Happy New Year! 2018 was a fantastic year for the Toronto Food Blog, filled with great meals avec friends and family. We tried a number of wonderful restaurants for the very first time, many of which were worth writing home about. Here’s a recap of some of the finer moments from the past year… BREAKFAST…
Category: St. Lawrence Market
P.J. O’Brien ~ 39 Colborne St ~ (416) 815-7562
Hidden away on Colborne St, right behind the King Eddy, is P.J. O’Brien. This is the city’s top Irish pub; a downtown fixture for as long as I can remember. I had my first “legal” pint here and continue to frequent when I need a place for a semi-casual client lunch or a pint before…
Patrician Grill ~ 219 King St E ~ (416) 366-4841

Next time you’re at the St. Lawrence Market, you might notice that, like clockwork, a line starts to form at the south end of the building right before the lunch-hour rush.
