Szechuan Noodle Bowl ~ 400 Dundas St. E ~ Mississauga

There are restaurants you find on your own, and then there are spots locals quietly drag you into because they know you’ll become obsessed with them.  Szechuan Noodle Bowl was that for us.  Mississauga legend CMurda put us onto it years ago, and now whenever we’re anywhere near Five & Ten, lunch plans are basically…

ZET’S ~ 6445 Airport Rd ~ (289) 800-2038

May 1st.  Our eldest’s birthday.  She wanted burgers.  Onion rings.  No debate.  So we went to Zet’s.

Leela’s Roti and Doubles (900 Rathburn Rd W. / 2573 Victoria Park Ave)

Leela’s Roti & Doubles is a Trinidadian #cheapeats experience located at  either end of the GTA.  Our kinda place, they have a rotating daily menu dedicated to #lunchunder10bucks.  The Toronto Food Blog was a recent guest on ‘Sauga960AM’s Dine & Dash Radio Show where we disclosed that a visit to Tobago was atop our culinary…
