ’ re fortunate enough to dine here , you ’ ll be paying for world-class food and exceptional service . Dinner is served from 5pm , Tuesday to Saturday .
If charcoal-grilled steak is your thing , there ’ s only one place to start : Barberian ’ s , a true Canadian institution which might just be the nation ’ s most famous steakhouse .
Opened in 1959 by the legendary Harry Barberian , this Elm Street gem has hosted all manner of celebrities , sporting heroes and politicians over the years and , when you try the 32oz porterhouse , you ’ ll know why .
Come for the steak , stay for the incredible wine cellar containing more than 15,000 bottles from the world ' s greatest vineyards .
