Petit Potato
1-10 Ravel Rd, North York, ON M2H 1S8North York’s Petit Potato has lunch and main menus filled with Taiwanese dishes like deep fried tofu with satay sauce and pork cutlet omurice with spicy curry sauce, but it’s the Golden Toast series that has been making waves in Toronto. The Golden Toast Series compromises of sweet toast piled high, and smothered in toppings like ice cream, marshmallows and strawberries. Some of them, standing at 10 inches high, are meant for sharing!
La Carnita
501 College St, Toronto, ON M6G 1A5La Carnita has been paying close attention to its dessert menu for the past couple of years. The taqueria launched the Sweet Jesus ice cream chain via its dessert menu, offering crazy over-the-top soft serve cones that set off an ever-growing trend in Toronto. These days you can find everything from Sweet Jesus cones to paletas and a fantastic tres leches cake.
Richmond Station
1 Richmond St W, Toronto, ON M5H 3W4Richmond Station prides itself on using seasonal ingredients and the dessert menu is no exception.

A favourite is the PB & J dish, a peanut butter mousse, with brioche, grape gel, and a mulled wine sorbet.
Café Boulud

Momofuku Noodle Bar

The Black Hoof
928 Dundas St W, Toronto, ON M6J 1W3Jen Agg’s The Black Hoof is known for its unique offerings of charcuterie, but the dessert menu is worth saving room for.

Scaramouche Restaurant Pasta Bar & Grill
1 Benvenuto Pl, Toronto, ON M4V 2L1The stand out on Scaramouche’s dessert menu is the famous Coconut Cream Pie.

If coconut isn’t you’re thing, there are lots of other options, like the Valrhona Chocolate Tart and the daily selection of house made ice creams.
