Meeting and Pickup

  1. Toronto is one of North America's most diverse food cities, where over 200 cuisines coexist authentically. From dim sum and pasta to world-class sushi and bold West African stews, every neighbourhood offers a new culinary adventure. Kensington Market is Toronto's most eclectic neighbourhood, a vibrant maze of vintage shops, street food, and global flavours. Fresh cheese, jerk chicken, Brazilian pastries, and craft beer all within a few blocks. It's chaotic, colourful, and completely unforgettable !

  2. We begin our journey in the heart of Kensington Market at Original Ka Chi. Here, you’ll dive into bold East Asian comfort food with a selection that may include spicy rice cakes (tteokbokki), glass noodles (japchae), and classic bibimbap options (beef, pork, chicken, or tofu), showcasing warming spices and rich, satisfying flavors.

  3. Next, we continue through the lively market streets to Fresco’s Fish and Chips. At this stop, you’ll enjoy sustainably sourced cod paired with a fresh kale salad, a crunchy and flavorful bite that proves comfort food can also be light and guilt-free.
