Known as Canada’s cultural and culinary capital for a reason and with a smorgasbord of flavors on offer, from ancient markets to succulent street foods and everything in-between, you’ll need a local foodie friend leading the way. Start the epicurean adventures at the 200-year-old artisanal hub of global gastronomy at St. Lawrence Market where candied salmon, local cheeses, freshly baked bagels (and don’t you dare forget the iconic Peameal bacon sandwich) all await sampling. Or if you prefer to wet your whistle and rub shoulders with some locals, the Distillery District and a craft beer of choice is calling! Kensington Market is next up and a must-visit, famed as the eclectic, food-hub ‘hood’ of Toronto and ideal as the top spot to get the most bang for your buck whilst tucking into it all. Bon appetit!

Toronto is famed for its multicultural influences, you could begin your food tour in the Old Town as you weave through the stalls, sampling dishes like beet chutney and braised pork at St.Lawrence Market. From here, you could explore the pedestrian-only Distillery District, once housing a 19th-century whiskey distillery and now drawing crowds to its cobblestone streets lined with bars, boutiques, and quirky eateries. Next up is the outdoor Kensington Market, sandwiched between Little Italy and Chinatown! Let your tastebuds travel as your local guide points out some must-try dishes from jerk chicken, doner kebab to hummus bowls and shrimp-stuffed burritos, before sitting down to your chosen market lunch together over more tasty travel tales.
