Bathurst Street is Toronto's kosher artery: in North York, in the north of the city, restaurants, bakeries and kosher shops cluster along it, with a few more good places in Forest Hill and around Avenue Road. Here are four of the 17 kosher places we list. Most are supervised by COR, the Kashruth Council of Canada. Before you go: opening hours vary, so check ahead and book a table on holiday evenings.
