Always in the avant garde,
Centro continues as a central jewel among restaurants, close to the
hearts of their Torontonian and international patrons. It's the busiest
deluxe restaurant in Toronto, attracting the celebs, the chic, and the
powerful to a setting akin to a modern Venetian palace, with 18-foot
ceiling, pillars and mezzanine, resplendent with brilliant colours and
refracted light. People return for the innovative cooking and inventive
combinations of forceful flavours and finesse, the best the city has to
offer. And they return for the best wine list in North America, with
over 800 expertly chosen selections.

EDO
Japanese
|
EDO, the old name for
Tokyo during the days of the Shogun. Besides the stunning sushi, there are many
innovative and exquisite dishes. Their classic sauces of teriyaki,
saikyo and sesame are matchless, as is the tempura. The reasonably
priced list of wines and sakes features some rarely seen in Toronto.

Traditional
sushi and full menu served in a casual atmosphere. Great for dropping in
for a quick bite from noon through late night. The sushi bar has become
a favourite for women and men to stop by when alone, for a quiet
"read", or to converse with the congenial chefs. There are
specialties not found elsewhere such as the EDO-ko oysters, Kaki
Age (a variation of tempura) and lobster tempura. Ask for the famous
"Dynamite Roll", Karashi Sumiso, Nasu Dengaku (eggplant). The
wine and sake list allows for small tastings to match each course.

BODEGA
French

Two Victorian
houses is the perfect airy, romantic setting. Glowing with its high
ceiling, Victorian woodwork, bright windows, cosy fireplace and
tree-lined summer patio. Intimate and elegant--- so French in decor and
with its famous regional dishes--- with the inimitable casual elegance
and ambience that can evoke Paris in a plate of cassoulet. The
classically hearty dishes, matched by a great wine list with a Bordeaux
emphasis, are there, but driven by a light health conscious cooking
style that stresses fresh-market cuisine.

Lakes is a
place where you take a seat, its warm, comfortable surroundings ease all
tensions and prepare you for the gastronomic delights to follow. All the
senses are stimulated--- gentle music from a bygone era, savory aomas
from the open kitchen, "comfort" food to satisfy any taste,
expert presentation and the soft feel of a plush, upholstered banquette.
The menu features some of Toronto's tastiest treats--- from warm goats
cheese appetizer to the chef's daily fresh fish or meat specials. Their
homemade desserts are legendary. An intimate and friendly bar overlooks
Yonge Street. The extensive, yet reasonably priced wine list,
offers many choices by the glass.
