While it’s nice to have variety on a menu, sometimes I welcome limited choice, which is why I’m a fan of Prix Fixe. Of course, it has to be at a good restaurant and preferably not during one of those ‘licious events. A perfect example of one I enjoy is Pizza Libretto (221 Ossington Ave.) and their great three-course fixed-price lunch menu that’s only $15.

There’s a new restaurant in Liberty Village that’s definitely a welcome addition. Cinquecento Trattoria (109 Atlantic Ave.) is all about homestyle Italian and at lunch it’s all about custom creating a plate that’s got exactly what you want on it.

This past Thursday my dear friend Elena had the wonderfully spontaneous idea of having dinner at the Dufferin Grove Farmers’ Market. Held year round from 3-7pm every Thursday, it’s a lovely place to grab a snack, pick up some fruit or veggies and have a picnic. I was starving when we arrived and headed straight to the stand run by ChocoSol Traders, lured by their promise of a $5 Quesadilla.
Check out how the Corn Tortilla is made-to-order. Read on to see the finished product.

Eating at Olive & Bonacini’s latest venture, O&B Canteen (330 King Street W.) can be a truly blissful experience. Just check out the facial expression of my pal Jason, who’s clearly lost himself in the perfectly scrambled eggs. But there’s much more than traditional breakfast offerings here at the Canteen, including a butty or two.

At the end of June, I received this postcard from my eating pal C.Wong who was ecstatic about her meal at the newly opened Enoteca Sociale (1288 Dundas Street West). I hold her food opinions in high regard and the simple, post-marked rave review indicated that a visit of my own was in order.
How did my experience live up to the smudged words scrawled on the postcard? Read on to find out.
