Headed up by mastermind Jen Agg and her chef de cuisine, Brandon Olsen, Toronto's The Black Hoof is known for its giant charcuterie boards, tuna with sweetbreads, horse tartare and foie gras with Nutella. In this episode, we invited Colin Tooke and Ian McGrenaghan who own Grand Electric, the bourbon-soaked, dimly lit taco joint. The whole crew ends up at Cold Tea, a fake speakeasy in Kensington Market, and enjoy a dangerous round of "Green Dragon" cocktails. As if all that wasn't enough, the night ends at The Black Hoof for some after-hours tongue nachos. Please enjoy.
