A few weekends ago I scooted on up to the neighbors up north..
Ontario, Canada for a little foodie fun in Toronto.
First stop, St.Lawrence Market!
I was really impressed with the presentation and sheer amount of all the fresh fruits and veggies...
A stop at the Carousel Bakery for the famous Peameal Bacon Sandwich is a must. Peameal is like Canadian Bacon. Emeril featured the Bakery it on his show and the traffic around it was nuts! They have a signed letter from him proudly displayed. You just ordered up at the counter...and dressed it up yourself. I tried 2 different kinds of mustard. One was so wonderfully hot it brought tears to me eyes. I regret not buying it at the neighboring stand, it was made by some Polish dudes, so you know it was good.
And then...the bakery...oh boy. I ate, I'm embarrassed to say...2 chocolate almond crossiants as big as my head. They were the best thing I have ever wrapped my lips around. Good GAWD. I had a picture of those, but I ate that too...so here are other treats spotted in the basement bakeries.
Stay tuned for other notes from my trip! I can't wait to return.
