8 h. ago Controversial Ontario Place spa cut down to half its size in new design

With Ontario Place bulldozed to the point of being completely unrecognizable and Therme Group in the midst of finalizing designs for the megaspa coming to the property, it seems that we're all going to have to accept that the redevelopment of the park as planned is inevitable at this point, whether we like it or not.Therme has had to make multiple substantial revisions to its proposal in the last few years in response to public backlash, attempting to sway locals' negative feelings about the sprawling private campus that will take over much of the disused waterfront theme park-turned-green space.In the most recent blueprints, which were released on Tuesday and appear to be AI-generated, the facility's still-extremely imposing footprint has been shrunk down, sitting at 33,000 metres (from 65,000 in earlier iterations).A total of ten pools with 20 water slides, nine steam rooms, 14 saunas, and other...

A longstanding barbecue restaurant in Toronto has closed after 15 years, and a new business is already set to move in.It's official: 2025 has seen Leslieville's food scene enter a state of complete flux. While beloved institutions like Ascari Enoteca, Greta Solomon's and Samaira's Kitchen — not to mention the century-old Reliable Fish & Chips in late 2024 — have gracefully bowed out of the neighbourhood, a flurry of new eateries have opened up shop.While Ascari and Samaira's usurpers have yet to make themselves known, the old Greta Solomon space is now home to Bar Mini, a chic snack and cocktail bar appealing to the neighbourhood's burgeoning young-and-hip population, and Reliable Fish & Chips has been replaced by a sister location of Dovercourt Village staple Masa Deli.All of this is to say that, as painful as the loss of longstanding local staples can be, with the businesses that have recently moved in, Leslieville just so happens to be ...

5 d. ago Shuttered Toronto Mexican spot reopens in new location with beer garden

A Toronto restaurant from one of the city’s most well-regarded chefs has just been replaced with a new Mexican restaurant and beer garden.It was the closure heard around the city when renowned Toronto chef, Anthony Rose, decided to close the doors on Fet Zun, the quasi-sister location to Toronto's much-loved Fat Pasha.Okay, maybe it wasn't quite that big of a deal, but it still came as a shock to the scores of Annex locals who frequented the restaurant.Boasting a massive indoor footprint, as well as ample backyard space (which housed Madame Boeuf and Flea, its burger pop-up) and a spacious front patio, the restaurant, despite being open year-round, was particularly a summertime staple.Lingering dormant since Fet Zun's closure in December of 2024, the question loomed large as to what would replace it for months. What could possibly be worthy of the prized piece of Dupont real estate?Now, we finally have an answer.As of June 27, Fet Zun's old locat...
