Guidebook for Toronto
Food Scene
Maman, a bakery and café in Toronto’s financial district, is a collaboration between Armand Arnal, head chef at Michelin star restaurant La Chassagnette in the South of France.
Cute restaurant/bakery. It is very busy during lunch hours on a work day. They offer quality fresh food (Quiches, sandwiches, flatbreads and salads) and baked goods in a charming setting. If you have a sweet tooth, I'd recommend slice of their Pistachio Bread.

Good take-out sandwich and salad joint. Their sandwich bread is amazing, nice and crackling, golden brown toasted. They're generous with meat and sauce as well. The place is small and you have to stand to eat but you're done in 10 minutes because it's so good and it doesn't matter
