If you're looking to spend some money on great dinner without going all-out there's a bunch of good places;
http://www.messis.ca/main.html (ignore their evil website, the food rocks.). About 150 for two people.
Lahore Tikka House in Little India for the best Pakistani food this side of Lahore, http://www.lahoretikkahouse.com/… (evil website amazing food). Maybe 40 bucks for two.
http://www.restaurantica.com/on/… Gio Rana's. Former owner/chef of the Nose. Very good. About 180 for two.
Those are some of my faves. A little off the beaten track.
- Gio's is insanely good...
  – exador11/2
  wow expensive...sorry i'm a cheap tourist lol. but the 40 dollar one is acceptable– pango2/2

Parkdale is where it's at, crack, smack and Mother India Roti's!
Wrongbar, Cadillac Lounge (To see the Rockabilly dudes), The Drake Patio (Kinda shit thanks to suburban cunts, but alright, 29-AUG-08 WINDSOR FOR THE DERBY DRAKE HOTEL 19+ $8.50, also), and Sweaty Betty's for the bar scene. The rest is shit.
Kensington Market is a good time on a Saturday walk, lot's of freaks in there, but a complete mix none the less. Then there's the norm of The ROM, AGO, DESIGN XCHGE, OCAD and galleries around Queen and Ossington.
- + Gladstone Hotel.
  + Bacchus Roti
  + Easy Breakfast– pylon1/4
  Agreed, wasn't sure if anything was going on at the Gladdy.– Andrew_D2/4
  The Rhino :)
  Cosmic cow cafe (used to live upstairs above the rug store back in the day– exador13/4
  I like the Cow. Not loving the Rhino as much as I used to though...– pylon4/4
