On July 25 2011 @JewelStaite asked:
JewelStaite: So.. Moving to Toronto for two months for my new show that I can't talk about.
(More stupid secrets.) Where do I eat? Drink? Wine worship?
After proffering a few suggestions back on Twitter, I realized that I've offered similar suggestions to other people in the past, and that it would probably be a good idea to just make them into a web page here to refer to. While there are other good places, these are my personal favorites.

Yonge & Richmond
Dundas & Dufferin
Bloor & Yonge - Chez Cora, Note: Closes 3pm at most locations. Yummy fruit.

Open late late.
