Time for a shoutout for one of my fave Toronto spots - 🤤

This bake shop in Leslieville serves up the most incredible brownies (and other treats), with a rotating menu of 6 flavours that changes every month. This month I tried the Cinnamon Churro & Snickers brownies and the way these got demolished was impressive… seriously, you’ve never had anything like them. Every time I try a new flavour there’s a moment of “damn, this might be the best thing I’ve ever eaten”… And for good reason! Owner & operator Marchelle has an incredible background, including stints at Michelin-starred restaurants, and you can taste this in every. single. bite.

If you have a chance to stop by before July hits please give these two a try (I promise you’re in for a trip to flavourtown) - and if not, I can guarantee next month’s brownies are going to be 💣 too.

📍 Butter and Spice Bakeshop, 1125 Gerrard St E

Have you been to the new Electric Diner Lister Block location yet? I stopped by this past weekend for a birthday brunch celebration for one of my besties and it was 💣 I recommend making a reservation on the weekend — they’re packed!

I had:
🍳 Electric Benny 2.0 - poached eggs on the fluffiest cornflake crusted French toast with bacon, hickory sticks + hollandaise - sooooo good. I need it again.
🍹Pretty in Pink - a little sweet (but not too sweet) with lots of brightness. Also very, very tasty. And, of course, a mimosa!
