Lookout, Queen Street East bars with decent happy hours… Joy Bistro, with its 2 patios (one with a full menu and the other with a tapas lounge), has established itself as the after-work go-to for many an eastender.

Congee Star – 900 Don Mills Rd – (416) 385-8822
Tucked away in a mall off Don Mills Rd, Congee Star has, without question, one of the most extensive menus of any restaurant I’ve visited recently… so much so that it’s tough to get a seat during the lunch rush, even if it’s a table for one. Good thing their $6.25 take-out lunch special is…

A great place to come as a group and divvy things up at the table, this joint gets busier and busier by the day. With great prices on both their starters and mains, it’s easy to see why….
Bamiyan Kabob – 62 Overlea Blvd (Unit 3A) – (416) 429-7514
My boss and I were taking a cab across town recently, and we began chatting with the driver about food. Insisting that the best Afghani food in the city was Bamiyan Kabob, he gave us a menu and suggested we see for ourselves. The place was buzzing for a Thursday afternoon. From reading the menu…
