Toronto Vegans - Opinion on Pizzaiolo and delicious treats

[wefoughtharder]

I'm visiting Toronto soon, and am pretty sure I'll want to get pizza delivered to my hotel room while i lounge and take advantage of their pay-per-view movie selection. I'll be staying near the financial district (i think?) near the intersection of University and Queen. At any rate, I saw that Pizzaiolo is nearby, delivers, AND has vegan pizza.  Is

pizzaiolo is pretttty decent. there's one right by my work and i get it far too much for my own good.

greenavi (on queen, in between bathurst & spadina) has a delicious vegan cheesecake. their coffee is amazing as well, and their entire menu is completely organic and fair trade. highly recommended!

also recommended is sadie's diner on portland & adelaide (just a short walk southeast from queen & bathurst). it's all vegetarian/mostly vegan. my personal favourite menu item is the breakfast burrito but they also make some pretty tasty smoothies--and i believe their coffee is also fair trade, but i'm not sure about organic?

i could probably come up with more suggestions if i weren't so brain dead. toronto is a pretty easy city to live in as a vegan and i like eating out far too much for my own good.

thank you so much! ooooh, this greenavi place will be my jam when I have down-time. <3

no probs! it's a really nice place, really chill atmosphere and it's owned by the cutest little asian family.
and if you have any other questions about toronto i'm happy to answer! toronto's a pretty fun city in my personal opinion.

I am able to catch Living in Toronto here in Detroit & I'm always so envious or Torontonians (but envious in a good way) ^-^

you are probably right -- as much as i love greenavi, most of their pastries are not baked on premises (something i forgot to mention) but from other bakeries around toronto. i just mentioned because i love the place/i live in the area so i go a there a lot. plus i love the idea of an all organic/fair trade coffee shop so i try to plug the place as much as possible because i really want it to thrive~

oh, and i definitely meant to mention both those kensington places! seriously, in general kensington is a great place to visit (besides tasty vegan food, it has some great vintage shops). so, seconded on those.

i. love. you. pistachio is my favorite ice cream of all time and i have only had it ONCE since being vegan. seriously, i'm nauseous with excitement.
