There’s something quietly magical about a place that’s been doing one thing, the right way, for over two decades. Up on the north end of Kerr Village, Ranee’s Roti brings Oakville the flavours of Port of Spain… stewed, chopped and folded by Ranee herself.

Rosie’s Burgers ~ 573 Queen St W ~ (647) 730-5555
Walking into the original Rosie’s Burgers feels a little bit like arriving at a cheeseburger in paradise (Queen St. West edition). With its pared-back menu of smash burgers, crunchy onion rings and fried-chicken sandos, Rosie’s is a masterclass in keeping the new-school simple. “No fuss. No muss.

Just as the ‘burbs give way to farmland, where the city’s grip loosens and the country starts to breathe, you’ll find Maria’s Tortas Jalisco… a place where the food feels like a long exhale. For the migrant workers and Mexican diaspora…
