Wow. A gem on a somewhat bummy stretch of Danforth Ave.
I would give it a 4.5 if I could (only because I dont think any place is perfect so cant do 5/5 out of principal).
I hail from Downtown Toronto so take food seriously.
This place has the 2nd best REAL brownie I have ever had to eat in Toronto. Honest. It is not overly sweet, and actually tastes chocolaty and is coated outside with cocoa powder which is a great touch.
Most cafes ship in their baked goods from wholesalers or catering departments of known bakeries.
Zav made this from scratch, and I can tell because I tour Toronto cafes and bakeries and ALWAYS try their brownies. I literally have travelled all over the Metro Toronto area to try brownies.
Never had one like this.
This brownie is as good as the best brownie overall in town: Delight Choclate's.
Great setting and clean place too. Not expensive too!
