The 38 Best Restaurants in Toronto, Canada | Eater

"Chef-owner Corinna Mozo’s retro diner (replete in pastel hues and squeaky vinyl banquettes) pays tribute to the restaurant her grandfather owned in Cuba in the 1950s. Everything is made from scratch, including the bread, pastries, and desserts. The serotonin-boosting barbecue beef short ribs are braised for hours, given a lacquer of sweet-savory guava sauce, and served with meaty, palm-sized tostones. Another must-try is the classic Cubano, which gets catapulted into high society with slow-roasted pork shoulder, oozy Gruyere, tangy red onions, and chipotle mayo on a house-made baguette. Know before you go: You didn’t hear it from me, but the original location on Ossington may or may not contain a speakeasy called Bar Habana." - Tiffany Leigh
