Yelp needs a 6 star option for this one!
Obviously this Toronto party was on a completely different level and big props must be given to Vivek, all of the wonderful Yelp organizers, and of course Kat! The visit was due!

One of my favourite Yelp events.. How do I manage to say this almost every time?!
Amazing service by the people of Insomnia meant that there was constantly more food than one could try and we were never left without a drink in hand!

shots shots, shots shots shots shots!
I don't know who's horrible idea that was, but what started as a quaint night of trying tasty margaritas and sipping on fancy tequila turned into another night of Sauza bullet rounds in the patio area!…More »
Quite a bit has already been written about these red legendary suspenders, so all I would like to suggest is for Yelp HQ to start making some offish/legit ones for the Yelp store soon!
The Elite Event at Stirling Room was a definite blast. For one,…More »

My first T.O. Elite event was a definite delight! Many thanks to Kat F for organizing and all the others who were involved in the event: from beer-picking-upping to crossing off names at the door!!
To start off, the service at Negroni was great all…More »
I hate to go super cliche on all y'all but pictures do speak a thousand words, and all you have to do to know about this event is check out Dishan's pictures above! Clearly I was having more fun than should be allowed at most events, and no, I did…More »

An absolutely perfect Yelp event!
Shoutouts go to the awesome Peter D and Jane, and let's not forget about the rest of the behind the scenes team including the list ladies and Paul R (too bad he wasn't DJing!)
The hors d'oeuvres were aplenty (the tuna…More »

A big thank you to the sponsors, WAYLA lounge, and Vivek for another great event! Once again there was no shortage of creativity with all sorts of props and little games making their way through the WAYLA lounge all night.

I had a blast!
It was nice to see so many familiar faces in such a festive and cozy setting! The venue was not too crowded for the number of attendees, and there was a good amount of choice as far as food and drinks were concerned. I have to give…More »
Where do I begin...
well for starters, the delay of this review is justified as I managed to fracture my left pinkie (surprisingly insignificant in everyday life as I now realize) at some point in the night. The fact that I don't remember how it…More »
This event was not about the bar food (standard considering bar food)

What an event!
My evening got off to a great start as soon as I found out the bar was serving Havana Club, which is more or less my favorite rum, and arguably the best in its class! To top it off, the awesome bartender would hand me a fresh one not a…More »

I'm definitely not one to drink coffee on a daily basis, and the reason is two-fold: 1)I hate the coffee chains that have taken over Toronto(chain being more than 10 shops in a city). 2)Coffee is a very potent drug. At least for me!!
That being said,…More »
4.5 stars...
yup. Didn't meet Dieter, so the whole business is still some sort of a conspiracy/Yelplusion (-.05 stars, hope you're happy Dieter).
The venue was awesome and it was interesting to see that they had taken some decoration hints from some…More »
