President's Choice "1000 Tastes of Toronto" looks like will be a sleeper hit

Update: TasteTO has a schedule for this weekend along with a list of establishments.

There has been lots of talk about street food this year, with all those non-hotdog carts coming out on Victoria Day weekend. Part of the weekend Luminato festivities on Queens Quay and the Toronto waterfront is the President's Choice "1000 Tastes of Toronto".

We have to admit that when we saw President's Choice, we thought, well, about frozen food and package product. Yes, we have to admit that does not sound too appetizing.

That was until we spotted this post on Karmacake. If this is the true list, then our mouths are watering WE ARE READY TO EAT!

We are talking some of QQLs favourite restaurants: Amuse Bouche (King and Bathurst area, romantic setting), Edo (wicked Japanese) Globe Bistro (Canadian-themed cuisine on the Danforth), Seven Numbers (Italian, also on Danforth), Southern Accent (yummy Southern comfort food).

Not enough, how about Susur Lee (Lee and Madeline). How about 360 Restaurant or Auberge Du Pommier or Dhaba.

Even Lai Wah Heen, high high end Chinese, will be setting up shop, according to this list. And how can you not be near water and have something from Rodney's Oyster House.

The foodie vibe in our strip is going to get a whole lot more interesting this weekend.
