15 h. ago Thousands of dollars raised for talented Toronto baker battling cancer

A GoFundMe campaign launched for Aya, a Toronto baker and pastry chef known for her talent and commitment to her craft, has raised thousands of dollars as she faces a challenging cancer diagnosis. The fundraiser was launched by Kelsey Blackwell, Strategy and Creative Direction at Blackbird Baking Co., where Aya previously worked before joining Evelyn's Wholegrain Bakery. Back in April, Aya was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. According to the campaign, she began treatment immediately and stepped away from her baking duties to focus on her health. The fundraiser highlights her resilient spirit, quoting Aya in a recent post where she shared her diagnosis. "Here are my favourite bakeries," she wrote. "I promise their treats cure you and make you smile." Blackwell highlighted the close-knit nature of the city's food scene, telling blogTO, "The Toronto food community is incredibly generous; we all work hard a...

36 h. ago 50 trees in shopping carts will parade down the streets of Toronto this weekend

This weekend, Toronto is about to get a lot greener, and a just a little more quirkier.On Saturday, July 5, dozens of trees will roll their way down to the city's waterfront as part of The Bentway's whimsical new public art installation, Moving Forest.Picture this: 50 real trees in shopping carts, being pushed across the city by volunteers, forming temporary pop-up canopies in some of Toronto's sunniest and most exposed spaces.Yes, it's exactly as it sounds. Do I have your attention?Created by Amsterdam-based NL Architects, Moving Forest is both a playful spectacle and a serious statement. The initiative supports Toronto's ambitious goal to grow its tree canopy to 40 per cent by 2050, a plan that's as much about community well-being and environmental sustainability as it is about urban design.But sparking city-wide engagement with trees? That takes a little imagination.Cue the parade.Starting from The Bentway at 250 Fort York Blvd, at 1:00 pm, the t...

38 h. ago Toronto neighbourhood throwing a surprise street festival this weekend

Toronto's Baldwin Village is about to come alive this Saturday, July 5, as local merchants band together for an impromptu street party that promises to bring big energy to one of the city's most underrated neighbourhoods.The one-day celebration will feature a dynamic mix of music, food, art, and dance, plus at least a couple of artisan markets; there's the potential for a surprise fashion show, too! Each business along Baldwin is curating its own lineup of talent, and so far, the street is shaping up to host a mix of live bands, DJs, visual artists, and performers.It's a grassroots event in every sense. There's no formal street closure (yet), no major sponsors, or flashy branding; it’s just a collective effort by independent business owners who want to breathe new life into this little tucked-away village. Despite being home to some of the most charming patios and low-key restaurants in the city, it still flies under the radar for many Torontonians. But thi...

40 h. ago Shuttered Toronto Mexican spot reopens in new location with beer garden

A Toronto restaurant from one of the city’s most well-regarded chefs has just been replaced with a new Mexican restaurant and beer garden.It was the closure heard around the city when renowned Toronto chef, Anthony Rose, decided to close the doors on Fet Zun, the quasi-sister location to Toronto's much-loved Fat Pasha.Okay, maybe it wasn't quite that big of a deal, but it still came as a shock to the scores of Annex locals who frequented the restaurant.Boasting a massive indoor footprint, as well as ample backyard space (which housed Madame Boeuf and Flea, its burger pop-up) and a spacious front patio, the restaurant, despite being open year-round, was particularly a summertime staple.Lingering dormant since Fet Zun's closure in December of 2024, the question loomed large as to what would replace it for months. What could possibly be worthy of the prized piece of Dupont real estate?Now, we finally have an answer.As of June 27, Fet Zun's old locat...

A tattoo isn't a decision that many (this writer aside) take lightly — between the meaning, the cost and, you know, the permanence of it — but if some new ink is something that's been on your mind for a while, there's no better place to get it this weekend than the first-ever iteration of a new Toronto tattoo show.Ink the 6ix Toronto is the most recent addition to the city's ever-growing body art scene, promising more than 200 artists from around the globe and across the gamut of styles in one place.Founders Luis and Tina Puedmag of Toronto shop Puedmag Inkpire say that they've wanted to start their own expo like this for years, having more than a combined four decades in the industry — including years on the convention circuit — under their belts."When you have been part of the industry so long, it becomes a part of you, and tattoo conventions were always a place you could celebrate that,&...

A Toronto pizza restaurant was just ranked as one of the best in the world, making it one of just two Canadian restaurants to earn the distinction.Sure, Naples and Rome might get all the glory when it comes to pizza — heck, even New York City, Chicago and Detroit get plenty of recognition — but, for its part, Toronto all too often tends to fly under the radar. It shouldn't be that way, but that's the way it is.As the third annual Best Pizza Awards took over Milan on June 25, though, pizzerias, from around the world got the chance to put their pies centre stage and earn some well-deserved credit for their renditions of the Italian staple.It should come as no surprise to those in the know about the city's sublime pizza scene that one Toronto pizzeria actually did end up ranking among the world's top 100 pizza restaurants at the 2025 awards.Coming as even less of a surprise, the sole Toronto pizzeria to make it on the ranking was none oth...
