The cocktail craze hit Toronto a couple of years ago (yes, we were a little late on this one), and has yet to show signs of slowing down. While there have long been places to get a good drink in this city, the difference these days is that it's become a given that almost every new restaurant will have a cocktail menu. I find this hard to complain about. A wider selection of booze is a welcome thing, and Toronto's bartenders know that they have to stay on top of their game given the competition out there.
