Places I would send R**** from high school

See All Lists
R**** was my sworn enemy from grades 11 to OAC. I would send her to these places because they suck and because I went to an all-girls school so I totally know about revenge and stuff.

My friend said it would be convenient that this particular Wal-Mart was in the mall (Scarborough Town) and we wouldn't have to be outside in the cold.

This store was depressing. The shelves looked like they didn't bother to stock them or place…More »

Let me get this straight, Kelsey. I give your restaurant $20 and you give me a meal that I could've made if I just walked across the parking lot and bought all ingredients in Price Choppers? Wish you had told me that BEFORE I gave you my money.

Yelp ratings system gives the suggestion for 1 star as "Eek! Me thinks not." Darn tootin right I think not with Lick's!

My friend and I sat down at OMB yesterday to enjoy the gorgeous weather and delicious burger. When we got there, we ordered and found a table outside. We sat and chit chatted and in too shakes of a cow's tail, we had our food. I opened the container…More »

What I thought would be the first official stop on the list where we could sit for our French Fry crawl turned into the "Is this really happening?!" stop of the night.

As we approached the restaurant, we noticed the whole left side of it had empty…More »

I used to be a loyal New Tribe customer and believed I would get all my tattoo and piercing needs done there. However, one experience changed all of that.

I was last tattooed at New Tribe in June 2009. As I was being tattooed, I saw a design on the…More »

I'm usually a polite person until someone pushes a button. Then Ghetto Nikki emerges. She is rude, uncompromising and ready to smash someone's face in, regardless of how small the issue may seem. At Telus yesterday, they leaned on that button until I…More »

Before I left for my trip, I figured I would use my gift certificate and get a massage at Healthwinds. I got to the spa, and loved the atmosphere. Extremely clean and white with inspirational words written on the walls.

As soon as I checked into the hotel, we went to the hotel restaurant for an early supper and drink. I realized being in a hotel restaurant, everything would be heavily overpriced; but I at least hoped the food would  be worth it. It was not.

Maybe I'm a jaded Torontonian. I expect when I go to a restaurant for the staff to be friendly, the service spot on and the food to be delicious...and served hot. I guess some of those expectations get lost in translation over at Big Pink.

When I first arrived, I couldn't find the WestJet counter. I stopped an airport worker and asked her if she knew where I could find their counter.

I passed by here to exchange an item I had purchased from the Collins store for another colour. I agree with Michelle C. The salespeople were more standing around talking than helping customers. From the time I entered, no one greeted me or asked me…More »

Hmm, where do I begin. My friends and I had been exercising around Harbourfront and had a craving for bar food. Reasons Casey's sucked that day:

Recently updated lists from Nicole B.

Man, I feel like a Woman! (11)

Every female should have a place (or two) that makes her feel good about herself, both inside and out. As Shakira would say, release your inner She-Wolf! These places not only make me feel good about myself but slightly empowered. Now, if only I could get that dang Shakira song out of my head!

Virgin Territory (23)

You always remember your first...unless it involved alcohol

Cold as Ice! (16)

The places I like that blast the AC

My Decemburger journey/Mon voyage de décemburgère (7)

Can I handle 22 burger spots in one month? As Decemburger bears upon me, I set myself up to sample what may be the best (or worst) burgers of my life.

My Comfort Zones (11)

These are places that make me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside. I venture here often.

Washington, DC (9)

The places I visited on my last trip

Sush-sush-sushi-ooooo! (8)

My best and worst

Sugar Coma (5)

Desserts so good, I wouldn't share with my mom.

Thunderstorms? Pshaw! (6)

I believe thunderstorms should only be enjoyed from the comfort of my bed. But if I did go out, it would only be to these places.

Cut-eye and Steups (3)

I'm judgmental when it comes to my own culture's food!
