Our Weekend In Toronto: Family, Fun, & Fried Chicken!

As a celiac, I am always looking for new options to try when dining out.  This past weekend, we met with family in Toronto and experienced some fantastic celiac-friendly food and beverages at Her Father's Cider Bar + Kitchen.

Being a celiac means I cannot eat gluten (found in Wheat, Barley, Rye, and certain other grains).  Usually, when dining out, I cannot eat breaded or fried foods, such as fried chicken or french fries, especially if there is not a dedicated fryer in the establishment.  Most food options are usually baked or raw (such as salads).

Her Father's is a celiac-friendly restaurant in the city that offers incredible small plate style dining, a large selection of world wide craft-ciders, and other delicious bar drinks. Small plates are great when dining with a crowd so you can try multiple flavours of food in one sitting.

When visiting this weekend, our table of 8 got to enjoy Buttermilk Brined Fried Chicken (definitely a new favourite), Crispy Fried Brussel Sprouts, Halloumi Sakagaki, and Russet French Fries, along with other items such as Maitake Mushrooms and the Gem Lettuce Salad featuring crispy chickpeas, orange segments, dried cranberries and pickled walnuts.

If you are in Toronto in the near future and looking for a great night out, be sure to check out Her Father's Cider Bar + Kitchen.
