Vitamin Daily

With baked goods this good, it’s no wonder our server gained 15lbs in Woodlot’s first month in business. “I’m on a diet,” she says. “Please take some of these fresh-out-the-oven buns before I eat them.”

Soft buns, flaky nutella croissants, apple tatin and blueberry scones are just some of the scrumptious things on offer today. By day, Woodlot is a bakery, and by night it’s one of Toronto’s hippest hangouts with an honest, comfort-food menu that warms and delights.

Both the Red Fife parpadelle in a rich wild boar ragu ($20 main) and the roasted haddock gratin  ($19) are tummy-rubbingly good while for dessert the Soma chocolate Pot de Crème ($12) is to die for.

Just leave your diet at the door.
