The Best Parks In Toronto To Visit
"Since the 1800s, when the Beach boasted amusement rides and quaint cottages, both tourists and Torontonians alike have flocked to this east-end neighbourhood. With tennis courts, a baseball diamond, wading pool in the summer and ice rink during the winter, not to mention the picturesque bandstand and playgrounds, it’s no wonder that Kew Gardens is the go-to venue for those in the know. The park regularly hosts events, with movie nights a favourite throughout the summer; it’s also home to the Beach Guild of Fine Art, a group of local artists who regularly host exhibits and sales in the Historic Gardener’s Cottage."

"The Swan, one of Toronto’s most famous diners, occupied the same space on Queen Street West for more than 20 years. Now Le Swan has taken over to serve French bistro food alongside diner classics - think charcuterie followed by a tuna melt and steak frites with a side of grilled cheese. The menu here includes both dishes that you’d find in a Grey Poupon commercial and food that feels sort of like time travel, which makes it a little different than just about anywhere else in the city."

Toronto’s best coffee shops Downtown Part 1
"The Dundas west location of Café Plenty is a neat little spot in the middle of a super busy area; It’s smack across the street from Toronto Police 52 Division, on the cusp of Hospital Row and heading towards China Town west. This small yet roomy chic café is good for a croissant and latte pick-up, but if you’re hankering for more grab a sandwich and salad as well."
