Defining the national cuisine of Canada can be challenging. The country has a long history of welcoming immigrants from all over the world, who have brought their cultural and culinary traditions. Interestingly, this diversity of tastes, cuisines, and preferences is often considered the defining characteristic of Canadian cuisine.
Traditional dishes in Toronto often feature minimally processed meat, including kebabs, steak, barbecue, and a variety of meats cooked in both small and large pieces. Additionally, for those who appreciate delicacies, Toronto's chefs offer surprises like boujenina and pâtés.
A hallmark not just of Toronto but of all Canada is maple syrup, which is made by extracting sap from sugar maple trees in the spring and then condensing it.
