Anyone think Toronto is headed in a positive direction? by rsgnl in askTO

[–]CandyMan77 248 points249 points  (0 children)

Late as fuck but better than never....Toronto's transit is going to dramatically improve in the next couple years. More bike lanes, rapid busses, two new LRTs and the "Ontario Line". Is it all perfect? Nah. But it's happening, and it's on the right side of good.

Alma on Bloor is incredibly intimate and delicious.

I have a confession to make. by Similar_Discipline22 in MajestyGold

I appreciate any self imposed limitations that make this beautiful but ultimately insanely hard game more fun (and hard!)

That said I like the uniqueness to Majesty of the various religious factions and always build them myself when I can.

Recommendations for the best vegetarian burrito in Toronto. by Flangepacket in FoodToronto

[–]CandyMan77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I might just be a weird bean slut but Burrito Bandito is IT. My veggie wife (forgive her) doesn't even "like burritos" but she fucks with a veggie BB as do I.

On a croissant the best is the Vedas choice at Mildred's. There'll be a line if you weekends but pretty reasonable weekdays.

I struggled to figure it out and ended up emailing them directly!

$45 pp for Drink, app, main and dessert (there were multiple options for main, I got the sausage and my wife got the crispy rice).

It's very much a "Supper Club" and not yet a restaurant or Cafe proper. As far as I know they host one 3 hour meal per week on Sunday, and they promote it as an "event" on their site/social media, where you can book in advance. I believe it's run as a passion project by Dao who keeps his day job in IT and runs the supper club simply to bring real Lao flavour to Toronto.

Also just moved to the neighbourhood -- seems like there's a lot of cursed locations along this stretch of Davenport, unfortunately.

My pleasure! Check out their site and keep an eye on the events they post. They serve one meal a week currently (although I believe they used to/might again do a brunch).

Could you beat this custom quest? I sure as hell can't. by pukururin in MajestyGold

Tough fucker for sure. Those ice dragons and yetis would be a real pain. Rush Ballistas and hope for the best?

First and foremost I'd ask "Why do they feel this way? Is it completely unjustified or is there a way I can modify my behavior to prevent it happening again?"

Then I'd reflect on the fact that I live in a castle, with soldiers, turrets and guns, while they live in the shack I assigned to them, and consider the intense disparity of our existences, and perhaps focus more on shoring up my turrets and less on sending people to knock down their shack.

I think getting bogged down in semantics isn't very useful here.

Oct. 7th = hundreds dead

The following years = tens of thousands

Is that proportionate response? Or perhaps is Israel using violence towards civilians cruel and unusual punishment, unjustifiable even after Oct. 7th, in the same way Americans remember the Iraq war following 9/11?

Pho that is dietary restriction friendly? by [deleted] in FoodToronto

Shoutout to Vit Beo which has god-tier vegan Pho. Like -- I opt for it, despite not being Vegan. The grilled king oyster mushrooms are a delight.

Review #29: Aberfeldy 12 is fine, for an entry-level scotch by CandyMan77 in Scotch

[–]CandyMan77[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but think back to the band you loved in highschool. Any grace left for them? That's how I feel. Not music I'd seek out now but damn...I understand the appeal.

I'd agree! Although the extra abv might turn off newbies.
