For me to walk out of a place and rave about it, and immediately want to go back and have everything else on the menu is rare. But this place has definitely made the cut! Oh NomNomNom Gee!!!

I think this has to be the best crepe I've ever had. On par…More »

We came here this weekend to see My Fair Lady (which was an excellent musical and you'll love it if you are a fan of the movie. $30 for under 30).  The theatre itself was small, but also means that there is seating without obstruction for almost…More »

This hidden gem is one of the more picturesque stops in St. Catherine's on the way to Niagara Falls.  Perfect for an afternoon dip for families and a romantic spot for couples.

The mill here serves as a backdrop to the waterfalls, but it also houses…More »

I am so happy that I found this place!

After scouring the internet looking for a good, decent priced, with good atmosphere, that doesn't look ghetto from the outside, I found this one.  I'm not sure why all the restuarants north Lundys Lane and the…More »

The cheapest way to get to Niagara Falls!!

They will charge you $25 (for both ways), but if you sign up for a Players Advantage Card (PAC) (which is free, and you use it to get points when play). They will give you $20 back.
It becomes $5 per person…More »

I've seen two concerts here and I'm really disappointed in how the staff treats the audience.

I went to see The Band from TV a few months ago, and they were a fun group that wanted to get the audience up an dancing. The band told everyone "come on…More »

This small estate winery was an excellent pick by my fiance who took me on a surprise weekend trip.

The small boutique gets crowded after the bus load had emptied. Note: wait until they are done, and you'll get undivided attention.

The wines here are…More »

This is one of the fancier restaurants in the Fallsview Casino complex, but it wasn't spectacular, at least for the price.

We did come here compliments of my mom's Player's Advantage card, cashback and VIP credits, but I would never want to come here…More »
