Cash-only Greektown pastry shop favoured by locals. I believe the only thing they serve to eat is the best spanakopita I've ever had (meat, spinach, or cheese) and honey balls (loukoumades). Sit and eat or take out.

This is a small breakfast diner with booths and counter and ironic throwback decor. The place is run top to bottom by one man and one woman who seem a little gruff and no-nonsense at first, before you realize they are just busy getting the job done well.

Sightseeing

This is a cool destination where you can enjoy leafy hiking trails in the Don Valley, check out arts or food markets, see art or historical exhibits, and just marvel at the successful reclamation of a former industrial wasteland. When I was a kid, this place was an empty junkyard you climbed into with your friends. Now it's a hive of ingenuity and ideas.
