| - The Sister, the new name for the former Tennessee Tavern, and most recently, Mitzi's Sister, is a fine improvement over the previous incarnations. The interior has been redesigned, but the kitchen is still quality controlled by "Mitizi".
The specials are not what they used to be, but I still find their food to be very good. In particular, I really like their Crispy Tofu which is only $7. This marinated, breaded, deep fried tofu comes with your choice of two sauces, and usually pick their "tangy suicide" and "spicy barbecue". They are delicious, and the suicide sauce has just enough zing and hotness to really give the tofu flavour without burning out your taste buds.
I come here on a weekly basis, and it is my main bar in Parkdale. I come here mainly for the beer. They have a great selection of micro brewed beers on tap. I find I usually go for the Durham Hop Addict IPA or Neustadt Springs 10W30 Ale. I love hoppy ales, and I like dark ales, so these two beers fit that nicely. If you are looking for a lighter lager, they of course carry Steamwhistle.
Not sure why all the negativity here in the reviews, but I really like this place, and it still has much of the old character of Mitizi's. Now that the warm weather is here, it also has a great backyard patio. I highly recommend this place if you find yourself in South Parkdale.
