Probably the best Ethiopian eateries in toronto! 15 min walk away!try to arrive early to avoid lineup. Cheap platter serves 2-4 starting just over $10. It's hard to decide what's best here - the pleasant staff, the intimate atmosphere, or the more-than-reliably delicious food. Pick one of the eight menu items (it doesn't matter which, really) but the vegetarian platter is most popular, even among carnivores. Portions are big and the cost is about half of what you'd expect it to be. Cheap beer till late http://www.blogto.com/restaurants/nazareth

For better or worse, this Little Italy hole-in-the-wall has remained precisely the same for decades: the red-and-white tiles covering the walls (time has created a few gaps), the brown plastic menu sign behind the cash, the flour-dusted Mrs. Pac-Man arcade table which, miraculously, still works. And even though hipper, newer, arguably cleaner places have sprung up in the years since, Bitondo's still routinely sees long waits for pies and slices thanks to a following of locals loyal to their doughy, pale-crusted, greasy slices ($3.50) – not to mention the panzerottis and sandwiches. 11 Clinton, at Henderson, 416-533-4101

NORTH OF BROOKLYN Since landing on Queen West in 2014, NOB has built its success by reimagining what would otherwise be artisanal, fork-and-knife thin-crust pizza for the broke-ass bar crowd. Take their margherita, the star of their short slice menu: The crust is so thin it’s almost translucent, yet it somehow manages to avoid becoming soggy; the sauce is bright; the mozzarella is smooth and rich. And you can get that slice for $4.20 (har) – meaning you can tack on a tall can of brew and an order of garlic knots. 650-1/2 Queen West, at Palmerston, 647-352-5700; 469 Church, at Maitland, 647-980-7990; 1181 Dundas West, at Ossington, 647-927-5200; northofbrooklyn.com

With a couple of decades of cooking experience at Guu, Kingyo and some Tokyo kitchens under their belts, it’s fair to say Daisuke Gomyo and Sori Imanishi know their Japanese snacks. Earlier this year, they parlayed their long-running pop-up at Churchill into a permanent space, taking over a Portuguese sports bar just down the street on Dundas West. The spare room, decked out (ha) with skateboards and art mags, mimics the no-fuss family restaurants the duo loved back in Tokyo, while the menu presents faithful replicas of their country’s favourite drunk foods: ginger-glazed chicken wings sprinkled with sesame seeds ($7.50); rich, burnt-orange Nagoya ramen laced with ground pork and ginger ($9.

CXBO, as it's called for short, is home to the city's most Instagrammable chocolates - little geodesic domes of primary colour in perfectly imperfect boxes, each paint-spattered by hand. The company doesn't sell individual truffles, just nine- and 18-piece "collections," but the default selection includes knockout flavours like yuzu-sake and pistachio-orange-bergamot, so we doubt your sweetie will complain. For V-Day, they're doing romance with a twist: a "love boat" collection of tropical flavours. 1132 College, 416-588-2926, cxbo.ca. See listing.

For Soma owners David Castellan and Cynthia Leung, a married couple, chocolate is a labour of love: They laboriously produce bean-to-bar, single-origin chocolate in limited batches, on top of a massive slate of crowd-pleasing pralines, truffles, drinking chocolate and gelato. February specials for the lovers out there include a pale burgundy bar jam-packed (har) with raspberries, milk chocolate speckled with dried strawberries, and a white-chocolate mixed berry bar infused with Pop Rocks. 32 Tank House, 416-815-7662; 443 King West, 416-599-7662, somachocolate.com.

Fish tacos at Seven Lives You can find the best tacos in Toronto on Kensington Avenue. While prices have gone up over the years, the taqueria is still as busy as ever cooking up fish and seafood tacos done SoCal or Tijuana-style. Get the Pulpo or the Gobernador.

Bean and Baker Malt Shop is bringing back the mom'n'pop soda fountain to the city. Taking over the space that was previously the Bickford Flexitarian (and Linuxcaffe before that) at Harbord and Grace, this spot is a tribute to the 1940s and 1950s, replete with old-school diner decor, era-appropriate tunes and soda jerk outfits (who can resist those bow ties and hats?). http://www.blogto.com/restaurants/bean-baker-malt-shop-toronto/

Best meat for ALL YOU CAN EAT BBQ in koreatown. Jangwon Korean Cuisine is a Korean restaurant located close to the Christie TTC subway station which offers table cooking for Korean barbeque. While your clothes will definitely end up smelling a little smoky after an evening here, the all-you-can-eat menu, featuring favourites like bulgogi, is more than worth it. Nothing too fancy, just honest simple (and delicious) carnivorous fun for everyone. Don't forget the soju!

One of my favourite places in Toronto to dig into a big bowl of Dolsot Bibimbap is the basic but always busy Buk Chang Dong Soon To Fu in Koreatown . Dolsot Bibimbap is one of the perfect antidotes for the winter blahs. While traditionally served with beef, I opt for the "veggie" which comes with mushrooms, zucchini, spinach, sprouts and other vegetables, as well as a fried egg all served on top of a bed of rice in a hot stone bowl. Unlike some other places in the city, the bowl is decidedly hot which means the rice will develop a tasty, crispy if not slightly oily crust. Along with the Bibimbap comes an unlimited supply of free tea and an assortment of traditional Korean favourites such
