A Review Of Porter House: Fine Fare And Ales

After I wrote my first Vegan Guide To Toronto here on HappyCow I received a lot of positive feedback, and also a few suggestions for other vegan restaurants I had not included on my list. A name that kept popping up was Porter House. A vegan pub, Porter House is a relatively new addition to the Toronto vegan scene.

Not only are more and more high-class restaurants (such as the “Hotel Valldemossa” or the two-star Michelin restaurant “Es Fum”) starting to offer extensive vegan menus, but the local government is also recognizing the rising number of vegans on the largest Balearic island. How do I know?
