    Cabbagetown

    Thanks Dilla...I'll look into that. I just couldn't believe that there wasn't anything, but maybe these places are just not great at being internet searchable.

    Cabbagetown

    I just moved into the neighbourhood and my wife's looking for a local yoga or pilates studio (preferably both), but not having much luck. Are there any that anybody knows of? The only one I was able to find was this 'renaissance yoga' place that sounds a little too...out there...for what she's...

    Best Burger

    I've had the Burger's Priest twice now - the second time to confirm my original impression that it really wasn't all that special. I didn't dislike it by any means, but to me it just tasted like a fairly regular burger made with good-quality ingredients. I know it gets generally rave reviews on...

    Why to support the Liberal Party

    I agree with Tewder (with the exception of Paul Martin...I think people still like him), but I really don't understand it. I've always thought that Canada was a "vote for the party, not your MP" sort of place, and I especially don't understand voting (or not voting) for a party solely...

    Condominiums / Town Houses with Gas Cooking

    Not sure if it qualifies as "newer" (built around 2001, I think), but my unit in the District Lofts (388 Richmond St W) has a gas stove and a gas BBQ connection.

    sign a buyer agent contract?

    My girlfriend and I are in the market for a new place, and we had originally planned to buy a resale house in or around downtown (say, Ossington to around Parliament, and King up to Bloor) but have noticed a few preconstruction townhouse projects on the market now that seem to offer good layouts...

    Can you solve this "Where in Toronto" riddle?

    Urbantoronto itself? Or something like skyscraperpage?

    Toronto Bike Share

    Are they ever going to release the locations for the bike rental points? It starts in a month and a half...you'd think that they'd have to have at least decided where they'll be by now.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    For dialing a number with letters in it, hit the 'Alt' key when you're typing the letters. It'll convert them into numbers automatically (when it dials).

    Best Burger

    I had the Drake burger yesterday...very good, juicy and had interesting toppings. The only comment I might have is that the meat didn't have enough of the grilled beefy flavour that I like in a burger, but overall it was still a great burger (the fries were quite good as well). Also, they can...

    Can't close my Neptune Condo - Take it off my hands

    I would be extremely surprised if they allowed the corporation to take out a mortgage without having it guaranteed by someone else.

    R.I.D.E. Program

    Regarding the comment about the police searching your car at a RIDE check, this was actually the subject of a Supreme Court case (Mellenthin) whereby the court found that a visual inspection of a car with a flashlight after dark was necessary to conduct a correct RIDE check, but also...

    John Street Ideas Competition - TED BIA - Support The ORE

    Exactly how I feel (and how I voted). I really like the idea of stairs to nowhere, I just didn't love these stairs so much. I think such stairs should be monumental, especially if they're mainly going to be used as seats. Risers two feet high...that sort of thing. These stairs just looked a...

    Best Burger

    Craft burger is good (especially for what's becoming a chain), but I don't like that you can't get it cooked to order. That's what I like about the grindhouse...the few times I've forgotten to specify doneness they do it (I assume) medium well or well and it was a bit dry, but when I ask for it...

    Best Burger

    I love the Grindhouse (King and Peter), and I've also heard that the Burger's Priest in the east end is great (although I haven't had one myself). Never tried the Drake...I'll have to get out there sometime. Most overrated burger in my opinion: Allen's on the Danforth.

    IKEA: hardest piece you've assembled?

    The Besta Burs TV bench (not sure if that's the same as the wall unit mentioned above). It looks simple, but it took my girlfriend and I about 5 hours of solid work to put it together (we made one mistake, but nothing huge). It looks nice once assembled, but it's got a lot more parts than you'd...

    John Street Ideas Competition - TED BIA - Support The ORE

    I have long thought that that area, as currently designed, was a waste of space. It's cut off from the street by that weird structure and the planters, and although I walk by there almost every day I'm not really sure what's behind those planters. Personally I think that a row of stores would do...

    Favourite Cities?

    Not to change things, but has anyone lived in any non-Toronto cities that they would recommend? I'd be interested to hear how these cities work for liveability. The only city (other than toronto) I've spent any amount of time in was Amsterdam, where I lived for about four months in 2006. It was...

    What's wrong with the Kobo, by the way? I'm considering getting an e-book and the Kobo seems to be a pretty good deal...

    Rob Ford - Why the Supervillian?

    That's one of the funniest things I've read in a while.
