Part 68: few Colombian empanadas in Toronto are better than .

I always thought this was just an empanada spot until one of you guys put me on to the rest of their menu a couple years ago. It’s been in my rotation ever since if I’m looking for delicious Colombian comfort food.

This spot is fun, warm, and the food slaps! Thank you Natalia for taking a moment to sit with me and share a bit of your story 💐💪🙏🥰

Part 63: In this episode of North of Bloor Food Reviews we’re checking out for some Mexican and Venezuelan food.

I had more Venezuelan classics here since Venezuelan food is pretty hard to find in Toronto. I’m a certified arepa hater but the Llanera Arepa at this restaurant was one of my favourite bites of the year. Can’t wait to come back here and check out the rest of their menu!

.to is the gift that keeps on giving 🇪🇨

This was one of the first spots I featured when I started creating content and it’s awesome to see their progression from starting out as a Mexican restaurant to having one of the most comprehensive Ecuadorian food menus in the city.

Portions are huge and flavours are on point. It’s one of those spots I find myself at at least once a month.

Been a while since the last “North of Bloor” episode. Going back this our roots all 2026.

Classic spots, places you should care about. Frank’s has been around since 1965 and (in my opinion) serves some of the best Italian comfort food in Toronto. I specifically come for the panzerotti often. ($15)

We’ve been eating at franks since elementary school, fun fact first time I smoked a joint I actually ordered Frank’s for the munchies. It’s one of those spots you grow old with, hopefully bring your kids - a gift that keeps on giving. I love you

Part 33: In this episode of North of Bloor Food Reviews™️, I’m at the iconic .to at Finch & Milvan. Growing up, we used to call this place “The People”. I had no idea it was called plaza Latina until later and when I asked my dad why he lied and told us it was called the people, he said it’s because it’s where the real people go to eat 🤣. I love this place - it’s special to me and really important to the Latino community in Toronto. I’ll be back to make many more videos here.
