Mount Pleasant Village, a vibrant shopping district on Mt. Pleasant Rd. between Eglinton and Davisville, is home to a variety of unique restaurants and cafes that include some of Toronto’s finest eateries attracting regulars and tourists alike.

Head down on Tuesday, June 26, from noon to 9 p.m. for Restaurantacular, a celebration of food where visitors can sample delicious treats priced at $2, $4, or $6 at participating venues.

The Epoch Times visited three French-influenced bistros and spoke with the chefs.

Mogette Bistro

Daniel Muia is co-owner and chef of Mogette Bistro, a cozy upscale restaurant that lists among Joanne Kates’ top 100 restaurants in Toronto.

Starting out as a waiter, then a sous-chef at multiple fine restaurants in Toronto and Vancouver, Italian-Canadian Muia always stayed true to his interest in classical French cuisine.

“French food spoke to the quantitative nature of my personality, because I don’t like things that are abstract. I like things that are concrete a lot of the time,” Muia says.
