Butchers, artisan bakers, antique shops and coffee shops define this stretch of Ossington Avenue where the appealingly worn Union awaits. There is a horseshoe-shaped bar at the entrance, but head back to the rustic brick-faced dining room. If you're up for a bit of theater, nab a seat at the counter to catch the action.
Chef/owner Teo Paul once worked on a farm and his menu is a love letter to the region's seasons and its local suppliers. Lunch is perfect for a quick bite, while dinner is more of an event. Dishes are rustic with a refined edge and pack a flavorful punch.. The same effort and care goes into an omelette as steak frites, and if servers are busy, expect the chef himself to serve your plate, along with an explanation of what's on it.
