Taste five very different sides of Canada in one Toronto journey.
Begin with Toronto’s famous peameal bacon sandwich and an Ontario butter tart inside historic St. Lawrence Market. Continue with one of Canada’s most familiar everyday traditions—coffee and a snack at Tim Hortons—before entering the Distillery District for a taste of Ontario icewine.
Then walk toward Lake Ontario and finish the experience with a warm BeaverTail pastry on the Toronto waterfront.
Rather than focusing on one market or one style of food, this experience uses five iconic tastes to tell the story of Toronto and Canada—from historic market food and Ontario baking traditions to coffee culture, wine country, and a beloved Canadian dessert.

Follow it with a traditional butter tart, one of Ontario's classic sweet treats. Then discover another side of the province with a small Ontario icewine tasting at a participating wine merchant. Learn how Ontario's cold winters make it possible to produce this intensely sweet wine and why Canadian icewine became internationally recognized.
