Can't decide between Caribbean or Italian? Why not go for both at this casual Kensington Market spot. Try the jerk chicken panini, or the traditional curries with rice and peas (beans if you're not familiar.) You'll often see the owners in store working at this popular eatery. Seating is small and limited, so it's more of a takeout spot. Enjoy on the street or the park nearby.

Almost secret backyard bar in Kensington Market. Located in a behind a small mall, the bourtyard area has an inexpensive, no frills bar, a DJ, and a vendor selling dumplings just outside the door. The best time to go is on a hot Sunday afternoon and the place gets packed. Be sure to arrive by 2:30-3:00 pm, as the queue builds up fast and the space is small!

Whether you consider this to be street art or graffiti it is not to be missed if you enjoy modern art. Each summer for the past few years, a group called Style in Progress has taken over graffiti alley for a 24-hour period of legal painting. CBC Comedian Rick Mercer often films his famous weekly TV on air Commentary while walking through Graffiti Alley using the Murals as his backdrop. Go during the daytime to see the murals (they make cool photo backdrops!) as there are no streetlights.
