Is Halifax, Nova Scotia Worth Visiting?
Great Toronto guide and I’m a long time vegan and Torontonian! A couple of updates: sadly LOV’s Toronto location has permanently closed and Sweet Hart Kitchen is closing in February.
I am so glad you liked the guide; that makes my day! I am SO sad to hear about LOV; I really loved that place ): Breaks my heart to pull them and Sweet Hart out.
Sadly, it looks like The Wandering Deli has also permanently closed.
I see that now on their Google card ): They didn’t put it on their website so I thought there was a chance they were still open!
