Both are sprawling, multicultural cities known for their immigrant food scenes, street snacks, and late-night cheap eats. But while both places offer incredible eats under $15, what you get for your money—and the flavour stories behind it—are uniquely shaped by geography, immigration patterns, and lifestyle. Some differences come from east to west vibes as well.

On our recent outing, he held it in all the way to the park and let it all go in a glorious 39-second pee (yes, we counted!). We think he’s just that polite. Tommy takes his time exploring the world. He may stall a bit on walks, but it’s only because he’s soaking it all in, figuring things out at his own pace.
