Bento C = Best Deal in Town: I probably eat Bento C once a week. Although I love all walks of fishy sushi, this box is vegetarian and almost impossible to finish it's so big. Soup, Salad, Tempura, Avocado rolls, deepfried tofu and edemmame...and only 7$ It's a no brainer!

Sneaky Brunch: I used to joke about going to Sneaky Dee's for brunch. I mean, just the thought of eating there during morning light was a bit distrubing. Lukily I had a foodie friend visiting who said they'd had Sneaky's breakfast recommended to them and so we tried it. To my surprise, the breakfast was actually delicious and super affordable. Just like the daytime menu, the brunch is mostly Mexican inspired food, with a "Gringo" section for some more traditional items like eggs Benny. I had the Burro Favorito and was really impressed. If you can get over the atmosphere (which is a little bit more sketch during the day) then you're in for a great, cheap brunch that serves until 4

Osogood Pastries & Sandwiches

Baked Goods and Sandwiches: This is easily my favorite bakery and sandwich place in all of Toronto. Everything is made from scratch with delicious, fresh ingredients and the prices are really reasonable. I’m actually obsessed with the tuna sandwich. It has apples and sweet pickles in the mix and is piled between two fluffy pieces of light, homemade rye and topped with sprouts. Although there are only 3 stools, I usually opt to eat at Osogood because it’s so cozy and makes me feel warm all over. The owner is so endearing and friendly (especially towards children and dogs), and there is always a constant flow of regulars who come in to chat and grab a chocolate croissant or cheesecake brownie, that I love to sit around and see who stops by.
