The Ten Spot on Queen West


I really hate the winter months, so isn't it nice to see that the days are getting longer? With spring and summer approaching and  sandal season is coming,  it's time to get feet back into shape. The winter weather tends to make hands, feet and skin really dry so indulge in a little pre-season pampering. Open for less than a year the 10 spot nail bar on ...

To Tide You Over Till September - Canada's Top 10


I didn't get to take advantage of the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival. I had moved to the city just weeks before, didn't have a ten-ticket or greater pass, and had not realized the enormity of the event until the top shows were sold out. Over the entire event I got to see one film - Tony Goldwyn & Paul Haggis' The Last Kiss - although attempts to ...

Karaoke on a Sunday Night, The Rivoli 334 Queen St. W.


Its among the most convenient downtown spots on a Sunday for an impromtu pint and a little liquid courage. If you conquer stage fright to sing your heart out, the rules are simple. Pick your tune either by artist or by title and pass it to the emcee, Carson Foster (he's the dude in the leather pants). If it's your first time, you are guaranteed your five minutes in the spotlight. "Kick Ass Karaoke" virgins are encouraged, and ...
