Langton Salon Spa
201 King E, Toronto

wow, now i am one of those people who has had gone to the same hair stylist since grade 8 and feels guilty about an appointment with anyone but. after moving to toronto i was hesitant to trust another unfamiliar stylist with this particular undertaking. although i had never been, i read up on langton salon and was pleasantly surprised to discover their flawless reputation. my appointment with joe was amazingly insightful and i even walked out with a purse-sized samples! (cut approx. $75+)

portuguese garlic loaf

Nova Era Bakery
Multiple Locations

without a doubt the most flavourful garlic bread i have ever had. it is fresh chopped garlic with butter and topped with freshly minced herbs and grated parmesean cheese to add that extra little punch of flavour. for an entire baguette it is under $4 but you better get them while you can, they are a favourite!!

Toba Restaurant
243 King Street East, Toronto

'the relaxed, casual atmosphere at Toba makes it an ideal setting for a first or fiftieth date, or a brunch rendez-vous with busy friends.' this quaint dining space has so much personality between the pin up art on the walls and the explosive flavours found in these unique takes on classic recipes. the wine list is decent, with a variety of wines sold by the class or bottle at a fair price. definitely a place to stop when in the king east furniture and theatre district.
