\n Toronto\u2019s most exciting new restaurants have in common faraway cuisines getting local love.<\/p>\n

\n And that\u2019s fitting for a Toronto Film Festival relying this year on glitzy international cinema talent from Europe and Asia especially to replace striking Hollywood A-listers not expected on its red carpets.<\/p>\n

\n Here\u2019s a closer look at new hotspots in a city as diverse as its neighborhoods and where you\u2019re likely to get a table without reservations in the absence of American celebrities in town.<\/p>\n

\n Laylak<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n Laylak offers an escape to Lebanon with elevated traditional dishes from chef Hazem Al Hamwi. Besides classic mezze plates like hummus, baba ghanouj and tabbouleh, there are classic main dishes like Kibbeh Safarjaleah, meatballs prepared with quince, pearl onions and pomegranate ($44), or Branzino fish grilled with orfa chili, pine nuts and fennel ($62). Or go for the mixed grill for two ($77). \u201cOur goal is to transport our guests to Lebanon as they walk through the door,\u201d says Al Hamwi. 25 Toronto St., 647-368-8838 www.laylak.ca<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n Sunny\u2019s Chinese<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n \u201cSunnys is inspired by high-energy dining cultures found throughout China,\u201d says chef David Schwartz. \u201cWe look to regional traditions to create an experience that\u2019s casual and playful.\u201d The downtown cousin to chef Schwartz\u2019s more swanky Mimi\u2019s Chinese in Yorkville, the old school Hong Kong-like cafe offers Typhoon Shelter Squid, flavored with garlic, shallots and chili ($21), and King Stir Fry, with shrimp, cashews and chives ($24). 60 Kensington Ave. Enter through indoor hallway in Kensington Mall. 437-833-5798.\u00a0 www.sunnyschinese.com<\/em><\/p>\n

\n Alder<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n This new Mediterranean-inspired restaurant inside the Ace Hotel wins points for its wood-fired meat and seafood dishes from chef Patrick Kriss. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of creativity to be explored, even when you\u2019re cooking with something so elemental and primal as fire,\u201d Kriss explains. His favorites include Beef Carpaccio with grilled chive, aioli, pickled and mustard seed ($24), grilled chicken with harissa jus and sweety drop pepper ($36), and Baked Clams ($22) with croutons, brown butter, \u2019nduja and lemon. 51 Camden St., 416-637 3737. www.aldertoronto.com<\/em><\/p>\n

\n Adrak Yorkville<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe wanted to showcase a blend of traditions with modernity and innovation, in order to honor the past, while embracing the future,\u201d says chef Narendra Panwar <\/strong>of his menu\u2019s inspiration. \u201cThat is why our menus are a mix between historical India and modern-day cuisine.\u201d Big hits include Kashmiri slow-cooked lamb shank ($50) and Chilean seabass, cilantro, mint and coconut marinade ($47). The Yorkville location draws visiting stars like Jessica Alba and film director Shekhar Kapur. 138\u202fAvenue Road, 416-413 0777, www.adrakyorkville.ca<\/em><\/p>\n

\n Miss Likkemores<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n Chef Lonie Murdock taps into her Jamaican roots at the city\u2019s first high-end Caribbean-inspired restaurant.\u00a0 Favorites include Miss Edna\u2019s Jerk Chicken (half $35, whole $70), Likkle Patties, stuffed with slow-braised oxtail and spicy beef ($17), and Salt Cod Fritters ($16). \u201cI want you to feel the warmth of Miss Likklemore\u2019s. Everything from the smell of fresh carrot cake cooking to the music filling the room is part of what makes this restaurant so special,\u201d says Murdock. 433 King St. West, 647-484-8789, www.misslikklemores.com<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
