Doughnut fans, it's time to rejoice. With the growing trend of gourmet comfort foods literally taking over Toronto – think tacos, smokehouses, ramen, and the list goes on – it was only a matter of time before doughnuts got their just desserts

Electric Mud BBQ opened quietly a few days ago... but it took little to no time for its buzz to take flight. Not surprising, considering it's the new venture from the fellas who graced our scene with the epicness that is Grand Electric

We've been getting a lot of new Japanese restaurants as of late – Ryoji, Kingyo, A-OK Foods, Santouka, etc, etc – and many hail from Canada's west coast. (Vancouver being a city floored with izakayas, sushi spots, and ramen shops.) But with the opening of Nejibee, an izakaya/teppanyaki bar with an expanded izakaya/sake bar opening soon, we've a new entry from Tokyo itself

A few months ago we had the pleasure of experiencing a unique sake tasting at Toronto's Ki courtesy of sake sommelier Michael Tremblay – one of only five in Canada. One thing we've always wanted to know, though: what makes someone an expert on sake?

Second: Thou shalt share embarrassments from the night before with thine crew. Third: Thou shalt imbibe as kings, or the Great Caesar. With these three tenets ruling our search, here are the five newest entries in the Brunch Bible

We had just sat down at the Fallsview Restaurant’s Rainbow Room for a ‘Night with Massimo Capra and Friends’ and, before even having the time to glance over our menu, knew we were in for a treat. Like the maestro of a world-class orchestra, Capra captivated the dining room with an eccentric introduction complemented by a breathtaking view of the glowing Niagara Falls behind him

We’re closing in on another wintery month (though, admittedly, a recent sighting of Cherry Blossoms proved rather uplifting). However, that doesn’t stave off our craving for a someplace warm. With no such vacation days on the horizon and another month or two left of chilly temps and drizzle, we figure the next best thing to seeking the sun is to at least find places to eat around town that channel that vibe
