1. Costco
Etobicoke, ON M8X 1G2
Canada
(416) 251-2832
Category:
Wholesale Stores
Neighbourhood: Etobicoke
My trips anywhere wouldn't be complete without a trip to Costco! Damn I love costco, wholesale prices for bulk items! I'm so jealous of this location! This location has fries and poutine! Ours in L.A. doesn't have any fries. That's a just the…More »
2. Niagara Falls
I've been here a few times now and it's another spot I appreciate more and more. Although I've been here a few times, it has always been in the summer. This is my first time ever during the winter season. It's a totally different experience. Summer…More »
3. Smoke's Poutinerie
Toronto, ON M5H 1W7
Canada
(416) 599-2873
Categories:
Fast Food,
Poutineries
Neighbourhoods: Entertainment District, Downtown Core
The best poutine spot I've had thus far. Thanks to the Toronto Transit Commission the subway rides were fun and efficient. I really love poutine, it's simple, playful and it tastes great. It's a canadian staple and if you google it, apparently…More »
4. Dragon Dynasty Chinese Cuisine
Scarborough, ON M1S 5B8
Canada
(416) 321-9000
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
One of the cleanest chinese restaurants I've ever experienced. It was also perhaps the busiest restaurant I've seen. We were a party of 13, they were able to sit us all together. We're usually a party of 25 when everyone is present. The food was…More »
5. Congee Wong
I've yet to see a place such as this in L.A. A place that specializes in congee. Congee Wong is awesome, especially during this time of year! They offer so many varieties of Congee!
Although they specialize in Congee, they still have other classic…More »
6. Nando's Flame Grilled Chicken
I'm surprised by the reviews of this place! I've never had this kind of food and this was a great way to break in the tastebuds. We don't have this in L.A. If we do, someone tell where. L.A. has chicken places that specialize in chicken too but…More »
7. CN Tower
Toronto, ON M5V 2T6
Canada
(416) 868-6937
Category:
Landmarks & Historical Buildings
Neighbourhood: Entertainment District
A tourist spot! I've been here about three times. I appreciate it more and more every time I visit. I guess I'm getting old, when I was a kid I didn't care about it so much. The best part to me is the glass floor. About 140 stories up, you can sit,…More »
8. Fallsview Casino Resort
One of the best places to stay while visiting Niagara Falls! Their suites have some the best views. Hence the name, Fallsview Casino! It's no joke, it's a gorgeous look. The family an I usually stay overnight. You can't ask for much more. The casino…More »
9. Vaughan Mills Shopping Centre
A really nice shopping center! Great stores range from H&M, Nike, Reebok, Footlocker, Tommy Hilfiger etc and they carry Canada's national clothing store ROOTS! It's a generous size outlet and a lot of great stores. Things here in Canada are more…More »
10. Forestview Chinese Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 1G9
Canada
(416) 597-0319
Categories:
Ethnic Food,
Dim Sum
Neighbourhoods: Chinatown, Downtown Core
Pretty good spot! Dim Sum served all day, Har Gow (shrimp dumplings) always been my favorite growing up as a kid. Shrimp rice noodles here are awesome too but needs more sauce! The fried shrimp dumplings were definitely a highlight for this meal!…More »
11. Kfc Vaughan Mills
Concord, ON L4K 5W4
Canada
(905) 669-1286
Had to get my Poutine fix, We don't have this kind of stuff in L.A.! You can get it pretty much anywhere in Canada! Even KFC/PFK! My only thing is that it's so expensive! Anywhere you go for Poutine, expect to pay a nice lump sum. It's really good…More »
12. Chako Barbecue Izakaya
Scarborough, ON M1V 0D3
Canada
(416) 298-9978
Category:
Korean
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
I came here with my cousins for dinner and we tore it up. All you can eat barbecue. I'm hearing it's Korean, then I hear it's Japanese. My guess is that it's Japanese because it says Izakaya. People get mixed up because Korea and Japan share a lot of…More »
13. Opa Souvlaki Taste of Greece
Concord, ON L4K 5W4
Canada
(905) 761-6044
The Canadian equivalent of Daphne's Greek in LA.Not a bad place but definitely corporate owned. Quantity over quality here. I ordered the OPA platter with greek salad and gyro. The gyro was a combo of beef and lamb together! Their tzatziki sauce was…More »
14. Tako Sushi Japanese Restaurant
This spot is definitely A-OK. It's a japanese restaurant with a chinese restaurant feel. The entrance is a fusion influence in itself. On my left, was the sushi bar but no seats and to the right a tank full of lobsters! It was weird seeing it and I…More »
15. Pizza Pizza
Pizza and wings are okay. Pizza here, reminds me of my school lunches in the cafeteria, throughout my Elementary and Junior High schools. It was recommended by my cousin, she was craving pizza. She told me that this was the number one spot Canadians…More »
16. Keg Steakhouse & Bar
Honestly a two star spot but the view of Niagara Falls (included in the bill) is what bumped it up to a third star. I have experienced better but I've experienced worse too as far as the food is concerned. I ordered the Chicken Oscar, similar to your…More »
17. Jesse Jr Restaurant
Scarborough, ON M1S 1V1
Canada
(647) 430-8149
Category:
Filipino
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
I've definitely experienced better and really no frills about it. It's very similar to most of the filipino restaurants within the states. You pick and choose your entrees and you get rice. They had at least 20 different items and all I wanted was…More »
