✈ Keeping Kosher in Toronto, ON

Dani Klein - Admin — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 20:37:21 +0000

Contributed by: Dani Klein | Last Date of Travel: June 2009

It’s hard to believe we haven’t had a post on Toronto yet, the 2nd largest Jewish community outside of Israel. Recently, I’ve had the privilege of visiting Toronto on multiple occasions and trying much of their great food.

Kosher Info: The largest Jewish city north of the American border does not disappoint when it comes to kosher options. Throughout the Jewish neighborhoods, kosher food are plentiful.

The Jewish community is saturated along Bathurst Ave. which runs North to South into the downtown district. The majority of the restaurants are located on, or fairly close to, Bathurst Ave. So when in doubt, drive up or down Bathurst, and you will inevitably find numerous kosher options.

The Bathurst / Lawrence neighborhood hosts some classic Toronto establishments:

Tov Li – amazing pizza, falafel, and other pizzeria goodies. (I was actually quite impressed with this place)
Jewels & Java – a unique combo of jewelery store and cafe.
Umami Sushi – a highly recommended sushi place by the locals (I haven’t tried it so I cant confirm)
Dairy Treats - a great breakfast place

Further north, near Wilson Ave., you’ll be able to find:

Marky’s – a traditional deli that evoked mixed reactions from Torontonians
King David Pizza – whose pizza did not look fresh to me – so I stayed away
Donut Delight – not quite Dunkin Donuts

North of the city limits, the Thornhill neighborhood of Vaughan, ON houses a densely populated Jewish suburban area. At one strip mall at Clark & Hilda Aves you can find:

D-Lite’s – a quaint sit down dairy eatery with salads, great sushi (I recommend getting yours tempura style if you like things fried like me), and even some poutine (a traditionally French Canadian side dish consisting of French fries, melted cheese, and gravy – non meat of course). The service was not so great, but not awful considering the few waiters on hand.
Miami Grill is a popular fleishig establishment with all the usual grilled favorites including steak and burgers.
Second Cup - this special branch of the coffee chain is entirely certified kosher.
Sobeys – a local supermarket chain all over Toronto – this particular branch has everything made in house certified kosher including a bakery, butcher, fish and appetizing sections. This is truly something you can’t even find in New York.

Tourist Info:
Toronto is a cultural hub for Canada, with a mix of American and European flavors. In the summer time, Toronto is filled with tons of outdoor events. (I suspect they’re spending the freezing winter months pining for the nice days of summer to be outdoors). Each year the Jewish community holds a Jewish culture festival and an Israel fair. Head to the Harbourfront on Lake Ontario, as there are numerous outdoor vendors and nearby museums.

If you’re anywhere near downtown, you wont be able to miss the CN Tower which marks the city’s skyline. Also downtown is the Hockey Hall of Fame.

On the corner of Bathurst & Bloor you’ll find a Toronto relic, Honest Ed’s – a carnival-like, discount shopping experience. Further down Bloor you’ll find major shopping malls and shops.

Highly recommended is the Royal Ontario Museum, better known as the ROM.

Jewish Info: The Jewish community is large and visible. I make a distinction between Toronto and New York, because in Toronto the community is somewhat condensed (along Bathurst Ave.) and everywhere you go you see Jewish signs, Israeli flags, posters, etc. In NY, you could be driving through the Jewish areas of Manhattan or Long Island and sometimes not know the difference. Chabad is very active in Toronto, with a few visible houses, and a large one in Thornhill.

Nearby in Thornhill, you’ll be able to find the famous BAYT (pronounced “Bayit” like ‘house’ in Hebrew), which is a massive orthodox shul, with multiple minyanim of all types, which boasts a wedding hall and multiple kiddush clubs.

When visiting Toronto, you shouldn’t find trouble finding a warm place to stay for Shabbat.

✈ Keeping Kosher in Ottawa, ON

Josh Margo — Thu, 22 May 2008 05:15:36 +0000

Contributed by: Josh Margo | Last Date of Travel: [Author lives in Ottawa]

Kosher Info: Although its a great city there is limited spots for kosher food. The Rideau Bakery with two spots has some great bakery items. A location in the heart of downtown on Rideau Street and a newer one on Bank(between Heron and Walkley). The one downtown has a little cafe attached to it. Both location have packaged deli products. They also run a small Cafe in the SJCC. Besides that there is a great kosher section at the Loblaws grocery store in College Square with prepared food and great selection of all sort of kosher food.

Tourist Info: There are some great festivals during the summer. Who new flowers could be so much fun but the Tulip festival attracts so many people that they have added some entertain along the street to hype the crowd! There is the New War Museum, and the great Science a Technology Museum and the Museum of Civilization. How could you leave out a tour of Parliament Hill. Right next to parliament Hill are two hot spots Rideau center and the Byward market.

There are some great hiking and camping areas just outside the city in the Gatineau area.

Jewish Info: Although the community is not that big, there is a synagogue for each type. If you like a cantor look no further than Machzikei Hadas, although its really formal. There is nothing like a dvar torah from the world renown Rabbi Bulka. There is a great Kollel which is right next to the SJCC. Of course there are two Beth Shaloms. There is one downtown which is traditional and the other one is dubbed “Beth Shalom West” is a classical Zionist synagogue (soon to be renamed Beth Tikvah). And of course there is a Chabad (actually I think there are about 4 now in the city).

✈ Keeping Kosher in Niagara Falls, ON / NY

Dani Klein - Admin — Tue, 04 Jul 2006 19:05:13 +0000

Contributed by: Dani Klein | Last Date of Travel: July 2006

Kosher Info: Kosher food in the Niagara region can only be found on the Canadian side, or in Buffalo (about 20+ min. away). Directly near the falls there is a dairy restaurant: King David Bakery which carries decent pizza, sandwiches, Israeli products, and bakery items. Chabad recommends Mendy’s Kosher Niagara, although I was not there. Here are Chabad’s listings for the area: Kosher Niagara.

Tourist Info: The falls are breathtakingly beautiful no matter who you are. There are fun activities on both the American and Canadian sides, however the fun tourist-y atmosphere exists by the hotels and attractions on the Canadian side of the Rainbow Bridge. Best time to visit is July 1-4, as July 1st is Canadian Independence Day and July 4th is American Independence Day, all 4 days are used to celebrate both countries; fireworks each night around 10pm.

American Attractions:

Canadian Attractions:

Jewish Info: There isn’t much history here. Contact the Chabad of Niagara which can help you with minyanim, mikvah, Shabbat, and food situations.
