Danforth Roti Shop ~ 2844 Danforth Ave ~ (416) 690-1308
If you are looking for T&T food in Toronto’s east-end, Danforth Roti Shop is the spot. The hand-drawn menu focuses on the classics: doubles, polourie, saheena and mauby (my personal favourite to wash everything down). Be sure to ask for condiments, hot sauces and chutney, as they’re hidden away in the back and aren’t to…
Drupati’s ~ 2038 Yonge St ~ (416) 487-7684
With 6 locations across the GTA, Drupati’s has been cooking-up some of the city’s finest Trinidadian cuisine for the past 20 Years. Needless to say, I was more than pleased when they opened their Yonge & Davisville location last summer… right in the heart of my old stomping grounds. Hey, look… there’s Dan Wong about to…

Coconut Grove Roti Shop ~ 183 Dundas St W ~ (416) 348-8887
Looking for something a little bit different for lunch… something exotic that won’t break the bank? Well, look no further than the Coconut Grove Roti Shop. This Mom & Pop has been serving-up T&T favourites for the past 10+ years. I remember loving this place when I was in high school and still venture here…
Cool Runnings ~ 146 Main St. ~ 416-693-8724
Tucked away amongst the up-and-coming shops at Main & Gerrard is Cool Runnings, a family-owned-and-operated Caribbean spot that’s full of young families from the neighbourhood on this Thursday night. And though the name might be reminiscent of the John Candy classic, the food is far from anything Canadiana. “So, you like taking pictures?” the lady at the…
