A Guide to Yorkville

I would say that the two most fashionable Toronto neighborhoods are Yorkville and the West Queen West area which Vogue magazine listed as the second coolest neighborhood in the world. Yorkville is more posh while West Queen West is more hipster. I prefer Yorkville but both areas have their perks. Yorkville offers a good mix of high end and low(er) end stores as well as great restaurants.  

Here is a list of places to shop and eat while in Yorkville 

Grand Electric

Lately I have been really into food. Well restaurants in particular; I've always been into food. I tend to eat out more than the average person probably does so I figure if I'm going to be eating out I may as well eat somewhere good, right? So I've been spending a lot of my time researching and reading about where the best places to eat are in my city, and cities I visit. Among many of the lists I looked at of the best restaurants in Toronto Grand Electric on Queen Street West (a very hipster area of the city) appeared several times...soooo I HAD to try it. The other night my mom, sister, and family friends of ours went to Grand Electric and gave it a try. It's Mexican and I am a new fan of Mexican food. If anyone decides to go to Grand Electric I recommend the chips and guacamole.

Birthday Weekend

This past Friday marked my 17th birthday. Friday night as I said in my last post I went out for dinner with family. Saturday I went to an Italian restaurant with a few friends. It's safe to say Strada 241 (the name of the restaurant) may have the best pizza I have ever had. I highly recommend it. Sunday my Aunt treated me to High Tea and my Grandmother came along. We went to T-buds....best scones.
