I hope people are continuing to support local eateries and caterers by ordering takeout or delivery from participating restaurants. More and more establishments are joining this group as a way to help stay afloat. You can find many of them on your food apps like Uber Eats, Door Dash, Foodora, Ritual, etc.
Check out my Instagram, @ShaneaSavours, where I will showcase and update other restaurants.
I hope you all stay safe and eat well.

Phipps bakery cafe on Eglinton Ave West near Avenue Road is available for takeout. Their baked goods are amazing and they have prepared meals that you can take out too. Great soups, etc…. if you like challah bread, you will have to either reserve one or get there early on Fridays as people literally fight over the last loaf.
