THIS JUST IN: Next-door neighbours and occupants in the same building rule this edition of THE TIP OFF. This Week’s Top 5 Stories: A Yorkville restaurant is changing up more than the decor, a fine dining restaurant expands nearby, the closure of a buzzy destination, the arrival of a new venture from industry pros, and a downtown addition with roots in a city known for its waterfalls.

Listen to THE TIP OFF, a supplement to my OPEN/CLOSED, featuring breaking exclusives, sneak peeks, hot tips and the week’s top stories and events like you’ve never seen - or heard - before in 3 minutes or less.

TR Pro Tip: Like and subscribe to TORONTO RESTAURANTS | THE PODCAST and follow on Instagram because you’re not going to believe what’s coming next. p.s. While some items may appear in the OPEN/CLOSED, others will be reported here exclusively for the first time. p.p.s. You’d better get caught up: In just over two months, I’ve reported nearly 60 breaking and exclusive news items in THE TIP OFF alone. That’s in addition to an average of 15-30 establishments in my weekly OPEN/CLOSED.

NO ONE COVERS TORONTO/GTA LIKE THIS.
