Garden @ Eleven Enters the Deadpool
You'd think scoring a corner location for a restaurant right across from St. Lawrence Market would be akin to printing money. But if the past two incarnations at 11 Jarvis Street are any sort of measuring stick it looks like this spot hasn't done much to pad anyone's wallet - except maybe the…
Ruins along the Scarborough Bluffs
Sunday turned nice and computers were turned off and left at home for a trip to (what feels like) the most remote part of Toronto: the beach along the Scarborough Bluffs. We started at the Guild Inn and made our way down an old abandoned road to the lake. You can trace our route [...]

New Digs
I think it’d be fair by now to call myself a grizzled Toronto veteran. I moved today into my twelfth (yes 12th) different house/apartment/condo in my life. While moving is a pain, I’ve amassed a wealth of urban experience that I’ve realized can only help me in my public relations career,…
