Oh, the Places We Will Eat!

We had dinner tonight at a Japanese restaurant in our new neighbourhood. While we were sharing our thoughts on the food (it was pretty tasty!) I mentioned that I still miss a good bento box from I Love Sushi in Toronto.

This inspired a game to guess each others top five places they want to eat at when we are back in Toronto. We then narrowed it down to four, because the obvious number one for both of us was Sneaky Dee's. It was interesting, and in the end, limiting the list to five was obviously too restricting.

So here they are:
Erik's Top Four (in no particular order)
1. Sanguiches (an Italian sandwich place somewhere in the heart of Little Italy)
2. Pho Hung (for some reason it took a lot of prompting for me to guess this one)
3. I Love Sushi
4. Indian buffet from any of the places around U of T

Torie's Top Four
1. I Love Sushi
2. Indian food in general along Queen West, including Rasoee the fast food Indian joint where two can dine with a bottle of wine for $29.99
3. Chinese food--a tie between the Golden Leaf and the dim sum place with the dragons outside on Spadina
4. Terroni's, the one on Queen west, of course

Other favorites that came up, that should also have made the list:
-the Hungary Thai--a Thai and Hungarian restaurant in Kensington market that has live synthesizer, if you're lucky
-Mezes on the Danforth
-restaurants that we had only been to once or twice, but would like to go back to, such as Crush Wine Bar and Marcel's.
-the Real Jerk
-Romagnia Mia
-wings from the Wheat Sheaf
-Hero Burger---seems like we ate there more than once on the way out to Sharon and Harry's with a load of stuff before we left.

Ahhh...good memories.

Not to worry, we're in the process of finding new favorites here in Paris. The Indian restaurant next door was quite good, and the Japanese place tonight was also fantastic, but it's hard to compare one overpriced bowl of unagi don with a $10 bento box filled with a little bit of everything. I like my variety. Just ask Erik about the lunches I used to pack.
