The best of Toronto's Bloordale! Or Blansdowne. Whatever. This strip of Bloor is so far ahead of the curve people still debate what to call it. We say Pre-Hip.
the BREL team: Small with an even smaller ever-changing menu (designed to make you ask "what the heck is THAT?") Great wine by the glass: try the Norm Hardie Reisling...if it's still around! No reservations or CC's
the BREL team: Broken bread (read: deconstructed) sandwiches, great soups, decent wines. A shining beacon on what otherwise would be a dead stretch of Bloor
