I know that taste is a personal thing, but this place ihas got to carry some of the tackiest stuff around. I had to come here to pick up a money holder for my brother's wedding, and I was shocked at the ornate (read: gaudy) things available here.…More »

Category:
Couriers & Delivery Services
Neighbourhood: Etobicoke
I really hate Purolator. I hate how "for security reasons" they don't leave a sticker at your apartment to let you know they have been there. How else will I know if my freaking package came or not?!
I hate how I have to wait at home, from 8 am…More »
22. Famous Players Chatham Cinema 6
I guess I can't really complain, because unlike most small towns this one actually has a movie theater. They get all the blockbusters you'd expect, and once in awhile a local arts group will bring in a festival-type flick on a Monday night. The…More »
23. Eve Chocolatier
This is an absolutely gorgeous store in downtown Chatham. They have the most beautiful display windows all year round. The chocolate is delicious, handmade, and has some really innovative flavours. It IS a bit pricey, no doubt about it, but it…More »
24. Szechuan Express
First, let me say I am VERY picky about my Chinese food (and by Chinese, I mean, the Americanized version of Chinese food).
The great thing about Szechuan Express, is that they are related to the delicious but horribly busy Szechuan Szechuan in…More »
25. Parchment Paper
I believe that many people may not know the true benefit of parchment paper when baking. I love parchment paper. And as my Xbox name attests, I am a damn good cookiem8ker. The use of parchment paper has pretty much changed my life.
Like you, I…More »

Came to The Counter tonight to check out the latest edition to my building and the King West area. It has only been open for a day, so I was hoping they had brought their A game.

Category:
Fast Food
Neighbourhoods: Alexandra Park, Queen Street West
I've given this place two tries, and I think what makes me not like it is the overpowering rosemary-ish flavour of the gravy. I just don't like it. I'm sorry, but I don't. The last time it was also a bit congealed, which is not very appealing.…More »
31. Bruce Pit
Bruce Pit is one of the best things Ottawa has to offer for our canine companions.
The pit offers acres of fenced in, off leash party time for your pooch. There are many wooded trails, sand patches, and open fields which makes your dog feel like…More »
32. Seafood Delight Chinese Restaurant
I came here this weekend for a wedding banquet. I must confess that even having lived in Asia and done a fair bit of travelling around, this was by FAR the most authentic Chinese cuisine I've ever had.
The decor was rather sketchy from the outside,…More »

Category:
Meat Shops
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
This is the newest addition to the poutine scene in Toronto. Located only steps away from Smoke's, this place is definitely the better. Yes, the decor is kinda bizarre, and except for a small bar, there is nowhere to eat. They also have a…More »
34. Rus-Teak
I had an excellent experience here. If you are on the lookout for home furnishings that are one-of-a-kind, well made, and not too expensive, this is the place to go! I was on the hunt for an entertainment unit that wasn't too low, not too wide,…More »
35. St. Andrew's Playground
This is the smallest dog park downtown. It is a recent development to provide local residents with a fully enclosed off-leash area, so I guess its an improvement of sorts. Its extremely sandy, which leaves a heck of a mess all over you and your…More »
36. Domino's Pizza
I am so happy this location is super close. I'm also happy I can order online, and I can use any number of online coupons to get my pizza cheap cheap (under $10 for large with pep). The pizza itself tastes like every other Domino's outlet, which is…More »

38. All Risks Insurance Brokers Limited
I have been working with Don for my personal and business insurance needs for over a year now. He is very quick to respond to any questions, revise any documents and process payments. Very professional, and great rates.

This is my go-to place for getting flowers in the Chatham-Kent area. I find their prices are incredibly reasonable (especially compared to a larger city), and they supply the freshest and most innovative designs in town. They are up on the current…More »
