Located at 8051 Yonge St in Thornhill/Markham

Ruelo Bakehouse located at 463 McNicoll Ave. in North York.

Flashfood is the best grocery shopping app to save on buying food and non-food items that are nearing their “best before” dates (a fabricated date that doesn’t always have to do with whether the food is fresh or safe to eat; it’s better to use your eyes and nose to see if something has gone bad).
