Summer holidays are the perfect opportunity to explore your own neighborhood, especially if you spend most of your time working elsewhere. Here are a few of my current favorite places, all within walking distance.
1. Le Marche St. George - this little gem at the corner of E. 28th & St. George could just be the find of the summer. Lovely setting, great coffee and pastries, unique market, not to mention a quaint, friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Just off the beaten track in the middle of a residential neighborhood. We need more of these.
2. Matchstick Coffee Roasters - new & funky coffee shop on the hottest new block at the corner of Kingsway & Fraser. Hand-filtered, made-to-order coffees, sunny, inviting space & communal table. Check it out.
3. Sal y Limon - across Fraser from the above-mentioned hot block, serving up authentic Mexican street food. Personally, I'm loving the added bonus - Mexican coca-cola (made with cane sugar).
4. Outpost Cafe - E. 23rd & Fraser, this cozy little shop serves coffee, breakfasts and sandwiches. Try the homemade breakfast biscuits.
