I love to walk down Roncesvalles Ave on a sunny day. Roncesvalles is an old Polish neighbourhood but it's been quite gentrified in the last decade or so - now you'll find lots of coffee shops, eco stores and fruit markets on this street. My fave Polish restaurant is still there - Cafe Polonez serves up some delicious Polish food like pierogi and cabbage rolls if you're into that.
