While wandering the streets during Toronto's 4th all night contemporary art thing, you're bound to get hungry. So I decided to create a "survivor guide" breaking down where and when you can get your eat and drink on during this year's Nuit Blanche.

Of course, there will be Toronto's normal proliferation of hot dog vendors scattered throughout the city. And you better believe most of them will be keeping extended hours, especially in high traffic zones. But if you're feeling a little more adventurous, I have broken down eats and drinks by zone with my picks of the restaurants, bars and cafes worth spending money at.
