In recent years, Bloordale has shed its reputation as a rough neighbourhood and become home to entrepreneurs who want to try something new.

This one-woman operation serves up the best Jamaican patties downtown. They are the perfect quick bite—with flakey pastry and perfectly seasoned meat or vegetables. It’s a little more expensive than your average heat lamp patties, but it’s well worth it. And don’t forget to try a curry, jerk, or roti.
