1. Harbord House
Went here for lunch and had the fisherman's pie. My coworkers all had burgers and fries (some regular potato, some sweet). Apparently the sweet potatoes are a bit more expensive than the regular ones. The food was really tasty and arrived quickly.…More »

Gorgeous hotel accomodations in the middle of downtown. The King subway stop is directly outside the front doors, making it really easy to get where you're going even if the weather is lousy. There's a very cool former bank vault decor thing going…More »

Categories:
Delis,
Sandwiches,
Caterers
Neighbourhood: Kensington Market
As an East Coast transplant to SF, I get homesick for proper deli. Fatty cuts of meat piled high on rye bread? It's just not something we do on the Left Coast. It's not even raw or vegan and where oh where would you put the avocado?
So imagine my…More »
5. Toronto Eaton Centre
Toronto, ON M5B 2H1
Canada

Category:
Shopping Centres
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
This is a HUGE mall near downtown Toronto. I went here about 3 hours before I had to catch a flight home. I found so much good stuff that I had to expand my carry on luggage and check it just to get it all back to the states. It's best to go when…More »

Canadian (New),
Bars
Neighbourhoods: St. Lawrence, Downtown Core
Questionable, possibly nationalistic waitstaff. Waitress was amazingly friendly to my Canadian friends/colleagues (granted, they go there all the time). I asked for a napkin and she seemed entirely displeased that I had requested one. It was like…More »

Indian
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Queen Street West, Downtown Core
Tasty, inexpensive indian food on Queen.
Was positively famished so we ordered: chicken korma, lamb tikka, rice, butter naan and kashmiri naan - and a glass of house white to wash it down. Had a fair amount leftover to take home and dinner was about…More »

Cuban Food (8)If it's good enough for Fidel, it's good enough for me! Chronicling my never-ending quest for decent Cuban food in the Bay Area and beyond! |
Hangin in Stumptown (16)Portland is a great city but expect a chilly reception if you're visiting from California |
NoPa H8r (18)Spent many years around the panhandle when NoPa was what was written under the "Respect the Neighborhood" signs and not a fancy shmancy restaurant. |
The D (4)Going to Detroit? |
Frisco Safeways (6)Before there was Whole Foods, before there was Trader Joe's, before there were gourmet corner markets on every street in SF, there was Safeway: the original supermarket. Like aging hookers, you can see the remnants of their prime, but whether or not you want to spend money on them is an entirely different question. |
Music Venues in and around The City (10)When the lights go down in the cityAnd the sun shines on the bay I want to be there in my city Ohh, ohhh |
