You may have heard of Mile End but you may not have heard of Mile Ex, the area north of Mile End, bordering the Parc-Extension neighbourhood. It is also known as the old Marconi-Alexandra nabe and I’m warning you, not exactly easy to get to, with its zig-zag of start and stop streets. Within the mixed-used area, Mile-Ex is a beacon for stand-out restaurants like Manitoba. Named for the province known for its wild and game, you’ll have a taste of the forest on your plate. Now only open for dinner, you’ll find such things as maple brulé bone marrow, deer steak, and veal heart gravlax on the ever-changing menu. Arrange a cab back; you might be here for a while, as it’s one of those ever-lasting memories.
