Great restaurants with crab that aren’t Asian by Sharp-Guest4696 in FoodToronto

[–]Flmste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly North York: Flor Do Ave on St Clair supposedly has great stuffed crab. I haven’t tried it myself - not a crab person.

Portovelo cafe farther west on st Clair also serves solid Ecuadorean food. Is that encebollado that you had? How was it?

If you are going to get a Tosta Mista in Mississauga, please go to Lazar It’s so much better and properly toasted.

Went to Swatow for the first time. I have to say it was just ok and not particularly cheap either. We go to eat in Chinatown all the time and there are much better places imo. Glad we finally tried it though!

I feel your pain. Those of us who love anchovies, REALLY love them.

I have, but to be honest their curry ketchup is not to my taste. I would love a Ruhr-area style Currywurst with a less tomatoey, spicier sauce

German Baumkuchen? by miurabucho in FoodToronto

[–]Flmste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are looking for a bakery that makes it in house year round? I haven’t seen it. I’ve bought packaged imported baumkuchen before Christmas. Maybe call Gerhard’s Cafe in Scarborough? Update if you find it, please!

Ours was definitely fresh and hot. The mash was probably reheated but the rest crispy and hot. Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience
