A tourist guide to the T-dot
See All Lists
1. Art Gallery of Ontario
I point out the window and say, guess who designed that. 8 out of 10 people who are hip with architcects-as-celebrity know immediately that this is a Gehry design. See the reflective blue siding all over the back half, see the swirly staircase…More »
2. Grreat Stuff
Toronto, ON M6J 1G3
(416) 536-6770
Category:
Men's Clothing
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
Grreat Stuff is full of great finds. They carry an eclectic assortment of funky patterned button-downs, sweaters, jeans and mish-mash of stuff on the main floor. The upstairs selection of pants, suits and dress shirts is top notch. Take your…More »
3. Clafouti Patisserie & Café
Toronto, ON M6J 1G5
(416) 603-1935
Although the croissant are some of the best in the city, I hardly think it's worth the trip to this cafe to see a wall of empty wooden boxes. Sure, they'll have some clafouti left- the indulgent pie-like eggy treats. But, we come here for the bread…More »
4. BQM
Toronto, ON M6J 2Z9
(416) 850-1919
Category:
Burgers
Neighbourhoods: Little Portugal, Ossington Strip, Beaconsfield Village
This place is supposedly the best for the burgers. But, in reality, the poutine is my favorite in the city. The poutine gravy is (ahem, not vegetarian) but has little bits of Portobello mushrooms. The new waiter told us the ingredients, but all I…More »
5. Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival
Toronto, ON M5V 2K4
(416) 203-2155
Finally a film festival for Toronto residents! The TIFF keeps you waiting in line long enough to make your own movie, and then you can't even get into movies you picked. Hot Docs does just the opposite. You can buy a package online. Call the office…More »
6. Queen Mother Cafe
Toronto, ON M5V 1Z2
(416) 598-4719
Categories:
Asian Fusion,
Thai
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Queen Street West, Downtown Core
The sticky rice and peanut sauce are even better here than in Thailand.
They serve a diverse world of food- the Italian dish is on the menu just for the non-adventurous out there. The chef is thai, so he makes the real stuff. Although I don't eat it,…More »
7. Dark Horse Espresso
Toronto, ON M5T 2C7
(416) 979-1200
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Chinatown, Downtown Core
I can't imagine a better coffee shop! Dark Horse on Queen East caught my eye months ago and I had stopped in to check out the scene, taste an organic pastry and taste the coffee. It's a nice shop, but the Spadina location is even better. Lucky folks…More »
8. Barchef
Toronto, ON M5V 2B2
(416) 868-4800
Categories:
Lounges,
Canadian (Traditional)
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Queen Street West
Molecular gastronomy is making it big in NYC and was even featured on Top Chef. Drinks using gels and foams and "airs" are all found at Bar Chef. This place is crazy! Drink prices start high for some of the cooler items on the menu. I am told they…More »
9. Gladstone Hotel
Toronto, ON M6J 1J6
(416) 531-4635
See the movie, "Last Call at the Gladstone" for the history of this hotel. Artists and open-minded folks renovated. Though sad to see the way people lived in here before the reno's, it has become a centre of interesting culture. The rooms are…More »
10. Drake Hotel
Toronto, ON M6J 1J3
(416) 531-5042
The Drake Hotel started it all making West Queen West near Parkdale THE cool area to be. The renovation of this old Hotel is amazing. The rooftop patio is cool with good weather. More heaters are needed often. The brunch is delicious. Inside, the…More »
11. The Second City Mainstage Theatre
Toronto, ON M5V 9G9
(416) 343-0011
Category:
Comedy Clubs
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
The shows stay up to date by changing often. However, this can also lead to a lot of new, less finessed material being shown. In the two times I have been, one was constant clapping and cheering funny, the other was the occasional chuckle kind of…More »
