However, we're ready to graduate to something new, and with the help of one of Bangkok's best bartenders, we think we've found it. The vesper cocktail is a spin on the classic martini, which uses gin, vodka and Lillet Blanc, shaken, not stirred, and garnished with a lemon peel.

But, he was up for the challenge. “This is the eleventh opening I’ve done in my career,” he reveals.

Ossington is an area that's become synonymous with the trendy wine bars, small-plate restaurants and of-the-moment eateries that line its avenue. However, Linny's — a deli-inspired steakhouse and a relatively new Toronto restaurant on the strip — isn't overly concerned with ticking off the hipster checklist. There's nary a chalkboard or Edison lightbulb in sight.

Every month, it feels like there’s a new pizza joint opening up — and subsequent pizza-chasing lines down the block making headlines. But it’s not just sheer volume that’s making Toronto an underrated pizza destination: The city also hosts a wide variety of styles from around the world. “Toronto is an adventurous city when it comes to flavours and cuisines — they want to try new things and experiment,” says Nader Qawasmi, the co-owner and chef at Levant Pizza.
My go-to Financial District spot just got a makeover, and I have thoughts

1 month ago | foodism.to | Taylor Newlands

Solid cocktails, a menu of tasty South American-inspired bites and one of the best bottomless brunches in the city made Marked Restaurant my go-to spot whenever I needed an easy, crowd-pleaser. I've been there with friends, dates and even my family. Now the downtown Toronto restaurant has transformed into Runway06. The sprawling space feels louder and flashier than before. On a Thursday evening after work, EDM is bumping out of the speakers, even though most diners don't arrive until much later.

1 month ago | foodism.to | Katie Bridges

Estiatorio Milos might be a Canadian creation, but it took almost 50 years — and multiple expansions to global cities like London, New York and Dubai first — before Toronto got in on the action. Back in 1979, Costas Spiliadis opened the first Estiatorio Milos in Montréal, and today the upscale Greek chain has become synonymous with seafood, salads and simple, beautiful food. Estiatorio Milos Toronto, on Bay Street, lets us taste what all the fuss is about.
