7 h. ago Customers furious over food prices at the newest Eataly in Toronto

Italian mega market Eataly officially opened the doors of its fourth Toronto location on Nov. 25 at the Eaton Centre, and the reviews are in.The much-anticipated marketplace in the mall features two dine-in restaurants — La Pizza & La Pasta and La Piazza — a grocery section for fresh foods, grab-and-go take-out counters, and a wine shop, Vino e Birra To-Go. It spans 25,000 square feet across two floors.So, what's the verdict?It seems a large number of Toronto residents are complaining about an overpriced experience at a time when many have succumbed to the effects of growing inflation in the city.A recent visitor took to Reddit to mention that "The takeout fresh pasta looked amazing until I realized the small box of raviolis was $25 or so."Another patron commented on an Instagram reel sharing similar sentiments. "No thanks. Overpriced food. You walk away feeling hungry."These comments align with another Instagrammer's concerns ab...

Can you believe a downtown Toronto house once sold for just $64,000?That's exactly what Gerry Gold paid for 6 Prospect St., a charming central Cabbagetown Victorian, back in 1978."I bought this house in 1978 and have been living here ever since," Gold told blogTO.  "Now that I'm in retirement, I'm planning to move to Delta Road Cottage," a renowned project he completed about 12 years ago with the help of Teeple Architects.The front entrance. For architecture fans, Teeple Architects' portfolio is mostly academic institutional projects and multi-family residential projects, but Delta Road Cottage shows the firm's genius with smaller-scaled projects, and if you haven't seen it, it's worth a Google.A stained glass transom and exposed brick walls add character to the main floor. Back on Prospect Street, the home itself is a treasure trove of classic character.The main floor of the house. Listing agent...

22 h. ago Toronto Raptors just ended LeBron James' most unbreakable NBA streak

If you were lucky enough to be in attendance for the Toronto Raptors game against the Los Angeles Lakers game on Thursday night, it turns out that you were witnessing NBA history.Not only was it potentially LeBron James’ last-ever game playing at Scotiabank Arena, but it was actually historic for another reason for the four-time NBA MVP and NBA’s all-time leading scorer.James was held to just eight points on the night, one of the rarest feats of his legendary career.The last time James didn’t score at least 10 points in a regular season game was nearly 19 years ago – against the Milwaukee Bucks on January 5, 2007.That’s a streak of 1,297 games in a row, 431 more than Michael Jordan’s mark of 866, which sits second in NBA history.But the streak ended for a pretty decent reason for the Lakers’ side of things – James wasn’t exactly having his best shooting night, and opted to pass the ball to teammate Rui Hachimura on an eventual bu...
