This convention centre is far from downtown Toronto where majority of trade show goers are from. It's quite a hike.

I drive but I feel sorry for non-drivers.

There are now two buildings. The halls can accommodate a small office convention to LARGE…More »

Call me a hotel snob but Sheraton is a substandard for its category. Go on and raise your eyebrows. I'm telling the truth.

I was here for a couple nights to be with guests from the US. I thought, it was a great way to host a sleep over in less…More »

From mild to wild. HUGE selection of beer that will appear to different beer lover (or trying to love beer).

I went to check this place with a friend who could dry a bar. I am not a drinker and I am cheap date. But the server was able to find me a…More »

Maybe it's just me and I like almost every brunch place. Eggspectation has met my expectation. Not overly great, but a decent brunch place.

A huge selection of eggs (really?) menu. What to eat here? Typical brunch place - sausages, eggs, fruits etc.…More »

Frankie Tomatoe's

I've been here too many times  that I can walk with blindfold and still be able to spot where the beef ribs, calamari, lemon, gnocchi, roast beef, pizza and ceasar salads are. The menu has not changed in MANY years. This is a default…More »

Probably the best $ 10 I've spent.

I have oily skin. Which sucks. When I pose for the camera, it shines.

So I came to Sephora to find a solution. I was intimidated with the oversupply of powerful estrogen and womanhood in the room - zebra style…More »

I actually like it.

Have you tried their  tuna melt? You will forget your mother's (or girlfriend's) name. It's got the right level of saltiness, a bit of onion and greasy bread... it's heaven. I bet with one order, you consume half of your…More »

The word is orgasmic. If Tuna Melt at Fran's will make you forget your mother's name... Nadege will make you forget your name. I ordered cafe americano and Nadege's is one of the best. There's a bunch of mini dessert  you can choose from - everything…More »

I am lost with words for this place. This is a bar - not a grill place. I came here two and on both occasions, this failed to impress me. My first visit I had a pasta (fail) and the second time I had the steak sandwich (miserably fail).

The food is…More »

Where can I start? I'm literally laughing as I type this.

Ok... here...

This mall has three purposes - contraception and Walmart and H&M shopping. Other than those three ...there isn't a lot.

Why contraception?

This is family madness! Staring at…More »

Yelpers know that I love burgers. And Milestone has awesome four cheese burger. Not one, but four cheeses. While the circle fries look fancy, you can't afford not to substitute it with yam fries. It's just sooo delicious.

For $ 15, you'll get a…More »

I hate Terroni, it makes me eat. A LOT.

Everything here seems perfect - courteous servers (they're beautiful too by the way), the food, location and over all look of the place. This is a place to relax and hang out with with good friends.

The best time to come here is in the afternoon... NOT at night. From your table, you will see Toronto baked in yellow as the sun sets in the horizon. The view is beautiful. And because the restaurant is rotating, you'll get to see both west and east…More »

Before Starbucks started offering wi fi access to customers, Urbana Coffee was already doing it. This location at Bay and St. Joseph is a perfect coffee noise get away. It's far enough from the crowded coffee places on Yonge and Church and yet you're…More »

This theatre is a haven for actors, playwrights and directors who want to showcase and pitch their skills at a smaller audience. With a hope that it'll be picked up by bigger theatre companies. I've seen several shows here - some were good and some…More »

This is a good store to buy audio/video recording and photo equipment for starting artists and pro alike. The collection isn't as "pro" as Vistek but students and amateur practitioners will find everything they need in this place.

There are studio…More »

When I fell off the thread mill... stop laughing... I was referred to TWH's hand clinic. The clinic occupies one of the building's entire second floor with its own registration desk, a set of physiotherapists and doctors.

Meat galore! You will swim in raw meat ready to be cooked. This is an all you can eat place where they give you the meat and you do the cooking. Wear cheap jacket as you'll end up smelling like smoked prosciutto.

I will recommend this place to any…More »

There's something literally dark about this place... LITERALLY. I get it that it's trying to achieve a cozy atmosphere but I was seated by the corner fearing for my friend's life... checking fish bones in dim lighting. The place is small and intimate…More »
