4 h. ago Director of Pixar hits dishes up her top Toronto restaurants

Toronto director Domee Shi is a well-documented lover of the city, and she stopped by to share her favourite restaurants in town.While her latest film, Disney Pixar's Elio, doesn't take place in Toronto, Shi's filmography proves adequate evidence of her love for the city she grew up in, particularly seen in her last major feature, Turning Red, which was set in Toronto.Despite the broadening of Shi's cinematic horizons, Toronto maintains a tender spot in the director's heart, and on a recent visit to the city to promote Elio, she sat down to share some of her favourite places to eat when she's back home.The fact that dim sum is the first cuisine Shi seeks out in the city comes as little surprise, given the director's proclivity for depicting Chinese cuisine and culture in her films (hello, have you seen Bao?). She explains that Chinatown's Rol San is her ultimate go-to.    View this post on Instagram     &nb...

5 h. ago Toronto restaurant with Michelin nod opens offshoot for its famous burgers

The team behind a Michelin-recommended Toronto restaurant just made an unexpected move: opening a new burger joint in the city.Names like Rasa and Sara — at least in the context of food — usually conjure up images of chic interiors, artfully plated dishes and pristine cocktails served in paper-thin crystal glasses. It's that exact commitment to refinement and luxury that has earned them both spots on Toronto's Michelin Guide, after all; Sara with a recommendation and Rasa with a Bib Gourmand.The latest venture from The Food Dudes Group, the team behind both celebrated spots, is treading into more casual territory, though. How juicy.For their next trick, The Food Dudes have launched Rasa Burger, an offshoot of Rasa based entirely around a dish (and I bet you can guess which one it is) that's been one of the restaurant's best-sellers since its inception."Rasa has been around for over a decade, and two dishes have really st...
