While food is delicious all year round, summer is the best time to spend your day outside exploring cafés, restaurants, trattorias, and more. The Emery Crossing neighbourhood happens to be the perfect backdrop to soak in the last weeks of summer. It is home to many such eateries that you will definitely find yourself wanting to visit again! This little neighbourhood is packed with spots that offer authentic food with homely service from various cuisines making it an unforgettable experience.
On that note, let’s explore the best of the Emery Crossing neighbourhood:
Karahi Point
Do your tastebuds a favour and dive into the flavourful Pakistani cuisine at Karahi Point! To ensure you get the best of Karahi Point, all ingredients are locally-sourced, the meat is 100% halal, and all spices are made in-house. They go above and beyond to quality-control every ingredient. Everything is worth a try, from Bihari Kabab to a wide variety of Chicken Karahis. They are also known to host giveaways on their Instagram, so be sure to check them out before you visit!
Panino Cappucino
This rustic Italian eatery is surely one that you don’t want to miss out on. With a cozy bistro vibe, fresh-from-the-oven bread, scrumptious pasta, and delicious slow-cooked meats – this place should be on every food lover’s radar.
Pho Cuu Long Mien Tay
Located in Jane-Sheppard Centre, Pho Cuu Long Mien Tay is hailed for their friendly customer service, affordable prices, and exceptional Vietnamese flavours! They have the crunchiest fish sauce wings, and paired with their coconut sticky rice – this combination happens to be a crowd favourite. They also have a quaint dining area both indoors and outdoors which may not be fancy but if you’re a food lover, we recommend checking them out!
Comal Y Canela
Comal Y Canela offers a truly authentic Mexican dining experience with their personable service and flavour-packed food. They whip up delicious tacos, burritos, enchiladas and even a Mexican version of Poutine! If you’re someone with a bit of a sweet tooth, you should definitely try their Mexican rendition of a Tiramisu, ‘Mi Vida’. And if you’d like to shake things up, try the ‘Fresh Mango & Chamoy’ for the iconic mango and chilli flavour kick.
Nino D’Aversa Bakery
This Italian-style trattoria offers a plethora of dessert options, baked goods, pizza, pastries, and so much more. They specialize in fine gelato prepared with traditional Italian methods, much similar to their Pasticceria balancing the sweet and savoury flavours quite perfectly. They also provide their freshly-baked bread to many cafeterias and restaurants, so if you’re visiting be sure to grab a loaf for yourself and enjoy the deliciousness of the traditional European baking process!
