Black Skirt

I have come to Toronto to visit my new nephew! Today, my sister (the new mommy), and Everett, the new little man ventured outside for the first time since his January 19th birthday..it was a mild afternoon, so we all bundled up and walked down the street to College, met a lovely friend, and had lunch at a new place called Black Skirt.

This place got a thumbs up from me right away, they have prosecco by the glass on the menu! This is rare.....so we all had a glass and toasted the new family member! It went down awfully smooth...gotta love prosecco! Along with our bubbly, we had rice balls, mushroom crostini, arugula salad, tomato and fennel soup.....everything was fabulous! (Anabelle loved the rice balls!)

Like a little Sicilian deli, they carried all sorts of italian grocery items, fruit nectars, espresso....great dessert menu, including a warm nutella sandwich! A must try for next time.

A warm atmosphere; industrial lighting fixtures, wooden planked floors, old school chairs...would be a great place to go in the evening to have a glass of wine. I think my sister will be soon be known by name, as its right at the end of her block!

The coolest thing, were the wooden crates, stacked on their sides on top of one another in the bathroom, held together by wood clamps, housing the paper towels and extra toilet paper...a great design idea!

Another great place to go, while visiting T.O!
