The Feed Vol. 03 – Where to order kangaroo, find unusual vodkas, quiet restaurants, and more

Discover this month’s unique food and drink news you probably won’t see elsewhere:

Island in a stream

There are probably plenty of types of fountains you’ve dreamed of over the years, but I bet this one never crossed your mind. 

From bovine to bevvie

Vodka, you’ve changed. From ebony-hued to milk-infused iterations, the sudden expansion of alternatives could soon eclipse the classic tater variety.

A quiet place

Had it with noisy restaurants? Want to catch up with someone over a drink/meal minus the shouting? You need the ANPL, otherwise known as  Anti-Noise Pollution League.

Passport to Argentina

Hot tip: Argentinean food is on the upswing here in Toronto. From top dinner spots VOS Restaurante Argentino and Tanto to last week’s arrival, Bacan - and more eateries to launch this year – the cuisine appears here to stay. Especially now that you can buy grass-fed Argentinean beef at Di Liso’s Fine Meats at St. Lawrence Market. Pairs well with Malbec, natch.

Game plan

Speaking of beef, tired of the usual proteins? Chicken again? No need to travel afar. Dig into game meats and other exotic fare right here in the 6ix, such as:
Roasted Buffalo at Nish Dish
Kangaroo and nine other varieties of game sausage at WVRST
• Braised Cow Tongue, Grilled Cow Heart, and Grilled Lamb Testicles at Banu
Pork Blood Pasta at Buca (King location)
Horse Tenderloin at Buca (King) and La Palette
• Frog Legs at Cluny Bistro & Boulangerie
Shark at Maracas.
