Interesting little bar on Dundas west of Ossington. We were there on the night of Nuite Blanche and it was fairly quiet. The place is intimate, it has beer, and the bartender was nice.

As a weekend duffer, as long as the conditions aren't horrible, or the course is not so poorly designed (i.e. having balls land near you at the tee box) I'm okay with it. Be FORE warned, it's an addictive sport. |
Chinese BBQ (6)Places to get your roasted pork, chicken, duck, some char-sui marinated pork, and if you're lucky a bunch of other items like bung (?!?!) fried smelt/ talapia or tofu.I seriously couldn't go more than a month without some Chinese BBQ. It practically cost me a relationship when someone wanted to turn vegan after seeing a whole roasted pig hung up. You know who I chose to stick by.. yes the piggy. |
