Ticking Off the Toronto Bucket List: Week #1

Hey Everyone!

After making my Toronto Bucket List last week, I was actually able to fit in some time to successfully tick off a few things from my list! However, I also added to my list during the week. This list is going to be pretty hard to accomplish with just 5 months to go! But can I do it?! I think so! 

Here's what I did: 

Dark Horse Espresso Bar 

215 Spadina Ave Suite 102

Latte was lovely! Beautiful art. Great space. Lots of light coming through their big windows which face Spadina ave! I'd for sure go back :) It's more of a "business professional" type place because it is located in an office building, but it's still great! There are other locations around in the city which I'm sure are lovely too! 

One of a Kind Show and Sale 

Exhibition Place

Lots of fantastic ideas!! Apparently their Christmas sale is even bigger and has even more things to look at! Unfortunately I'll be missing the Christmas sale, but at least I got to attend this one! We found all sorts of creative and interesting things. Even chocolate hummus! Can you imagine?! My friend said it was good! I personally loved the dill hummus a lot! I think we're going to try making it sometime!

Sadie's Diner 

504 Adelaide Street West

Now, this place always seems to get rave reviews. It's a vegan/vegetarian friendly diner, with free-range eggs, vegan this and that, and a cute retro feel. I must say, the smoothie I had was delicious. My friend swears by them! However, the food was... "okay". I almost felt like the food we were served was a bit stale. I was a tad disappointed since so many love this place and say it's amazing. However, my vegan sausages were a bit dry, though I feel like vegan sausages are always going to be a bit dry. My friend's meal was also a bit unimpressive. We kept thinking "Aunties and Uncles is way better!". Perhaps I'll need to try this place again sometime in the future, but at least I tried it once right! 

There you have it! 

One week down! 

21 more to go! 

Keep Smiling :)
