Toronto Festivals & Events for Next Week (Mar 3 - Mar 9)

Hello Torontonians,

If you are looking for nice food, go for a nice walk between ROM and the end of Christie / Korean Town. You will find all the best food around the world. For some reason we went there for more than 5 times in the past few months. We had awesome sushi, comfy french onion soup, traditional laksa (Best one in Toronto). If you want the names, just reply to this email and we can shoot you some, don’t wanna do too much promotion :D

My fav Laksa :D

Anyway, checkout what you can do next Monday (3/3) to Sunday (3/9) below! Hope you have a great weekend❣️ Missed out? Catch up with our previous newsletter here.
