"Flame-seared sushi is the star of the menu at Miku, where elements of French and Italian cuisine also complement Japanese cuisine. Using the same Aburi At Home app as Aburi Hana, Miku has an extensive menu to choose from. Bespoke tiers piled with hot appetizers, sushi, sashimi, or maki rolls range from $50 to $85, while sushi platters, which include anywhere from 14 to 52 pieces range in price from $26 to $77."

"This is a dine-in and all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant overseeing Yonge-Dundas Square that offers iPad-ordering (really, how great is the future?) for its large menu selection. Not only do they serve Japanese cuisine, they also dabble in Thai nowadays, so you can grab a pad thai easily from the menu. But the best part is that they offer 10% discounts to students."
"In contrast to Yukashi where you won’t find a single sushi roll, Omai specializes in exactly that. The Japanese restaurant is minimal and understated, perfectly complementing the concept of temaki. The pre-seasoned hand rolls are designed to be easy to eat."
"A post shared by Ryan Hu (@ryanhanhu) on Jun 18, 2016 at 10:04pm PDT. With its warm and inviting ambiance and superb food offerings, the long-established Yamato has been the top place to find authentic Japanese eats since the ‘80s. It is known to be one of the oldest teppanyaki-style venues in Canada."
"Sushi, Japanese, Rolls, Sashimi, Take Out, Ume Roll, California Roll, Salmon, Spicy Salmon, Restaurant. Ume Fashion Sushi is considered a hidden gem. Located in the heart of Scarborough we aim to impress!"
"This hidden treasure on Brimley Road might be one of the best insights into how early settlers lived when they arrived in Scarborough, before it became on the biggest suburbs in the 20th century. Set off a series of trails and greenery of the Thomson Memorial Park, this series of four buildings is especially beautiful in the summertime."
"Located to the northeast of the city along the Don Valley Parkway in North York, the Science Centre is known for the featured exhibits, interactive science displays, and an IMAX theatre. They even have a rainforest area which is climate controlled to help grow different plants to discuss ecology. All in all, the Science Centre is a great way to kill a few hours or entertain the kids if you want more ideas!"
"COVID-19 alert: The Ontario Science Centre is currently closed. You could spend days or even weeks exploring the amazing Ontario Science Centre with kids and still not see it all. Kids learn about electricity, physics, and the natural world through hundreds of hands-on exhibits and exciting live shows like the Energy Show, featuring a working Tesla coil."
"Visiting the Ontario Science Centre is a great way to connect with your inner Bill Nye, the Science Guy. Even kids who don't seem keen on science will be enthralled by over 800 interactive exhibits. This museum of science is designed to spark curiosity and even spark you with high-voltage electricity (pain free) to make your hair stand on end."
"Spend your afternoon in the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) where you can see numerous collections of art from around the world and the largest Canadian art collection. There are so many things to do in Toronto so next up is Nathan Phillips Square where you can take a picture with the iconic Toronto sign and see the new city hall. The Old City Hall is just to the right, an old Romanesque building. If you’re visiting in the winter you can go skating in the square for free."
"Stay aboard for the full two-hour tour, or if you're itching to tackle Toronto , hop off at one of the 21 stops, which include many of Toronto's top attractions, such as the CN Tower, the Eaton Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario, Casa Loma and the Royal Ontario Museum. Consult with the guides for optimum planning and when the busses will be stopping at certain locations. Don't miss the boat tour at the Harbourfront, which is included in your ticket."
"Originally known as the Don Valley brickworks a factory dedicated to produce the bricks that build Toronto, after closing its doors in the 1980s all that was left was crumbling buildings and a damage ecosystem. The journey to transform this space started in 2002 by evergreen a Canadian environmental charity with the idea to build an ecological center with a social enterprise, the design and construction was a joint venture between Du Toit Allsopp Hiller Architects and Diamond and Schmitt Architects who developed in what it is now, the first large-scale community environmental centre in Canada."
"Located in the Don Valley, Brick Works Park showcases Toronto’s dedication to healthy and diverse ecosystems. The area is one of the city’s most valued natural environment parks and is home to wetlands, wild flower meadows, forest habitats, and steep cliff faces, not to mention the many species that call the park home. Transformed from a quarry site into a nature sanctuary, the park is directly north of the fabulous Evergreen Brick Works."
"Inspired by German beer gardens, owners Stephane Dubois and Shehzad Hamza have decked out Bandit’s spacious Dundas West patio with picnic tables and twinkly lit trees, i.e., the coziest atmosphere for sampling the microbrewery’s range of offerings. Try the Mr. Pink, a pale ale with hints of watermelon, hibiscus and orange, or the Wizard of Gose, a quenching sour that smells like apricot."
"If the adorable branding doesn’t grab your attention, the beer certainly will. Open since May, Bandit Brewery in Roncesvalles is currently brewing 15 beers, eight of which are on tap when I visit. The sprawling space is a hive of activity on a Saturday night with servers weaving in between tables of happy beer drinkers to deliver flights and food."
"21 Doughnut aficionados no longer have to make the pilgrimage to this Hamilton-based bakery for their yeast-risen rings, now that the brand has a booth at Stackt, Toronto’s new shipping container market. The selection changes daily, but their roster of rotating flavours has included lavender-lemon, blood-orange hibiscus, raspberry-habanero and the #Hamont Cream-Filled, Donut Monster’s take on the beloved Boston Cream. There is no wrong choice."
"Founded in 2002 by Bay St. lawyers Shawn Hewson and Ruth Promislow, Bustle Clothing is a leading Canadian sportswear label, known for its cheeky twist on menswear classics. Shop their new unisex collaboration – Playboy X Bustle. The collection includes: heritage classics, collegiate prep, streetwear, vintage-inspired T-shirts and accessories."
"This is one of our all-time favourite spots to hang in the city. Not only is there plenty of room for kids and pets to run around, but you can also enjoy great eats and drinks at their three patios. Depending on your mood you can either grab food from the various vendors on-site or enjoy a sit-down experience."
"Burdock has a lot going on – it’s a restaurant, a music hall and it also happens to be brewing some of the best beers in the city. Go to catch some live music or sit down to a meal made with local, seasonal ingredients; but stay for the beer (or grab some to go from the bottle shop). Burdock brewed their first batch of beer in July 2015 and have been going strong ever since."
"Burdock Brewery is far from your conventional brewery, which is why it lands on a list of the best bars in Toronto. The owners aren’t just interested in beer, but also in wine, cider and the whole works. In fact, if you’ve visited, you’ll know that they’re often blending their passions, quite literally (apparently beerwine and beercider are things)."
"Burdock combines wine and beer to make beautiful, fruity hybrids. They source local Ontario fruit, and they age their beers using leftover grape skins!. Their space includes a brewery, restaurant, and a music hall, and they’ve even got a chic patio to enjoy your freshly-brewed beer."
