Where to order authentic deep dish pizza in Toronto
This online-only pizza joint might just make the best deep dish Toronto has to offer, but it doesn't come cheap. Currently on offer via Orderit.ca while the restaurant gauges the local market for Chicago-style pizza, the delivery charge is, however, made easier to stomach by the quality of the product.

In other words, you can grab something for lunch as well as some bread, soup, veggies and cheese for dinner tonight. "We don't want people to be 'food sleuths,'" Aruna Handa, the head of Alimentary Initiatives tells me, "we want to bring food to where people already go. We're trying to make local, organic food convenient."

Cass McCombs charms the crowd at the Garrison
Cass McCombs' show at the Garrison this Friday night was a treat for all those in attendance. The opener, Frank Fairfield — a violin and banjo-toting songwriter from California — set the stage with whimsical, southern-style tunes that had the crowd tapping their feet and clapping along with the occasional "Yip!" hollered into the night.

A new entrant into the gourmet grilled cheese fray
Grilled cheese sandwiches are kind of like Honda Civics — as completely satisfactory as the base models are, they also beckon to be souped up (no pun intended). And since Toronto's no slouch when it comes to gourmet grilled cheese joints, I was curious to see how this much-hyped new addition to the scene would fare. If you've got your own speciality ketchup, after all, the sandwiches better be damn good. Find out more in my review of Cheesewerks in the restaurants section.
