Behind Humber Bay: cheese and other rich foods (9.6 km)

Attendance policy is enforced for this hike. See below for details.

Go on the path less-travelled around Humber Bay. Most people whiz through Humber Bay on the Waterfront Trail or the Gardiner Expressway. We'll skirt around the bay and find the food establishments hiding in quiet neighbourhoods and industrial areas. Spoiler: a renowned cheese market, soft serve, creamy pastries, schnitzels, pizzas, and other artery-clogging foods.

We'll end the hike at Mimico, a semi-historical neighbourhood. Sit down for Ukrainian cuisine at the top restaurant of its kind in Toronto.

How it works
Hike starts punctually. Late or can't do the whole route? Meet us at scheduled checkpoints.

We'll browse many food places but won't linger long. Grab ready-made food, or see the route in advance, organize takeout, then pickup along the way.

Not sure what to try? Join our omakase for $5, which gives a tiny sample from different restaurants. Payment on the day of event by cash or e-transfer to globaltorontoeats@gmail.com. No refunds after orders are placed. Details of sampled food will be uploaded after the hike.

Limited cutlery provided. Highly recommended to bring cutlery and containers for omakase and bringing back leftovers.

See our About section for more info.

Attendance policy
24 hours before the hike, we'll check who is on the confirmed list. Those that don't show up will be flagged. Repeat offenders may be banned.

If you made it off the waitlist less than 24 hours before the event, you won't be considered a no-show.

Please change your RSVP if you're not able to attend. Changing RSVP at the last minute does not give others enough time to react.
