Brunch is one of my favourite meals of the day and the best part of my weekend. Toronto has its fair share of great brunch spots - here are the ones I frequent in my neighbourhood.

Insomnia Internnet Bar Cafe

563 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON, M5S1Y6

Home fries: They are gooey and glorious. The potatoes are crisp and covered in a delicious barbecue sauce. If you can get seated at one of the comfy couches in the back that's an added bonus.

Cantine Restaurant Bar

138 Avenue Rd, Toronto, ON, M5R2H6

Chicken and roasted tomato sandwich, Sunday brunch spot: Everything at Cantine is absolutely amazing, but their chicken and roasted tomato sandwich is definitely worth mentioning (and trying!)

The food is wonderful. I had an omelette with fried onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes, and it was so flavourful. The home fries are also quite delicious - there's a hint of paprika on them - and they are perfectly crispy. Overall, a great place to go with a large group.

Grapefruit Moon

968 Bathurst St, Toronto, ON, M5R3G6

Place to place trivial pursuit: This small, lively restaurant is great for brunch (had a fabulous omelette-quesadilla meal) but the true flavour of this place is found on the walls and shelves surrounding the tables...there's tons of interesting pieces of art for sale and free games to play while you dine, like trivial pursuit!

People's Foods Restaurant

176 Dupont St, Toronto, ON, M5R2E6

Greasy brunch: This place is totally old-school...every table has a mini juke box! This family-run place has a great brunch menu (try the smoothies too), you can also see the cooks fry up the eggs and potatoes before your very eyes...an overall great diner experience!

Ezra's Pound

238 Dupont St., Toronto, ON, M5R1V7

Cafe atmosphere: Ezra's Pound is that type of cafe where you can chill out with your laptop and watch hurried Dupont-ers go to and from the subway station...aside from the food and drinks it's a nice atmosphere with large tables, interesting/random paraphernalia and friendly baristas.
