The 38 Best Restaurants in Toronto, Canada | Eater

"Launching a pop-up in 2018, building a legion of followers on social media, relocating from his Dundas West digs to a plush 26-seater in Kensington Market — through it all, chef Jerome Robinson has stayed faithful to fried chicken. Case-in-point: the lethargy-inducing Big Ass Mac and Cheese, a carb-lover’s dream consisting of five cheeses blended with macaroni and topped with two deep-fried thighs tossed in Carolina butter sauce. Pair it with the creamy cabbage coleslaw, a valiant attempt at your daily vegetables. The ’90s hip-hop vibes and local graffiti from the old space permeate the new one, but now there’s an intimate four-seater rail bar where you can watch all the action unfold in the kitchen. Vibe check: Thumping ’90s hip-hop and local graffiti give a high-energy feel, but there’s also an intimate four-seater rail bar where you can watch all the action unfold in the kitchen." - Tiffany Leigh
