Little Persia and Koreatown North (8.5 km)
Details
Yonge Street between Clark and Sheppard Avenue is a great example of the diversity of Canada. Nowhere else in the world can one find Iranian and Korean businesses side-by-side for 4km. Near the southern end, Chinese restaurants enter the fray. There are just too many food places in this neighbourhood, so we'll just visit some highlights.
