TORONTO— Ah, the gluten-free diet. Sure it works, but what about the lack of beer!?!? Luckily breweries have come a long way in concocting gluten-free "beer" (a.k.a. alcoholic beverages to the purists). This great list showcases the best bars in the city to get your glutes on (or off, as it were). Check out Beerbistro, Get Well, The Rhino and The Press Club. [BlogTO]
TORONTO— Wondering which food trucks stay open now that the cold weather's struck? Wonder no more! Gourmet Gringos and Luchador Gourmet Streatery will be out there, frostbite and all, year-round. Gourmet Bitches and Hogtown Smoke will not. (Luckily HS has just opened a bricks-and-mortar in the Beach. Oh and did you know the Beach is now called the Beach Village? Yup.) [Toronto Food Trucks]
