Yummy gourmet pizza. Dundas West & Markham You can order a personal pizza for pick up & it'll be ready in 10 minutes. My personal favs are the Diavola & Giovanna, but both are very spicy.(647) 748-46

This is one of Toronto's hot spots, the place is tiny but so very stunning. Inspired by Gaudi, it has been called the most beautiful bar in Toronto and I have to agree, it is all that. Food is also highly rated, snacky tapas style... you won't be disappointed. Very busy and just up the from our house.
