queen for a day

April 5, 2007

Here with, an afternoon of shopping and drinks on Toronto’s Queen Street
West.

drink

 

Clafouti Patisserie & Café, 915 Queen Street
West, 416-603-1935
Francophiles will love Clafouti’s perfectly sized
and ultra-flaky croissants, mouth-watering brioche and piping hot café
allongé. It’s clearly the café for Queen Street West’s hipster types
(enter Maggie Gyllenhaal lookalikes with tiny tot in tow) and pastry
connoisseurs.

 

eat

 

Terroni, 720 Queen Street West, 416-504-0320
Score a
seat at the bar and watch as everyone from local politicos to the
Globe’s style reporters sip on Chianti and dine on must-haves like lemon
spaghettini and thin crust pizzas.

 

shop

 

Delphic, 706 Queen Street West, 416-603-3334
It’s
impossible not to scoop up minimalist finds from J. Lindberg, Filippa K
and Acne at this edgy boutique post your Chianti-drenched lunch at
Terroni’s.

 

The Paper Place, 887 Queen Street West, 416-703-0089, www.thepaperplace.ca
You’ll
spend hours perusing the beautiful Japanese paper, letter pressed note
cards, unique journals and other pretty gift items (don’t miss the tea
tins) at this little gem of a stationary shop.
