"Bars and pubs Wallace Emerson. What is it: Opened by a former software engineer and inspired by open-source coding, Halo proudly lists the ingredients and techniques used in every beer it brews online. While it’s highly unlikely we’d recreate their delightfully fruity and fresh New Wave IPA on our own, the venue gets a high five for operating with transparency."

"Tiny Halo Brewery is tucked away on Wallace Ave. in the Junction Triangle and the tap room makes good use of its small space. A few snacks, like soft pretzels and scones, are on offer but otherwise it’s all about the beer. Callum Hay and Eric Portelance began as homebrewers and are now making creative beers for the masses."

Enjoy your beer in the expansive restaurant with a menu that changes seasonally, but is comprised of pub favourites like nachos and wings and smaller snacks to share."

You can find Duggan’s new signature classics on LCBO shelves, and its rotating lineup of specialty beers in house at the Parkdale brewery. Try: The No. 9 IPA, Duggan’s hallmark pale ale."

"To-Ne Sushi is Chinatown’s popular spot for cheap, but delicious, sushi. Rolls average around $8, with a few topping out at around $12.95-$14.95 (these are meant for splurging), but maki and veggie rolls are more around the $4-$6 range. Sushi nigiri goes for about $4-$6 and sashimi for $5-$6, except for the expensive toro, or tuna belly."

"Serving up extremely fresh fish in the way of innovative rolls, Wow Sushi is no doubt worth every penny – and it doesn’t require many. Most rolls are $3-$8, with the most expensive at $10-$12, and sushi is $4-$7 for two pieces (unless you’re splurging for the tuna belly at $12); sashimi ranges a bit on the more expensive side – $6-$10 for four pieces – but the quality makes it well worth the extra dollar or two. Favourites include the dynamite roll, spicy salmon roll, japango roll, torched sea bream sushi and butterfish sushi."

"With a name like “Off the Hook“, you wouldn’t expect to find many vegan options. However, that couldn’t be farther from the truth!. While this is a seafood restaurant, there are lots of plant-based offerings on the menu and they’re all clearly marked with a V."
