The fried tongue sandwich at People’s Eatery in Toronto is one of the city’s best, says Toronto Life magazine. It’s served simply, on a pretzel bun with French’s mustard.
The Chinatown restaurant’s Jewish-Chinese menu stretches from latkes and “deli whitefish salad” to Peking duck and spicy General Tso Fu tofu.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
