Local vendor and restaurateur Bobby Mottola is thrilled the market, which was years in the making, is opening this Friday to the public.

“It is so unique. Every operator in the building is bringing something they are really, really good at,” said Mottola. “When you take a look around and see the fit and finish and the attention to detail that the landlord and other partners have put into place here, it is really quite something.”

Tous les restaurateurs de la nouvelle foire gastronomique, ouverte au public depuis le vendredi 15 novembre, ont été pris de court par l’engouement extrême autour du projet et par l’énorme volume de commandes. Au comptoir du Marusan, justement, on estime avoir servi environ 700 personnes les jours de fin de semaine et entre 400 et 500 en semaine.

Split Rock is a compact retail store comprising two shimmering rock-like objects on the concourse of Brookfield Place in Toronto’s Financial District.

The commute to the nation’s busiest transportation hub got sweeter with the opening of Biscotteria Forno Cultura, the third location of Toronto artisanal bakery café Forno Cultura, in Union Station’s Front Street promenade. Despite the huddled masses passing by the store, this is hardly a mass-market eatery. Indeed, the design mandate seemingly derives from high-end specialty-store interiors, where the challenge is to strike a balance between display quantity and quality: show too many articles and the place looks junked-up and down-market.
