Come taste an appetizing creation at Bar Centrale di Terroni. They are open at night all week and are readily accessible by public transit but also by bicycle. They are established in a surrounding filled with restaurants and stores.
One word: Pandolci. What are they? Don’t worry about it, they involve Nutella and a Scandinavian spin on the American pancake. But proceed with caution, these mini pancake doughballs may just have you drooling all over the table if you’re not careful. Available at midtown’s sexiest Italian osteria for weekend brunch, this derivation of the flapjack-dear is a must try for any hotcake connoisseur.
The family of Terroni restaurants is currently eight-strong in Toronto (with two additional locations in L.A.), each spot boasting its own vibe. Bar Centrale is a daytime café that turns exclusive wine bar when the sun goes down. Fresh insalate and antipasti selections complement a range of handmade pastas, all of which pair perfectly with a vino chosen from Terroni’s lengthy wine list. Like most of the culinary empire’s restaurants, this one gets packed, but its umbrella-covered rooftop overlooking hurried Yonge Street is worth the wait, sure to dissipate any waiting-irritation with its romantic wood panelling and warm fairy lights.
