#93 Lindt Outlet Boutique Etobicoke

by

Lindt ChocolateMany say that a way to a woman’s heart is through chocolate. Many health studies say that chocolate, in moderation of course, is good for you. Luckily for us, the Lindt Outlet Boutique in Etobicoke is offering all of this at great savings.

Lindt Outlet Boutique Etobicoke, located at 1557 The Queensway (located in the Queensway Commons group of stores between the 427 and Kipling), is a chocolate lovers dream. Even if I wasn’t craving chocolate (and I’m craving it right now as I write this) one step inside and the delicious smell overwhelms me. And with that, they have me. With so many different assortments you’ll find your perfect chocolate treat whether you buy an individual piece or in bulk. And the deals are great too at 15% to 50% off retail with sale items running 75% off year round.

The Lindt Etobicoke outlet has chocolates for every occassion and holiday. Easter, Christmas, Valentines, it’s all here. From dark chocolate to double-milk, boxed and unboxed. They also have bottles of liquid chocolate, perfect for baking or for pouring over ice cream. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

With Valentines Day right around the corner, I’d recommend going to the Lindt Outlet Boutique in Etobicoke sooner rather than later. And while you’re there pick up something for yourself.

#92 Kalamata Restaurant

by

Chicken SouvlakiOpa! This is what you yell out as the saganaki is lit and flames shoot up into the air. The tradition never gets old. Much like coming to Kalamata Restaurant for a great and filling Greek meal.

Kalamata Restaurant, located at 1233 The Queensway (just east of Islington), is an authentic Greek restaurant in the heart of South Etobicoke. Boasting recipes “that have been part of the family for over 50 years” this is the place you come to for a traditional or modern Greek meal. With so many mouth-watering items on the menu, each more filling than the last, you could visit Kalamata for two weeks straight and never repeat a meal.

Whether you’re here For lunch, dinner, or brunch on the weekends you’ll always have plenty to choose from. Recommended salads are the traditional Greek or the Kalamata Caesar specialty. Kalamari (note the “K”) come crispy or grilled but always delicious. The aforementioned saganaki is always fun. The chicken, lamb, and pork souvlaki pitas are all hearty meals at a very reasonable price and you can’t go wrong with any of the Kalamata flat breads. For groups nothing beats one of the mezes platters for sharing. A rack of lamb or the steak and kalamari and you’re set for dinner.

In addition to sitting in the dining room, delivery and takeout is available. Kalamata also has a banquet hall which is perfect for weddings, baptisms, or business functions. They also do catering.

You don’t have to go all the way to the Danforth to have a traditional Greek meal. You can simply come down to Islington and the Queensway in Etobicoke and eat to your heart’s content at Kalamata Restaurant.

#91 Mastermind Toys

by

In today’s age of video games and touchpads it’s nice to know that a store like Mastermind Toys aims to expand a child’s knowledge through their own imagination and curiosity.

Mastermind Toys, located at 4242 Dundas Street West in Etobicoke, carries a wide range of toys, games, and books for kids of all ages. In fact, walking through the store I can’t help but notice games and toys that I enjoyed as a child. While video games of just last year grow stale I know for a fact that my nieces and nephews always love to play a game of Snake and Ladders. Mastermind Toys searches the globe for the newest innovative toys and games that will entertain and challenge kids.

Mastermind Toys has it all. Science kits, board games, remote control toys, Thomas the Tank Engine, Lego, toys for outdoors, dress up, construction toys, the list just goes on and on. Educational and fun, there’s stuff for newborns right up to kids entering their teen years. Mind you I have no doubt that if you’re an adult you’d probably find lots of interesting stuff for yourself as well.

Another great thing that Mastermind Toys offers is complimentary gift wrapping, year round! A few stores offer complimentary gift wrap during the Christmas season but to offer it no matter what the season, Mastermind Toys helps those parents on the go.

If you’re searching for a gift for your young one why not try something different? Instead of action figures or video games get them something from Mastermind Toys that will not only entertain them, but maybe just teach them something along the way.


WHERE: 4242 Dundas Street West, Etobicoke, ON M8X 1X3, 416-239-1600

#90 Spoon and Fork Etobicoke

by

Spoon and ForkDespite the yummy sound of “all-you-can-eat” sushi, the fact of the matter is that most of these types of restaurants serve sloppy and hastily put together rolls and sashimi. By calling it “all-you-can-taste” Spoon and Fork has already raised the classiness level a couple of notches.

Spoon and Fork Etobicoke, located at 1233 The Queensway (just east of Islington), is an upscale restaurant that serves “all-you-can-taste” Japanese and Thai cuisine. Note that when I use the word upscale I’m not equating the place to some snooty, expensive restaurant. The first thing you’ll notice is that the place is busy. If you don’t have reservations expect to be waiting 30 to 45 minutes for a table. It’s not the end of the world if you do have to wait however, as you can grab a seat at the bar and chat up the bartender, or more importantly, your date.

When it comes to food Spoon and Fork is no slouch. You can order from the regular menu but honestly, where’s the fun in that. The tasting menu, at a mere $28 per person, is where the fun is at. It’s from here that you can select from a variety of options. From tasty apps such as saute chicken skewers and mango salad, to traditional Japanese fare such as sashimi and California rolls, to Thai mains such as Pad Thai and cashew chicken. The great thing is that all these portions are built to share. I’m not doing the menu justice as you really have to see it for yourself. Obviously don’t overorder too much as any leftover food will be charged to you but trust me, this won’t be a problem as everything we had was fantastic and we finished every last bite.

So if you have a group of friends and you can’t really decide on what you’d like to eat, check out Spoon and Fork Etobicoke. There’s something for everyone and you’ll have fun sharing your food. Afterall, sharing is caring.



WHERE: 1233 The Queensway, Unit 24, Etobicoke, ON M8Z 1S1, 416-201-8688
WHEN: Lunch: Mon-Sun 11:30am – 3:00pm, Dinner: Sun-Thurs 4:30pm – 10:00pm, Fri-Sat 4:30pm – 11:00pm
