One of the things that surprises me about Toronto, and I'm not sure why, is the variety of food found here. The other night, my coworker wanted to go to a particular Jamaican restaurant. We must have passed 2 or 3 before arriving at Irie Food Joint. I don't even know of 1 Jamaican place in SF, much less more than that.
Irie was fantastic. Great drinks, delicious roti and some of the best plantains I have ever eaten. When we first walked in, the manager (owner?) asked if we would like menus. I responded, "That would be helpful." After it was out of my mouth I realized how snotty that sounded, but he just laughed and said, "I like you already." We got to sit outside on the patio, it was such a lovely night that we didn't need the heaters or jackets. I love that about Toronto!
