#FOOD: THANKSGIVING AT DON ALFONSO 1890 AND DANICO

The best Thanksgiving tradition might be skipping cooking altogether. This year, trade the turkey timer and mountain of dishes for a table worth dressing up for. From dinner 38 storeys above Toronto to an intimate evening tucked inside a Little Italy landmark, Don Alfonso 1890 and DaNico give Torontonians two great reasons to reserve a table at one of these Michelin-starred destinations.

At Don Alfonso 1890, come for the view and stay for what arrives at the table. Set above the Westin Harbour Castle, the restaurant pairs sweeping views of Toronto and Lake Ontario with the southern Italian cuisine of executive chef Davide Ciavattella. As the skyline lights up, Thanksgiving dinner feels a long way from the usual turkey and mashed potatoes.

At DaNico, inside a restored heritage building in Little Italy, the restaurant pairs old-world character with chef Daniele Corona’s contemporary take on Italian cuisine. Drawing from his Italian roots and incorporating Asian influences and techniques, Corona delivers an experience to remember over the classic Thanksgiving spread.
