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...

On top of the agonizing, can't-eat, can't-sleep grief that comes with losing a beloved pet, trying to navigate the next steps only deepens the sorrow. A newly opened pet funeral home, the first in Toronto, hopes to guide owners through their final goodbyes.At 115 Berkley St. in Moss Park is where you can find Tails Farewell's newest location – second to the one they first opened in Markham back in September 2024. Co-owner Jason Lau tells blogTO that the Markham space only has one memorial room, which limits the number of families they can serve. Now, with their new downtown location, they have more rooms to accommodate more people planning pet funerals.So far, Lau says, Tails Farewell has supported more than 500 pet families, including a virtual memorial for a 2-year-old python and a funeral for an 80-year-old woman's bunny, who we're certain lived a hoppy life. "Our goal is to create a warm and peaceful environment so families, esp...

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...
