This summer has been full of adventure.
The whole "jam packing the weekends" keeps making it harder to go back to work week after week.
This past weekend we took a 2 day trip with a group of great friends & the Boo.
Left on Saturday morning to Canada & first stop......
Brunch
Sunset Grill
2313 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON -
Fruit Parfait with Granola and honey on the side, absolutely disgusting. Take my word on that.
Next up
Yankees VS Toronto Blue Jays
@ Rogers Stadium
Rogers Centre (formerly known as the SkyDome) is a multi-purpose stadium, in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada, situated next to the CN Tower,
C.C. Sabathia, pitcher for the New York Yankees.
So close yet sooooo far
No doubt it's CC with that tummy of his
So many fans came out to watch the game but man
Canadians were pooing at the mouth for that game,
too bad the Yankees set up to win in the first couple of innings.
That really shut them up.
Defining the Toronto skyline, the tower is the world's tallest building and free standing structure.
A reunion between good friends
Thai Festival
For $4 bucks it was the best bang for your buck
From south to north Paid Thai, Mango Chicken, Beef Tamarind
A Summary of Day 1 so far
Dundas E & Yonge Street
I hate to consistently compare this to NYC but come on.
This Mini time square
Taking the Subway
Tokens
Typical the train looks wider but the seats are smaller.
Got to K-Town a bit tooo late.
I had wanted to go to Morning Glory and Shesido,
but that plan failed when I got there at around 7 pm on a Saturday.

The best customer Service by far she was soooooo sweet. and it's a cute boutique.
We then went to have Din DIN.
I am not going to lie I have no idea where we went.
With so many places to go and never having heard of a single review
of any places it was like the luck of the draw.
The goal was for some Soon-dae-guk and based on the Hubz we struck gold
dolsot bibimbap (돌솥 비빔밥, "dolsot" meaning "stone pot")
"Sundae (Korean pronunciation: [sundɛ], also sometimes spelled soondae) is a Korean dish made generally by boiling or steaming cow or pig's intestines that are stuffed with various ingredients. It is a kind of blood sausage and believed to have been eaten for a long time." Source Wiki Back to the Subway line
Day 2
What they make here is fresh & very delicious.
Great Food, Horrible Service
Pretty much this was the issue.................. what you would normally think would be the entrance because of the sub corner of the flow of street traffic based on how most people walk in neighborhoods you would think that the entrance would be where the most traffic is locted to get customers in.
Well it's not. I get that they might have to tell people all the time "Please don't go through the kitchen to walk into the market?" But if it's happening 5 times while we were sitting there for about 20 mins, then it's not really the people you should blame it should be the layout of the store in general.
But on the real tip the food was great, fresh orange juice and the croissants were perfect. Oh, there was a mature lady at the counter and her whole persona was off and she was sooo rude.
She would just stand there and stare at us. I was going to take a pic of her since it look like she wanted to pose for the camera. but let me know if I was wrong about saying this and it just so happened they were all on their periods that day.
But in the last hour the hubz was still in search for delish Korean dishes.
We found this Yummy BBQ.
First customers of the day and we took the food to go
We stayed at the Country Yard Marriot,
And we had an Amazing view of the city.
"Street Cars"
"Taxi's"
"Bye Bye Rogers Center"
"Bye Bye CN Tower"
OFF TO MISSAGUA
Stocking up on food!!!!!
Dim Sum via carts
Mango Custard, topped with cocktail fruit and Milk
That is how we ended the tour, Looking back I should have taken more pics but I am sure there will be next time.
