Cool bar that distills their own vodka and gin in a space from the salvaged St. Regis Hotel. The…read morespace is on Alexander where it's part lounge/bar and part distillery. It's located in a slightly quiet area but despite walking there around 9 and leaving after 11 on a Saturday night there were no issues. No coffee, wines or beers here but there are non-alcoholic drinks and of course loads of cocktails. Most cocktails are $13 and they even offer old school punch bowls (recall the ones our parents owned) except these are smaller ones and need a min of two people for $15 each. Food was just a few cheeseboards - one is a vegan cheese board too. Loved all of the cocktails we tried: - Golden bird - patent 5 vodka, apple jack, golden apple syrup, green strawberry bitters, Malic acid - espresso martini - patent 5 vodka, dogwood neon espresso and Kahlua - Long Island gimlet - patent 5 gin, rum, tequila, house cola cordial, citric acid. This was my favourite - maybe because it has a lot of liquor. Service was laid back yet helpful. Vibe was relaxed and welcoming. Just people having a cocktail and a good time. No pretension. Loved it. I will be back!

I really liked this cafe. It's tucked away but when you sit down it's easy to see all the cool…read moresculptures surrounding it. The chai tea was delicious. Perfectly not super sweet but I added a bit more milk and it helped cool it down because it was prepared warm. The Spiced Lentil plus Chickpea soup was kind of buttery and yummy, especially with the addition of the buttery bread that I am not sure about the type. The bread was really smooth and delicious. The large bowl of soup was a bit too big for me but the smaller bowl was the right size. The other food seem tasty too but the menu is not very big. The waitress was polite and she did not mind giving me an extra portion of milk when I asked. I find sculptures intriguing and marvellous. I really enjoyed looking at them. Be aware that they may ask you to put your backpack in a locker if you plan on checking everything out. I do recommend spending your funds here if you love art.

The menu inside the store didn't seem to list everything I saw in the online menu. I decided to try "Blue lavender". I think it's got tea in it but I tasted the milk the most. It was mostly all milk. It was good though! I wish it had been sweeter but I like the condiment bar near the table, I found honey and sugar there and was happy to mix it in my drink. All in all it's a really cute, cool little place with very nice staff members.

I bought a Caramel Flan and it was sweet and delicious in a subtle way. You could taste the egg ingredients in it. I felt it was very authentic and yummy! The other egg item I bought was the sweeter egg tart. The Tigeladas was almost too sweet but it was still interesting and delectable! I love that they sell macaroons here too! The bread pastry looks super appetizing with the fruit filling in the middle. I will probably be back some day soon to try more things!

Indeed, this a cute little Portuguese bakery; though I didn't encounter the friendly staff that…read moreKatherine W had experienced. The person who was behind the counter was kind of cold, maybe a case of the Mondays? I asked her about a few items but she really didn't want to answer me. I think she prefers the regulars who just come in, select their items quickly, pay and leave! I won't deduct stars against her less than warm reception because I enjoyed their pastries. I've had their water bread at O Tacho, across the street - it's a nice bread, with a chewier exterior. Their kaiser buns comes in packages of 6 and 12; a package of 6 is $1.30. The buns have a very flaky exterior and leave a ton of crumbs everywhere when you start eating it - not my fav. The turnovers (comes in apple and cherry) are HUGE ($1.25 each). I chose the apple turnover and I really enjoyed it since it wasn't overly sweet like the typical turnover. The egg or custard tarts are sold in a larger size if you want to buy in bulk but they are also sold prepackaged 6 smaller portions for $5.50. They're not the prettiest looking tarts since there's some caramelized spots on the custard (it looks burnt but it's not). The tarts remind me of creme brulee that's been encased in a tougher pastry shell - it's a sweet little treat that's worth trying! They are open 7 am to 5:30 pm Monday through Saturday, closed on Sundays. It's old school so no debit or credit, just plain ol' deniro is accepted.

This was my first time hearing about them being available in the city, so of course I had to go try it. The last time I had Portuguese egg tarts was when I was in Macau, and they were so amazing, so my expectations have already been set quite high. We got a package of 6. The shell of the egg tart was flaky, and there was a nice caramelization at the top. They were very good, but they weren't as good as the ones I've had in the past. Give them a try if you've never had a Portuguese egg tart before.

What's not to love about this place? It's a super friendly Portuguese grocery, bakery and eatery!!…read moreOh yeah, and they sell the juiciest, most amazing whole roasted chicken with piri piri sauce and potatoes for $15!!! I was very sad when I heard Chave D'Ouro closed as that was the first place I ever tasted Portuguese style roast chicken and potatoes and fell in love. Well, now this place has taken over that business by offering that as a take out - just order ahead, preferable 24 hours ahead but they said they can do it with 3 hours notice but 24 hours is best since it lets the chicken properly marinate. Their lunches are a hidden gem as you can get $5 lunches that are super yum. Seriously, where can you even get lunch for that price anymore??? Bifana, pork sandwich with caramelized onions, banana peppers and hot sauce goes for $3 or if you add on the soup of the day comes to $5. The home made soup was great, not salty at all, you can taste all the fresh veggies in there. So good. The bifana can be ordered with beef instead, called "prego" though pork is traditional. Wonderful sandwich with great flavours so get all the fixings. The bakery is another huge winner as it's still as good as I remembered from my last view a couple of years ago when they first opened. Their cinnamon buns are more doughy but I like that and has just enough cinnamon and brown sugar in there without it being too bloody sweet which I hate. Their baked items change daily but Saturday has the most flavours to choose from. You gotta try the chorizo in a bun for $3.50 - it's essentially a calzone, bread filled with sliced strips of home made chorizo (made in house, which you can buy as well) plus mozzarella. The wonderful guy working there who was super passionate about the food suggested getting this heated up and filled with caramelized onions if you eat it in store. Do the same if you take it home or add a fried sunny side up egg and make it a meal. I heated the chorizo bun in a toaster oven, cup the top open and placed a sunny side up egg and had the most delicious lunch. Great place to try so many yummy savoury and sweet items!!!! It's mostly take out though there are a handful of tables for you to sit and enjoy the food as well. Open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Thursday and Saturday, to 6 p.m. Friday.
