Hey there, how's it going? It's Cody,
and Giselle,
and right now we're gonna head to-- (laughter)
Arriving in Toronto after a short stay in Niagara Falls, the VeganTravel team
made its way over to Kensington Market for a sampling of the vegan options in the area.
Our first stop was King's Cafe, where our favorites included steamed BBQ buns,
soy nuggets, and wonton soup.
We just had a really nice, light lunch at King's Cafe here in Kensington Market,
and we're heading to Cosmic Treats. They have ice cream, brownies, some savory dishes,
and it's actually Veggielicious here in Toronto so there are
3-course meals all over the city at all kinds of vegan restaurants.
Hey, we're at Bunner's. Go with them, and check it out.
Come on!
Bunner's is a dedicated vegan and gluten-free bakery.
We took a few things to-go, including their butter tarts, a carmelita bar, and a red velvet whoopie pie.
Right now we're heading to a new place that Shannon has found called Sweet Hart.
I've never been there before, I guess it opened up two weeks ago, so we're going to check out that place too.
At Sweet Hart, our team delighted in a variety of unique treats, including Snickers bars, lemon tarts,
banana bread, and even a savory pizza pastry.
About a 30 minute walk from Kensington Market is Good Rebel Vegan Provisions.
This vegan grocer stocks a great selection of local and international products alike.
We also learned about another vegan store during our stay in Toronto: The Imperative,
which carries apparel, accessories, body care products, and more.
The vegan message is alive and well in this place.
Hey, so we're here at Doomie's. We're gonna probably get some small sides because we're all still pretty full.
Across the street at Doomie's, we split a variety of appetizers.
The jalapeño poppers and deep fried Oreos are not to be missed.
Another place in Toronto to pick up some vegan fare is YamChops,
a vegetarian deli with prepared foods for an easy grab and go option.
For an upscale dining experience we visited Planta, not far from the University of Toronto.
We thoroughly enjoyed each dish we tried, from the savory comfort delights
to the decadent dessert at the end of the meal.
The highly recommended Hogtown Vegan was one of our favorite stops for breakfast during our stay.
If you're looking for some classic, stick-to-your-ribs dishes, this place has got you covered.
Another all vegan spot we visited for brunch was Bloomer's, on Bloor Street.
The Yegg Salad Sandwich was a favorite among our group.
Bloor Street is also home to lively vegan spots like D-Beatstro, a music venue, cafe, and event space,
and Through Being Cool, a cozy vegan bakery with lots of sweet and savory options.
Fresh was recommended to us for their onion rings, and they did not disappoint!
This chain of restaurants also offers a brunch menu on weekends, and you can always get healthy offerings
like juices, smoothies, and salads here.
We enjoyed taking a break in Christie Pits Park, right over by Apiecalypse Now!
Apiecalypse Now! has the best pizza in all of Toronto. It's incredible.
Even when we were traveling it was like, "I can't wait to get back to Toronto go to Apiecalypse Now!"
Our group got together to split a wasabi hotdog, mozzarella sticks,
and of course a few slices of their pizzas.
