It would. The other location on our list is England, which is also expensive. We'll see how it pads out. _________________

Why don't you just split the difference? Go to Nova Scotia and dig potatoes, sounds like fun, eh?

Go there during the cooler months. Lucifer himself would probably avoid going there during the summer.

I don't think Wynter lives far from the Toronto metro area...she might be able to give you some suggestions.

You definitely have to check out the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum). It's been ranked as one of the most interesting structures in the world. They finished construction on the facade just last year.
And of course you need to go up the CN Tower, which still remains the highest freestanding building in the world.
In terms of restaurants, there are thousands. Where exactly in TO are you going? Downtown? North York? I can give you recommendations based on where in TO you'll be. _________________

To be honest, this was the only thing I knew was in Toronto. I'll definitely head to the top with my camera in tow.

I'll be staying in the downtown area. I'm not sure what kind of food I want.
Are you near Toronto? And is tabana also in that part of Canada??

I think Tabana is in Hamilton... I'm not sure. I'm in Brampton. It's about 45min to an hour from Downtown TO. Downtown TO has some AMAZING restaurants. I can basically give you street names and you'll find hundreds of them. And there's every ethnicity there, as well. In Chinatown they have the country's best dumpling restaurant. _________________

Hmm, I'll let you know once I figure it out. I think I plan to rent a car so it doesn't have to be within walking distance of downtown.

There's no point renting a car in Downtown TO. It's much easier getting around on foot or by street car. _________________

One of my favourite restaurants in Downtown TO is called East. It's Asian cuisine with modern twists. Upscale decor, but with reasonable prices. It's located on Queen Street. There are A LOT of restaurants on this street, so it's a good spot to hangout around dinner time.
Sweet Lulu is another Asian restaurant on the same street.
Dundas Street and Spadina Avenue are also streets with really good restaurants, like the Red Room Cafe and Chinese restaurants.
You can check out this site: http://toronto.foodontario.com/restaurants.php
It's restaurants in TO broken down by Cuisine. I enjoy Bar food places, but again, it's up to your own taste.  _________________
