Where to buy GOOD eggs in Toronto or GTA?
The eggs in the Maritimes and in France are WONDERFUL. I have yet to find anything, at any price, here in Toronto that compares. I would love a source of Maritime eggs here.

Sounds good, great location. I'm getting behind in my research. I still haven't tried the Sheraton, then I'll try Panorama.

I agree Pastryrocks. What you say is, tragically, true. Still, the search goes on. Sometimes in student cafeterias, they weigh the plates for the price. Protein (fish, meat, nuts, cheese…) is heavy and expensive; carbs (pasta and bread: flour + water) are light and cheap.

Hello Kennieko I tried the Le Gourmand brownie and yes you are right, it is rich and moist but it is BEGGING for nuts. The noodie cookie also was quite amazing but very expensive for a single bite. Thanks for the suggestions. The search goes on. Next, I'll try the Sheraton.

This sounds wonderful too. I am not often down in the Distillery District, but sooner or later I'll be there this summer and I'll be sure to visit Soma. Many thanks.

Toronto Chocolate Nut Brownie
I have just had the best brownie yet at Baton Rouge (Toronto Eatons Centre). The brownie was big (3” square) chocolaty and moist. It was full of baked-in walnuts with more chopped walnuts on top. It was warm and fresh as if it had just come out of the oven (it didn’t…it came out of the microwave…no matter). It had a nice big scoop of delicious good-quality vanilla ice-cream on top. I asked for chocolate sauce instead of the kahlua. My only disappointment was that the chocolate sauce was only a token decorative drizzle. Price: $7.00 It was wonderful, but I would give it a rating of only 4 out of 5 because of the stingy chocolate sauce. Many thanks for the suggestion…I’ll keep looking for other options with nuts and a generous serving of chocolate sauce.

Hi Magic, I didn't see your reply. Yes Moxies sounds like a good possibility: http://www.moxies.ca/index2.htm white chocolate brownie: the ultimate dessert encounter! white and dark chocolate folded into a white chocolate brownie, finished with french vanilla ice cream, real whipped cream, and warm chocolate sauce. (Note from me...they say REAL whipped cream...not gelatin-milk-froth like at C'est what). I'll try Baton Rouge and Moxies as soon as I can.

Wonderful suggestions, Kennieko and Merlot143. I’ll try Le Gourmand. It must have nuts though, so maybe the chocolate cake will fill the bill. I’ll check it out.

Many thanks for the suggestions. I see that Baton Rouge has something. I’ll try it next. "Deep chocolate walnut brownie: An elegant chewy, chocolate brownie generously studded with golden walnuts, topped with French Vanilla ice cream and drizzled with Kahlua"

Yes, you are right. I could do it myself, but I don't want to have the left-over ingredients in my frig. A BIG dark rich moist brownie, full of nuts, with a BIG scoop of good quality ice cream and a wonderful hot chocolate sauce and loads of nuts on top. How can that be so difficult ! Surely SOMEPLACE in Toronto offers that. If I want it, surely there are others !

Today I tried the “Ultimate Brownie” at Pusateri’s at Bay and Bloor. It is a rich moist chocolate brownie with plenty of walnut pieces. 1” x 3” $2.25 No frosting, no ice cream, no chocolate sauce. None the less…It rates a 4 out of 5.

I went to C’est What today for the Hazelnut Brownie Sundae. The chocolate brownie was somewhat tasteless and didn’t have any visible hazelnuts. The vanilla ice cream was terrible with a terrible after-taste and a slimy texture. The poorest quality of ice-cream I have ever had. The whipped cream tasted and felt like some kind of milk-gelatine froth. The only good thing was the size of the serving. Two brownies, a big scoop of “ice-cream” and at least 1 cup of milk froth. On a scale of 0 to 5, I would give it a 2.

Ah ha. This is a good start. I found their menu http://www.cestwhat.com/foodmenu.asp and the description of their brownie: Hazelnut Brownie Sundae A warm homemade chocolate brownie topped with vanilla ice cream, rich chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. Too sublime not to share with a good friend. • $6.95 I'll go down to the St.Lawrence Market and get nuts to take with me. Many thanks !

Is there a café in central, downtown, or Yonge-Bloor Toronto that serves a dense chocolate-nut brownie, full of nuts, with chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream and more nuts on top ?
