jasonskanks Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 So next weekend a couple friends and I are going up to Toronto for the Comicon, can you guys suggest anything fun to do, good places to eat, etc? Anyone from Toronto want to meet up? Lets do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjaicomo Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 http://smokespoutinerie.com/main.html Sonic Boom is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brentoage Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Sonic Boom is awesome. sonic boom is generally more expensive than every other record store in the city. it's still worth checking out if you have the time, but don't make it your only stop. make sure you get to both hits and misses + rotate this (easy to do as they are next door to one another).

wiggs1441 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 ^Agreed aswell. Sneaky Dee's have great nachos. Rotate This is a great record store. Steam Whistle is a sick brewery. Check out The BQM. Great Burgers and they serve PBR. http://www.burgershoppe.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patron Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I've never actually had Smokes, but I always notice it whenever I'm on Queen. I realize you'd already come to Toronto by this point, but Silver Snail on Queen is a massive comic store, and Pizziolo has a slice (which is easily 2xslices from anywhere else) and a pop for $5, including a bunch of vegetarian and vegan slices.

circlingvultures Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I love Silver Snail. I don't actually know why since I don't have any interest in comics but I always stop in and look at their toys and window display. Also there is nothing better then grabbing food (nachos) at Sneaky Dees then walking upstairs for a show. I always thought it was kind of weird how they served shots on plates though. If anyone knows someone that works at Rotate This, or is just ballsy, I really want that autographed picture of Stompin' Tom Connors that's on the wall.
