The True Story of One of the World's Most Diverse Cities

This week on Unpacked, we travel north to Toronto, Ontario, one of the world’s most diverse cities to explore what’s made it that way—and how we as travelers can best engage with it. That includes eating a peameal bacon sandwich (and learning what that is) at the St. Lawrence Market, visiting the city's most unusual museum, exploring its diverse parks and gorgeous waterfront, and eating (and eating and eating). Meet this week’s guests Bruce Bell, St. Lawrence Market historian and tour guide Matthew Jordan, founder of Hidden Rivers walking tours Elizabeth Semmelhack, curator at the Bata Shoe Museum Karen Carter, cofounder of BAND Chef Nuit Regular, founder and co-owner of 11 Thai restaurants  Jusep Sim, chief epicurean officer of Chopsticks and Forks  Resources Read this week’s show notes, including a full transcript of the episode.
