Toronto's essentials lean bakery and Japanese before anything else, with Vegan Danish Bakery on Queen and bloomer's Queen running the pastry lane while Tenon Vegan Sushi and Tsuchi Cafe handle the Japanese side. Donuts and dosa each hit 5 venues, but the actual depth lives in the 10-deep American and Indian rosters, with Soy Boys topping burgers and Honey's Ice Cream the dessert pick.
