Good Food and Where to get it.

Toronto is unmistakably multicultural, and there are many festivals where you can meet people from all countries of the world. The cuisine in Toronto could not be more diverse. Here you can find different flavours of the world. The city of Toronto is divided into small “villages”, where you can find restaurants of good quality at low prices, and restaurants with not so much quality and prices that can break the bank. To have a gastronomically diverse experience, you should visit immigrant neighbourhoods.

In Little Italy on College Street, you can find the tastiest dishes you’d find in any typically Italian town. Restaurants with Italian styles really provide a special touch to try real Italian pasta made by real Italians. Prices can vary from one restaurant to another. The advice is to look at the menus that are always in a frame on the door.

To experience fantastic oriental cuisine, there are many options.

Korean food can be found in both Korea Town, near Christie Station, and also near Finch Station. The prices are quite affordable, and the taste is especially authentic. The decor of the restaurants, according to some native Koreans, makes you feel like you’re really in Korea.

Chinese cuisine is usually quite inexpensive and can be found in one of three areas in the city: one on Spadina Avenue, just north of Markham between Kennedy Avenue and Midland Avenue, and the other downtown.

Japanese cuisine, with magnificent and popular Sushi, can be found at all prices and flavours all over town. Some restaurants offer an all-you-can-eat option from around 12 to 15 dollars per head.

Fabulous Greek cuisine can be found all along Danforth Avenue. There you can experience Hellenic culinary delights at fair prices at a variety of restaurants.

Brazilian barbecue and the famous feijoada can also be found in Toronto. Brazilian restaurants are scattered throughout the city. Despite most of them being in Little Portugal, Kensington Market also hosts some great restaurants. I was optimistic, but I can assure you that Brazilian cuisine in Toronto is “international”. That’s not to say that it’s not good, but for those who are accustomed to eating the food back home, it doesn’t taste the same. Prices average 30 dollars per person.

Latin American food can be found at all price levels in Toronto and can be found in fancy restaurants or fast food restaurants scattered downtown.

Veggie food can be found easily, scattered in all corners of Toronto, but my tip is Urban Herbivore on Augusta Avenue in Kensington Market.

At this point I'm asking myself, what is Canadian food?

With the immigration of a lot of different cultures, Toronto lost a little of the cooking features specified, but is born by poutine, representing Canadian cuisine. This can be found in fast-food shops in every mall in Toronto, but Canada is healthy too. The healthy foods are present in Canadians’ lifestyles, such as fruits and vegetables. Despite being expensive in supermarkets, they can be bought at low prices in China Town.

And if that puts a strain on your budget, and your money runs out, my tip for you is to not be tempted by expensive foods. Resort to the famous kiosks that provide tasty hotdogs. They’re cheap and they end hunger.
