Toronto's Best Spots of the Summer

Here are the places that are almost ritual for me to visit each summer. It just doesn't feel like summer without them!

1. Dairy Queen

East York, ON M4K 2S2
(416) 425-2261

Categories: Fast Food, Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt

Neighbourhood: East York

8/22/2009

Being the ice-cream addict that I am, monthly trips to DQ are a staple in my life. There's nothing really special about the inside of this location. It is small, the staff aren't overly friendly, it gets crowded because its one of the only fast food…More »

2. Toronto Zoo

361A Old Finch Ave
Scarborough, ON M1B 5K7

Category: Zoos

Neighbourhood: Scarborough

8/1/2009

As far as zoos go, this place is awesome. Its huge, its a lot of walking, but you do have the option of taking the "zoo mobile" for an extra $5. As far as the landscaping goes - my biggest suggestion is to skip the Canadian exhibit if you are tired…More »

I find I am beginning to love Kensington Market more and more. When I first moved to Toronto, I'll admit, I didn't get the hype. It was just a collection of fruit markets and garage-sale items.

Then I found Yelp.

There are some awesome little bars,…More »

7/27/2009

I love the Harbourfront Centre. I know I'm in for a good day if the sky is clear and I have plans to go there.

I've lived in the GTA my whole life, but I honestly think I enjoy the boat tours here more than visitors. The best one is Shark Attack -…More »

5. Toronto Island

Toronto Island
Toronto, ON M5J 1A7
(416) 392-8186

Category: Parks

8/1/2009

I love Toronto Island. The best thing to do here is rent a bike, even one of those silly 4 seaters with a group, and just go exploring. I like packing a lunch, finding a quiet spot to eat it, and just enjoying the nice weather.

This place is really…More »
