Tucked away in Chinatown East, Mi Mi’s has established itself as a neighborhood hot-spot. If you’re looking for a fast (usually), cheap, friendly, clean place to eat Pho in the east-end of town, this is where you need to go. Spring Rolls ($3.95) are made-to-order (not fried) and are filled with either Shrimp or BBQ…
Ted’s Range Road Diner – 138490 Grey Rd. 112 – (519) 538-1788
It’s really a no-brainer what the best personal dining experience has been over the past year. If you’re ever anywhere even close, be sure to checkout Ted’s Range Road Diner just outside of Meaford. For those of you reading this in the 519, sorry if it sounds like I’m repeating myself. I think it’s safe…
The Tulip Steakhouse- 1610 Queen St. East – (416) 469-5797
“Famous for their world-class steaks and all-day breakfasts since 1929,” The Tulip Steakhouse is a Beaches landmark… good for three square meals a day. It would be difficult to find a better all-day breakfast than The Tulip Big Breakfast ($9.95). The decadence of this platter is the stuff of legend. Here we have 3 Eggs,…

And for good reason… From 5pm until 7pm daily it’s only $2.50 for bar rail, domestic bottles…
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…
Ten Places To Eat For A Fiver (Tax-In)
It’s almost impossible to get lunch for five bucks. Not so long ago, a $3.99 price-point was actually conceivable. In today’s world of the ten/fifteen-dollar lunch, it’s always good to know a few places that don’t break the bank… and still do it up big-style despite being a good value. We all have a few…
