TRIP TO TORONTO. WHAT TO DO...


The thing is that I will be visiting my son who is studying at the University of Toronto next Easter week.

My interests when visiting a new city -apart from blues and rock music shows- are:

1.- Contemporary architecture;

2.- Discovering places and neighborhoods not mentioned on tourist guides;

3.- One day trip to towns around the main city;

4.- Local "cuisine" as there´s an Spanish cuisine. Not meaning "hi-end cuisine" a la Ferrán Adriá. This trend seems to me like 70s progressive music -how to get the more complicated pentatonic scale-. Let´s keep it simple;

5.- Eating on the cheap. I mean affordable prices. Not breaking the bank;

6.- Drinking undiscovered beers and/or unexpected wines

7.- Bookstores (if they still exists); CD stores -if they still exist- and why not -the vice strikes again- audio stores -if they still exist-;

I´m open to your suggestions.

Thank you all.

Hi

I just seen it today in the evening news, Toronto is the 4th
largest city in North America. You are lucky to come Easter week, it has been very cold so far,it is about to warm up by the end of this week. How do you like traffic? And in regards to CN Tower the bottom part looks bad ,its made of concrete in the 70's and now it can use some restoration work. Check the ROM [ Royal Ontario Museum ] at Bloor & St George and few blocks away on Bloor & Bay ,stop at Bay Bloor Radio .
