Trendy Mexican Restaurant in Toronto. They have three locations, but this one is closest to our house on the east side of the city. If you are downtown, there are two other options. Great taco's, and amazing churros. They play music pretty load, so it's not a quiet eating establishment.

Drinks & Nightlife

A tiny newly renovated Irish pub 3 blocks from our house. If you fancy a cheeky pint prior to heading downtown, this is the closest pub option. It is very small pub, so it's not good for large groups.

Sightseeing

This is one of the best spots in Toronto to get a great photo of the entire Toronto skyline. You can get right up to the water and see a full panorama shot of the downtown core. It's wise to go in the morning, so the sun is low on the horizon (less shadows on your face)........or at sunset when the sun backlights all the building.

Bars, Restaurants, Nightclubs, shops, desert shops, funky eateries, trendy fashion, good Vietnamese Pho and lot of local flare. The Ossington Strip is good for a walk and a pint. Lots of people say it has that Brooklyn NY feel.
