People who follow me/DelectablyChic! on Instagram and Twitter know that I eat out a lot.  I have my regular spots (especially for brunch) and also try new places.  And in Toronto, there are plenty of places to try.  I can’t even keep up!  So I’ve decided to come up with a list.  Some of the restaurants below are places I’ve already gone to (but have not visited in a while), while others are those I have yet to experience.  Some are new, others are not and for the most part, the restaurants are NOT chains (save for Nando’s, for example).  Here’s a list of just a few:

• Combine – went March 28; write-up live on April 1
  
• Momofuku (Daisho – I have been to the noodle bar) – went on May 2, review posted May 5
• Ganzi(for dinner as I have been for a media event) – went on August 9
• Duke’s Refresher
• Trinity Taverna (this will be a return visit, hopefully in the summer)
• El Catrin – Went May 9
• Fanny Chadwick’s (for dinner – I have been there for brunch)
• Insomnia Cafe (for dinner – been for brunch)
• Nando’s – Went March 29
• Factory Girl
• Mildred’s Temple Kitchen (went August 16)

• Lee

• East Thirty-Six (for dinner – I have been there for cocktails and appetizers)
• Queen Margarita Pizza (is it sad that I’ve never been?)
• Le Petit Dejeuner (went for brunch many years ago)
• Paese
• Coco Lezzone – Went June 20
• Harvest Kitchen

As I visit these places, I will be Instagramming, Tweeting and writing posts about them.  Look for the first one or two soon. This list isn’t complete, as many places in the west and east ends, especially brunch spots are not on the list.  As I go, names will be crossed out.  Names will also be added to the list.
