This was my breakfast go to place all Caribana weekend. It seemed to be the only thing open between 4-6am when we would get back to our hotel from the club. And although the omelette may not be the best I'll ever experience in my lifetime, when…More »

I went to a bridal shower at the edge of the world (Midland and Steeles) and my friend told me this would be the easiest LCBO to get to before jumping back on to the highway. She was right. It took about 5 minutes for me to find what I was looking…More »

This place is tucked right at the bottom of the escalator from my work place to the underground. Seeing as how I'm lazy all the time, I was intrigued at going here due to its proximity. I then saw the line that snaked outside and around the corner…More »
Based on Lindsey S's review of the poutine, I went back to get an order. I was NOT disappointed! The poutine was so ooey gooey good. I was shovelling it into my mouth so quickly on the train up to Yorkdale that the couple across from me gave me a…More »

I love this location. It's not as busy as the Bloor one can be and even when they're rushed, they still take the time to give you a proper fitting. I go in here occasionally to see what new products they have and, whenever a friend of mine wants to…More »
I went here last month to celebrate my birthday and my friend's birthday. My friend had never had a massage before and was a little wary of it (oh men!). However I assured him that once he went Elmwood, he would never go back.
The massage was exactly…More »

I stayed here for New Year's eve and noticed they changed their room service options. They have about 6 late night items and 6 breakfast items. And instead of being served the meal hot and fresh, they send you a box of your food that you can…More »

After riding low from the disappointment of Original Motorcycle Burger, I decided to dine in at my next stop, Gourmet Burger Co. I sprint limped* from my work and steeled against the cold. I felt relieved when I walked up the tiny stairs to the…More »

A sneeze broke the sugar jar!
It all happened in slow motion. I had just finished using the sugar and was putting it back in its place. Then I sneezed...and somehow my hands lost their grip on the jar and it fell. I really thought it would just fall…More »
I love going to the salon to get my hair done. That's because of Azan's. I've experienced services that I didn't get at other black-owned salons I've been to, which may shock some.
1. My appointment starts on time. As soon as I enter and register, I'm…More »

I didn't realize this location was so close to my doctor's so after my check-up, I stopped in for a bite. I was surprised at the various topping choices. They have everything from spicy ketchup to garlic mayo to mango chutney. I took Natasha E's…More »

Despite this location being in the hussle and bustle of the PATH, I feel instantly calmer when I walk through the doors. They don't always have the best selection because it's a small location; but the staff makes up for it by assisting you in…More »
For some reason, when I have access to some wheels, my stomach ALWAYS craves fruit at around 3am. I have been known to frequent this Metro after a club, hanging out with a friend, or during a night of troubled sleep.
Always have a decent selection,…More »
There are 10 24HR Shoppers locations in the city. I'm lucky that I'm relatively close to one. I once walked home from this one and it was about 40 minutes. However, driving there takes less than 10 minutes.

I love this UPS location. I've sent several packages in the past 2 months & consider it the only place I'll go.
They're friendlier than any Canada Post location IMO. The lady that works here knows me. She knows that I'm usually sending back purchases…More »
D'ya ever notice how no matter what Apple Store you walk past, it's always packed? It's partly due to people gawking at the Macs or surfing the free internet. Or people actually buying a Mac (lucky, rich bastards!). But it's usually due to the fact…More »
Man, I feel like a Woman! (11)Every female should have a place (or two) that makes her feel good about herself, both inside and out. As Shakira would say, release your inner She-Wolf! These places not only make me feel good about myself but slightly empowered. Now, if only I could get that dang Shakira song out of my head! |

My Decemburger journey/Mon voyage de décemburgère (7)Can I handle 22 burger spots in one month? As Decemburger bears upon me, I set myself up to sample what may be the best (or worst) burgers of my life. |
