Food scene

Grey Gardens lives up to its bohemian-luxe address in Kensington Market; it's just vintage enough without feeling dowdy. Menu standouts here include sweet shrimp with compressed watermelon radishes and a dry-aged Peking-style duck breast, served on homemade sauerkraut and duck fried rice. Pop in for a glass of rare Sauternes and a snack after work (no reservations required), or come with a friend to linger over dinner in the back dining room (reservations only).

Sotto Sotto's Italian cooking is flavorful and filling, but it may not impress food-lovers accustomed to more inventive menus—in some ways being at this restaurant is more important than eating at this restaurant. That said, the seafood risotto (which takes about 40 minutes to prepare) is incredible.
