Good afternoon, and happy Friday Jr. If you’re a cyclist, any plans of morning bike rides have been replaced with hopping onto Zwift a little earlier than anticipated. But hey, c'est la vie. If you are a cyclist and are in Toronto this weekend, I’d highly encourage you to check out Cycle 4 St. Joes. You’ll find our team, and more than 300 riders supporting the most urgent needs at St. Joe’s.
Alright, let’s get into it.
Today’s read time is 5 minutes.

Lobster & Ontario Sweet Corn Bisque – Rich, creamy, and bursting with flavour, this starter is comfort food with a touch of luxury.
Char Siu Diver Scallops – A showstopper! Perfectly seared scallops paired with bold Asian-inspired flavours — a must-try for seafood lovers.
