Historically Baldwin Village was host to the Underground Railroad, the Jewish Community as well as a very colourful hippie scene. As we explore the past we hope to come across anecdotes and traditions that will help us build on this theme.
Baldwin Village is a hidden treasure nestled in the heart of downtown — a history-rich urban village that represents the culturally diverse heartbeat of Toronto. Composed of a collection of 38 independent restaurants and retailers, this community is amplified by an abundance of international cuisine. Imagine a mix of Chinatown, Little India, Korea town and Little Italy all-in-one, and then throw in Thai, French, Vegetarian, Japanese, Mediterranean, Malaysian, Vietnamese and other cuisines.
The merchants and residents of Baldwin Village invite visitors to join them this summer as they introduce Toronto’s best-kept secret to the city through a series of Pedestrian Sunday celebrations.

My husband and my favourite place in the entire city..may it live on for a very very long time.
Cafe La Gaffe is a romnatic gem of a place, in a casual, bistro king of way.
