Despite being an iconic Toronto dish, the peameal bacon sandwich isn’t a ubiquitous menu item in the city.

That’s why Cabano’s owner Kevin Boyd added his version to the menu at the end of September.

Found on a brick-lined road overlooked by most Torontonians, Boyd’s version starts with five-and-a-half ounces of thick-cut peameal bacon seared in beef tallow.

It’s then topped with two tomato slices, American cheese and a choice of regular honey mustard or spicy honey mustard, all tucked into a soft pretzel bun.

What did you get and where? I got the veal at Sumaq for $5.99. Kinda small and wish they asked if I wanted it spicy. Surprisingly, despite the long lines for cheap shawarma, I saw people waiting in line to order the rice plates.

As I was passing through the Lawrence strip, the lots at Empire and Ghadir were packed with cars lining up along the street trying to get in.

Had the chicken katsu box for $13.99 pre tax for a dine in lunch. It was actually the perfect size because their regular menu items are massive. Chicken was a bit thin but other than that a great lunch. What are your best cheap downtown lunches? This is in the Annex Bloor and Spadina. For the price and value I'll be back. Good, prompt service. Nice vibes inside. 12pm to 3pm

odd post, but I was able to swing it where I was 1) able to get some personal time and 2) line it up with a single seat rsvp at Linnys.

Help me! I want to make the most of this but am realistic about how much I can order/ eat as single dinner here. I can only over stuff so much. Help me build the ideal order for the night.

Only thing I know is, 1) i won't get this chance again in a while, 2) the pastrami is what got me really wanted to come here 3) the chicken liver toast seems like a must?

I want a ribollita soup and cacio e pepe pasta! Please help!

I have scoured menu after menu on google.

I see there are a few pho places on Gerrard East. Which one would this sub recommend? I don’t think I’ve ever had pho before.

I am wondering if Toronto has any good, affordable bento boxes for lunch that are similar to Taiwan train bentos or lunch bentoes in Japan. Ideally either Japanese owned or Taiwanese.

Huge chunks of fatty pork in the jajang sauce. Very home cooked vibe and super substantial portion. Jeon as a banchan is appreciated, as is the slow jazz standards playing.

A contender for best value meal in Toronto for me. Also in the running are:

- most places a banh mi are under $5 (but especially the one with $3.50 takeout meals on Spadina)

- Nepalese buffet on Roncy

- handrolls at Maki Mart

-2 for $5 birria/barbacoa tacos at Venerica Meats

- Village on the Grange

Hello Toronto foodies! I have some random weekdays off and I'd love to know your favourite places for lunch specials? I'm open to all cuisines !!! Location and budget flexible, would love to discover new restos and can travel as far as Mississauga, Markham, and Scarborough on the east side.Thank you!!

ETA: I loved the PII Nong Thai massage lunch special for instance and would love similar vibes of like, reduced prices but still delicious deals ^{•^}

In Japan, supposedly a popular flavour of milkshake is made with edamame, and is also known as a zunda milkshake. Anyone know where to get one of these in Toronto? Or at least edamame ice cream? thanks

Right by Dufferin subway.

Not sure if the restaurant made a mistake and I was only supposed to get two tacos, but four for under $10 with complementary sides & sauces is an amazing deal!

I ordered from Ubereats since they had a BOGO promo there, but the shop is actually running the promotion off Uber too, so I'm gonna call them and order the BOGO directly next time.

I discovered this place via an Instagram ad and while that usually isn't enough to make me go I decided to take a chance. It might be my new favorite Mexican place in the city (slightly edging out Taqueria el pastorcito). The al pastor was especially good, it reminded me alot of my time in Mexico City - they actually use a proper trompo for it which probably makes a big difference. The prices were also great. The only real downside is if you live in the core and don't have a car, it's definitely a bit of a journey to get there.
