Recently, I discovered Leslieville, which is located east of the River Don centered around Queen East. Allegedly, it is the burgeoning neighbourhood in town. I very much like the attitude with which it comes across: somewhere in between 'who gives a crap anyway' and 'one day it's going to be big, really big'. Certainly prone to be taken over by the wealthy hipsters as soon as the development shows. Brunch and shopping (clothes, furniture) are refreshingly unpretentious.
