Chefs Danvee Kwok & Kevin Shawcross describe their new Dundas West restaurant Ayla Upstairs as a love letter to Hong Kong. Inspired by their travels and deep-rooted memories, the menu is a mix of comforting nostalgia and exciting new flavours. Situated above Patois, it’s a natural extension of this beloved Toronto restaurant. #PhreshLocal #PhreshFeast #RockVision

Can’t forget the ๐ŸŒ or I’m getting flamed ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Details ⬇️ I am sharing a new cheap eats spot almost every week, so make sure to follow if you want to see more! My only criteria when picking spots are 1) you can eat a filling meal under $15 pre-tax and pre-tip 2) the food is genuinely delicious. This spot is Wanaag, located in Toronto’s East End at 224 Parliament St. For those that don’t know, Toronto is home to one of the world’s largest Somali diaspora communities. Yet, I don’t think most folks that live here have given the cuisine a try. Let’s change that! Below is everything we ordered, stars indicate my absolute faves: - $23 goat ribs (awlal) platter with 2 lentil soups, 2 mango juices & hot sauce ⭐️ - $11.05 chicken suqaar wrap ⭐️ - $1 mandazi - $2.50 Somali tea ⭐️ - $1.50 samosa - $3 caramel cake HALAL AND GLUTEN FREE FRIENDLY #torontofood #torontocheapeats #greatertorontoarea #somalifood #halaltoronto #PhreshFeast #PhreshLocal #RockVision
