    There are 5-7 pairs of Tom Ford Suede Loafers at Holt Renfrew Last Call at Vaughan Mills. They are all smaller sizes. Also a pair of John Lobbs in a 7.5, oxblood colour. Could not see price on them as they are in the case.

    Totally unintentional. The server was completely distracted and never really focused. It seems like despite there being multiple people in the room he was the only one actually taking orders.

    Toronto restaurant recommendation

    Had dinner at Fishbar on Ossington. I don't understand the recent reviews and hype. While the food was servicable, it was expensive and the service was inattentive to flaky at best. I would not recommend or return when there are so many other places in the same price range ($150 for 2) that...

    Is bring your own wine ever good in Toronto? I think it is only worth while if you have something rare or expensive and how much of a mark up on teh wines on the menu are. There are places that have specials on corkage. My meal at scaramouche this week was well executed and tasted good, but...

    Have a dinner coming up at scaramouche. Any suggestions for must have dishes? Also recently visited george and had a great meal. It was a modified tasting menu. Best thing is that they accommodate specific tastes and provide distinct menus for each person.

    Harry Rosen pricing/business model

    I've had good luck with a SA. He calls when sales are on and price adjusted a sport coat that I bought earlier in the season when it went on sale without me even asking hen I was in buying things on sale. I bought a MTM suit, that arrived 4 weeks late and they gave me a gift card for about 20%...

    Out of these shops, which are worth it?

    Since you are at square one, it may be worth a trip over to the heartland centre to the harry rosen outlet. Just be careful and know what things cost and are on sale for.

    For smoked meat also try the free times cafe, they have goldins. It is good, but different than caplanskys. I'm a caplanskys original from the monarch days, but will give a nod to goldins.

    I wanted to dislike it, but parts and labour is really good. Have eaten there twice and both times very good food, excellence service and friendly wait staff that answer lots of questions and don't mind asking the kitchen if it can do small subs. Best dish by far is the homemade candy tray...

    Toronto restaurant recommendation

    It didn't exactly get a good review this weekend: Wabora Read the review and agree with points in it (pens on table, fast pacing of meal). However, they are not known for their sushi, but their rolls so comparing to "real" sushi places, even those in the annex is a bit off. Agree that sushi...

    went to wabora in the thomson for "sushi". The focus of the place is rolls. It was pretty good. Shared 7 rolls, plus desert plus a few typical sides. One warning is the sides are really small and expensive for what you get - vegetable tempura sticks out 3 pieces for around $9.

    The MBA Thread

    I should've gotten an MBA. Sounds fun. More fun would be spending the tuition fees on partying. More fun, learn more and less chance of being surrounded by pompous twerps for 2 years. This advice from a top The Economist ranked global MBA.

    Despite my recommendations for better places, ended up at vertical for dinner. Not the best place to go on a friday night. Empty restaurants are depressing as hell.
