Re: Fave jogging route at Greenbelt trail

So good to know about this! I'm training for the Boston Marathon now, and always running. The more areas/routes to explore the better!

Hey there! Great faves so far. Enjoy the site! I too have "faved" Banjara, but the one on Bloor. And Greg's is totally awesome to be sure (I once had a banana bread/walnut one there that was pretty stand-out, and I know that marshmallow is pretty one-of-a-kind), but seriously, try the Mapleton's Dairy ice cream they have at the Film Buff before you make your mind up. Hard to beat.

Claire's attention to detail is outstanding! She has developed her own hand-written fonts and creates delicate, simple, classic pieces. Good for weddings (invitations, seating cards, etc.), or any occasion. Beautiful! check out her website: www.clairereyes.com

Best because: the size, the music, the open sky. My husband and I fell in love skating on this rink. The trip down to the waterfront carrying skates on the streetcar always gets me excited like a little kid. What I would change: a few less fast-skating dangerous jerks would be nice.

The Margherita slice is to die for. My favourite late-night walking and eating slice... super greasy (and therefore super yummy), so get extra napkins.

Taste of Thai House

My hubby and I have been eating here for over two years. It's our "local" Thai place (not really down town), but we've not found another one in the whole city that we like as much. Yes - not even Salad King! Everything is fresh and flavourful, and the meats are good quality (not squeaky, or mushy or creepy, like some places). The Fried Garlic & Pepper tofu is to DIE for! We've had only one dish we didn't really love (the Pad Thai), everything else has been great. NOTE: Cash only

Simple charming homey decor, with big windows to allow the sun to pour in. More importantly, delicious food for breakfast OR lunch! Build your own omelettes and sandwiches are brilliant! My hubby LOVES the pulled pork n beans. Soups are always fresh and yummy. Organic ingredients and serving of products (bread, meats, desserts) from other local shops are a really smart and confidence-inducing choice on the part of the chef.

St. Urbain Bagel Bakery
895 Eglinton Avenue West

Mmmm... steamy windows! The bagels are so hot and fresh that the windows are always damp. Love it. The shop on Eglinton is tops, but the St Lawrence Market stand will do in a pinch. The bagels are amazing Montreal-style: small, chewy, sweet and dense. Perfection.

Good reliable pub food to eat while playing LIVE (classic!) pub trivia on Tuesday nights, 8pm. The hosts are great, the trivia is tough enough to make it interesting and challenging (none of this TV screen stuff!), and there are some great regulars who are seriously (though quietly) competitive. Just save me a table!

My borders of choice are Arlington (W), Davenport (S), Yonge (E), Ava (N). Greenbelt area, or anywhere in the residential Forest Hill area, including Casa Loma's KILLER stairs! Love Winston Churchill park at St Clair: the track, the south steps, the green space. North into the great residential areas (SO lovely in the morning... wide quiet streets, lots of sprinklers to run through!).

Great selection of blank and written cards; great gifts (knick knacks, bath goodies, bags, baby gear, note books); and great wrapping paper. This is always my first stop for greeting cards.

So many great pieces (jewellery, bags, hats, wallets, shoes, trinkets, scarves...) that you would be hard-pressed to find elsewhere in the city. When the shops in the malls are killing your soul, stop at Trove and make it all better.

Banjara Indian Cuisine (Christie Pits)

Toronto M6G 1L7
p: 416-963-9360
GREAT food. So fresh, so flavourful. The service was pretty bad for the first 6 months, but they're getting better, and the food makes any bad service worth it, anyway! Try the spinach daal, the butter chicken, the korma... mmmm. It's what we're having for Valentine's day dinner!

Wayne is one of the best servers in the city! So professional and courteous. The food is really good... such strange options: everything from burgers to mussels to salmon to pasta to steak! The prices are entirely reasonable for the quality (and portion size!!) of food. The space is so cute and tiny... it really does feel like a secret little heaven. A good destination if you're around the Forest Hill Area.

No contest: best the in the city. Toffee Coffee. Banana Chocolate. Sweet Cream. Mmmm.
