Places We Love: Barque Smokehouse

It's no secret that the ladies of On Crawford St. love brunch. Naturally, we spend most of our Saturday and Sunday mornings roaming the streets of Toronto looking for the best places to brunch. On Sunday, J and I headed to Barque Smokehouse on Roncesvalles. Having been there for dinner, we'd been eager to try their brunch menu for some time. 

Food and Drink: Grilled Fish Tacos

As anyone who frequents Toronto restaurants can tell you, tacos are the “it” thing, and have been for a while. I've been to restaurants that make their tacos in more traditional ways, and to others that fill them with braised wild boar or pineapple salsa. Personally, my favourite are fish tacos. And while I love the deep fried goodness of a Baja style fish taco, I prefer a grilled fish taco. My version is marinated in a Tex-Mex spice blend, and topped with homemade salsa and guacamole. I generally use halibut for this recipe, but you could really use any fish you like. Enjoy!
