Since Canada is a multicultural nation, there are many opportunities for tourists and locals to treasure international dining. Major cities like Ottawa, Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga and Vaughan have more dining options since there are more immigrants residing there and things to do for people to enjoy, compared to the smaller towns such as Sutton, Collingwood and Pefferlaw where there are less visible minorities residing there and not as many opportunities for tourists to enjoy extravagant international dining experiences. International restaurants and take-out joints that serve Japanese, Chinese, Eastern European, Filipino, Thai and Mexican are situated all over the GTA, however most of them depend on the area where the locals are residing and operating their businesses. For example, there are a heap of Vietnamese, Japanese, Mexican, Korean and Thai restaurants in the Yonge and Sheppard neighbourhood of Toronto because the majority of the residents are of Asian and Hispanic descent. Whether you are wondering around the Sheppard Centre or outside in the neighbouhrood, you won't have an issue finding places to enjoy international cuisine.
