Restaurant Scene
It’s often said that Toronto is the city of imagination. Nowhere is that more true than when it comes to the restaurant scene. Whatever you’re craving, the city can satisfy. Baklava dripping with honey? Head to Greektown. Butter chicken? Little India. Dim sum? Chinatown. It’s an epicure’s delight. It’s also great for those who aren’t sure what epicure means, but are hungry just the same.

Entertainment District
This area of downtown Toronto is the hotspot, where everything comes together. Watch the Blue Jays at Roger's Centre then walk over to King Street and see a musical. Take in a Second City comedy improv show,then go around the block and take your pick of the nightclubs. Follow up a candlelit meal with a motorcycle race – simulated – at Vinnie’s Social Hall, revving it up right next to the pool tables.

Distillery District
With over 40 buildings, most dating back to the mid-1800s,the Distillery District is the oldest new thing in the city. Until recently the only action on its cobblestones were film shoots. WWII Europe? Depression-era Chicago? It passed as that. Today its dramatic Victorian industrial architecture is finally being allowed to represent itself.
