    Midtown Toronto

    That's really cool, this area needs a good pizza place. On a semantic note though, isn't every pizza place a customize your own pizza place?

    Different flavour palates.

    So I've been in this city my whole life and I have a couple restaurants that hit the mark for this, but I want to know more places that don't change the flavour palate of their food to a more North American palate. By this I'm not talking about "authenticity". A restaurant can be contemporary...

    Does Toronto's multiculturalism really contrast with the "melting pot" of American cities?

    It is important to note where our national policy of multiculturalism came from. It came to dampen the separatism in Quebec. The Quebecois were using their unique cultural heritage as a way to levy more power in Canadian politics and push for more seperation. Multiculturalism policies were...

    Who's to blame for Toronto's real estate market?

    He makes an interesting argument about the unfair playing field given to home ownership. What do you all think...

    Welcome to the New Toronto: the most fascinatingly boring city in the world.

    I agree, Toronto is not built for its weather. It's funny to see the whole city get so surprised when winter comes. But in general we dont design it to be very lively in many places. We design a lot of dead space here.

    Toronto Ridiculous NIMBYism thread

    I guess you have a point. I was reading an article lately that in Toronto it's not supply that is causing the increase prices, it's actually demand. More people are buying second and third homes as investments and rental opportunities causing higher demands. While there is enough housing to meet...

    Welcome to the New Toronto: the most fascinatingly boring city in the world.

    This is Bay and Bloor taken on a weekday at 10:30. Heart of the city and not a soul in site. This is one of those contradictory moments for me, since it happens on a regular basis. I'm outside past 10 and no one is around. If it were any other city I would be scared to be a victim of crime...

    Toronto Ridiculous NIMBYism thread

    Is it really nimbyism that prevents the development of housing in Toronto, or just rich land owners who want to make sure their property and rent value don't decrease with increased competition?

    Toronto The Bentway (was Under Gardiner) | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    What do you guys think about this idea to transform under the Gardiner? I have always though they should do something under there, I was thinking more along the lines of those markets you see in Paris on islands in the middle of the roads, but this is cool too. Concerns are the noise from the...

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    You're right it has a large possibility to be exactly what you just said. I'm hoping it turns out to be more a place to hang out. I spent many nights in the arcades in Japan because they were so fun. They were built for the local population as a place to hang out in. I'm hoping Cineplex mirrors...

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    Ah I haven't seen the Edmonton one. I am sorry to hear it isn't good, because I'm hoping the Toronto one is. There is Dave and Buster's and Playdium, but they were always to me a bit mediocre compared to what's out there in the rest of the world. Plus they are so far away. One thing I could...

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    It depends. A lot of people are looking for things to do in this city. There is a lot of untapped potential here. Entertainment is kind of monotone here. This will provide a bit of variety of it is planned well. Cineplex seems like it knows what it's doing, and there are plenty of models for...

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    My friend is the sous chef at the restaurant, he says it's opening in June. I can't wait. One of my favourite things in East Asia were all the arcades.

    How authentic are Toronto's ethnic cuisines to people from?

    In my opinion a lot are influenced by where it came from, but many are not authentic as they change their taste to a North American palate. I can tell you from the counties I have been to for extended periods of time, the cuisine there tastes very little like their counterparts here. I wish...

    New entertainment complex being opened up

    A bit of old news, but I know the sous chef in the restaurant. He says it's going to open in June. I can't wait, this is such a nice hole to be filled. I'm happy a Canadian company has seen it and filled it. I hope it's as fun as the ones in East Asia, and doesn't close at 10pm...

    John Street Roundhouse: Toronto Railway Heritage Centre, Steam Whistle, The Rec Room

    Cherry Street Nightclub

    Downsview would be good, they already host that rock music festival in Downsview park in the summer, (correct me if I'm wrong but I think they host the EDM one there too). Perhaps a more permanent seasonal nightclub could do something there. In honesty though I'm not in that area much so I don't...
