Pool tables, dancing and drinking: Andy Poolhall


Andy Poolhall

I can't tell you how many times I've told myself "ok, we are not going to drink too much tonight" as I walk through one of my favorite lounges in Toronto, Andy PoolHall. I don't really remember how I stumbled upon this lively, hip little place near Bathurst and College - but we've had an on/off again love affair for a couple ...

The Old Spaghetti Factory!


Last night I went to the Old Spaghetti Factory located on the Esplanade. It was my second time there, and the food was amazing! My boyfriend accompanied me downtown since I had a meeting to go to, so as a special date we went to this restaurant. It's become one of his favourites since we first went a year ago when we had a free meal coupon.

The atmosphere is fun ...
