The Toronto Food Blog has a real soft spot for the west-end neighbourhood of Bloordale Village. My wife and I lived on Lansdowne Avenue back in the day and thoroughly enjoyed all the diversity. One of the ‘hood’s best-kept secrets is Latin World. Half restaurant, half bodega, the name of the game here is cheap-eats. …

Loga’s Corner ~ 216 Close Ave ~ (647) 761-0965
Loga’s Corner is a popular Parkdale Tibetan restaurant & take-away. They draw large crowds, thanks to delicious food and reasonable prices.

Que Ling ~ 248 Boulton Ave ~ (416) 778-4038
Tucked away behind the main drag of Chinatown East, Que Ling is a Vietnamese Mom-and-Pop that does a couple of things really, really well. A bungalow turned dining room, table seats are hard to come by at lunch hour. And it’s obvious why… these guys are doling out some of the heartiest broth in town. …
