A historic building with a restaurant overlooking the boardwalk and sandy beach. The food isn't great - just your typical bar food like pizza and burgers - but worth the visit just for the view and drinks.

A bit of a trip, but very well worth it. A fantastic new bakery that makes the BEST croissants we've tried anywhere in the world - yes, even compared to the best of Paris. Everything on their menu is exceptional, but after the butter croissants, their pistachio croissants are fantastic (they sell out within an hour of opening) - third best would be their passion fruit pastry that doesn't hit the shelves until 12pm.

Michelin Guide mention! "Start your morning or fire up your evening at this groovy Filipino diner bursting with color and coolness. Sea foam green tile, pink booths and turquoise stools set the stage for a hangout that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Brunch is a treat, featuring Adobo fried chicken paired with pineapple habanero hot sauce. The wonderfully sour braised pork loin soup will ward off the longest nights and the coldest winters. Dinner is a different speed. The cocktail bar comes alive, and the kitchen trades in Japanese milkbread French Toast for classic pancit with chili oil, chicken liver mousse and calamansi pie with orange blossom meringue. With a come-as-you-are vibe, this charming restaurant is a welcome winner in Parkdale."
