Toucan Taco Bar

Trust me, I was shocked! It was not mind blowing, as I said, I am not a fan of hard shells...reminds me of grocery store crap. I am with you on Kensington....

If it works, I may buy a franchise....at 9 bucks a taco, I would be rich in no time..hehe

Oyster knife?

Yes, they are BeauSoleil from NB. They are small, plump, and sweet. A crowed pleaser. I noticed they come with a knife, must be a marketing thing! Anyways, always check the dates on the box, I have personally not had a problem. Enjoy.

Toucan Taco Bar

Unfortunately, it did not. Just a single taco....man if the street vendors in mexico knew they could get 9 bucks for a single taco, the borders would be flooded..hehe

Toucan Taco Bar

I went last night as well. I did not realize it was opening night. A little on the pricey side, $9 for a single chorizo taco is a little steep. Crispy shells are not my thing either, maybe an option to have soft corn tortilla may influence a return visit.

Oyster knife?

I highly recommend! The knife is easily the best I have come across...

Fresh Portugese Sardines

Thanks for the advice. Bought 6 tonight. I cleaned them myself, and to be honest they were not very fresh at all. The colour of the eyes were a little too greyish and the texture was a bit mushy. My own fault for buying them, but I had faith...even after grilling not so good....guess I'll try frozen. Thanks to all that responded.

Possibly the worst experience I have ever had. I was not as lucky as you to be warned beforehand.

They have some great Jazz/blues and good beer on tap. As for the food, well, they have some good beer on tap!

'Nduja Found!

What a rare find. Grande cheese on Orfus carries it. Spicy spreadable sausage. Imported from Italy to boot (no pun intended)

Could not agree more. I have had the exact same experiences with this place. Unfortunately, the pizza is good, however the delivery times are not acceptable.

Rolling Rock Beer

Not bad, its fairly light........I would not cross town to get it, but would order again if it comes to my hood.. On a side note, the pint glass that it was served in has a green hue through it, that was kind of cool.

Fresh are impossible in Toronto. Frozen can be found at Diana’s Seafood Delight on Lawrence.

Diana's Seafood opening restaurant

I agree, this is what is lacking for most of the city...Fresh seafood...cooked to your liking. Simple. Although I love oysters...an oyster bar will not cut it in this neck of the woods.

Not sure what all the fuss is about. They are trying the fixed price, I declined, and had just the pizza. No big deal.

Not sure how you all would fare in Italy.

ISO Lonza

All,

I am searching for Lonza....which is a cured and dried pork loin. I found it once at Roman Cheese in Niagara Falls, but cannot seem to find it in Toronto. I have tried Grande Cheese, Longos, Siena Foods, etc...

Any help is greatly appreciated!
