Their drinks tasted great and looked really aesthetic pleasing we got the purple kiss and hot Vietnamese latte. Definitely want to try their strawberry matcha next time (it looked so good). We also got their Oreo Croffle and ham & cheese croffle. I liked their Oreo croffle more but they were both cooked beautifully. The staff was also very kind, greeting us, and made our drinks very quickly! They are a bit small so it might be harder to get a seat on the weekends

"Wait, this is a cafe???" was my exact reaction when I first went down the flight of stairs to…read moreenter the underground Playground Cafe. Part museum, part hipster dive, part lounge, Playground certainly serves up a unique cafe experience with its art installations and concrete bunker-type layout and seating. As for the actual cafe part, it was pretty good. For drinks, got the salted creme coffee and bac xiu - both were a bit too sweet for my tastes though a definite treat. For pastries, got the cassava custard which was rich without being overly indulgent, and the chocolate cruffle where the cream was the star. Overall, Playground is vibe first, cafe second. Worth the experience.

I get the craving for a fancy high tea once a year, and this year's choice was a T-Buds. Located on…read morethe second floor, it is easy to bypass this without realizing it is there. We made reservations for a Saturday 11 AM early lunch and had the whole place to ourselves for the entire time. We shared a high tea set and added a sandwich plate, which was perfect for two light eaters. They have a very impressive tea collection to choose from and our server was very patient as we tried to deliberate over our choices. Lovely quiet space to spend a couple hours over a cup of tea.

I ordered this to go so I can't speak to the in person ambiance, but I thought the food was…read morephenomenal. The portion size for the price was impressive, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. The stand out was the mini quiche (I don't usually like quiche that much but this one was great!) It travelled super well via delivery app and was a great substitute for in person tea when I didn't have time to go anywhere in person during a work trip. I'd definitely recommend!

The coffee was average though. I tried their mocha and thought it would be a little more chocolaty but I was a little disappointed. The natas were good but my favourite was the chocolate mousse. Very creamy and the flavour was really good. We also tried the ham and cheese sandwich and I thought it was very well done! Overall a pretty good cafe to spend some time at.

Even though I have never been to Portugal this place certainly has that European vibe. It's a cozy…read morespot that has really good sandwiches and Portuguese tarts We ordered the Carnita sandwich and it took about 20 minutes to heat up. The sour dough bread was perfect with the meat and cheese. We also tried the Portuguese tarts and they were super fresh. Right out of the oven!! We loved it so much :). The custard wasn't too heavy. We also ordered these tiny pastries that taste and look like mini empanadas. They were amazing too :) We went back to order more food because we enjoyed it so much. The wait was longer this time round so they offered us a box of Portuguese tarts for the wait - which was so sweet and kind. We try appreciated that! Total unexpected. The latte was amazing too. Definitely would go back!!

We've been to Kanafani twice now. The cafe has a really nice interior, good music and well lit…read more Feels very much like you've been transported to somewhere else. Parking can be a bit busy but usually okay. The service both times has been patient and kind to explain the various options. We decided to go with a milk cake with half lotus and half Dubai chocolate. The cake is soaking in milk which gives it a "wet cake" texture. I imagine it may not be everyone's favorite texture but has decent flavor. The crunchy topping contrasts against the soft, moist cake. The lotus has that nice cookie flavor and crunch while the Dubai chocolate with pistachio offers that chocolate and nutty flavor. I prefer the latter but both are good. We also got a matcha strawberry latte to go. Both really nice to look at and to drink. The matcha has good flavor without being overly bitter while the strawberry provides that fruity sweetness to the drink. Overall, it's a pricier experience but I enjoyed it and will be back.

Another day orderd from uber eats but mistakenly they didn't provide me the drink but I ordered again the emotional part they sent me a note with two chocolate bars. It touched my heart.

The restaurant is on the second floor, and the entrance is on the side of the building…read more It's a very pretty cafe, and there was a good mix of people working there on laptops, as well as couples on dates and families getting brunch. They have an extensive menu, and it all looks really good! We got the Chicken Karaage and Croffles, which really hit the spot if you like sweet and savory food! The Karaage was really well done and complimented the croffles. We also got the creme brulee souffle pancakes, which were well done! However, I do wish there was more of a caramelized top for the creme brulee. In hindsight I do wish I got a more interesting flavor like Ube or Pistachio since they have a good selection of flavors, but the creme brulee was still pretty tasty! I'd say order another flavor instead though. The souffle pancakes also take 20min to prepare which took longer than their other dishes, but as long as you're sharing plates and can eat something else until it comes then it's all good! Staff was really nice and attentive. Definitely coming back and trying more of their menu!

CAFE N ONE . …read more Cafe n One is probably one of my favourite "new" restaurants that I tried recently. Located on the 2nd floor at Yonge and Finch, Cafe n One is a bright, cute cafe serving Japanese inspired brunch items, drinks, pastas and desserts. . . Classic Breakfast 4/5 Chicken Karaage 3/5 Croffles 5/5 Green Tea Soufflé Pancake 4.3/5 Latte 4.8/5 . . We arrived around 10 minutes after open and there were already a handful of people seated. The drinks and food came out pretty quickly except the soufflé pancakes which takes 25minutes to prepare. My favourite was the croffle. For $10, you get 2 big pieces of croffle which tastes great with either whipped cream or syrup. The chicken karaage was kind of dry on its own, but dipping it in the syrup and eating it with the croffle made it better. If you want a hearty breakfast, the classic breakfast is a solid choice. The soufflé pancake was fluffy and delicious, well worth the wait. I was amazed by the detailed latte art as well. Highly recommend this cafe!
