I think I've street passed him 3 times so far. 1st I saw him at the PS event, the other 2 were random.

Right right. The one near the futureshop/best buy area north of donlands station.
You guys should try Mikado near there some day. Not as good as Taro's fish, but damn!
Johnny Jackson, College and Clinton, 8PM-3:30AM Friday&Saturday (closed during the week). All dishes are 10 bucks (tax incl).
Unf, looks fucking awesome.

It has to have been extremely bad. Someone shit in the train?
I just had a deja vu. I could have sworn you posted this before.
Definitely did not previously. I only a few weeks ago discovered the amazingness of mobile gaf.

Holy shit. That looks amazing. I love how it has a nice variety of dishes instead of having just one of those things which seems to be the trend these days.
Closed during the week? WTF?
Yep right there. Mikado is on the west side of Laird right? It's very good. Ever try the fish and chips on the same side near there on the corner called "Olde York"?
Man is it ever amazing and I'm not even a fish and chips guy.
Probably asked a million times but what's the best burger place in Toronto? I know there's the list in the OP but are they the best? My friend and I are looking to go find the best place in Toronto probably some time next week and the only good burger places I know are Five Guys, Johnny's, and I guess Burger Priest >__>
East end BQM is pretty good, I definitely prefer it over Priest and they're in the same neighbourhood. I'm not sure it's anything amazing though. Yellow Griffin on the west end is hit, or miss (I guess whoever they have in the kitchen? Can be amazing, or terrible), but they offer a lot of variety with their burgers.
Unf, looks fucking awesome.
I know where I'm going next week!

heh, good to have you back 'cube'.
Yeah, Mikado rocks. Every time I go there, I am tempted to try Olde York since there's ALWAYS a goddamn line up for it.
How is it compared to Reliable?
edit: UGH! EM, that place is so freakin terrible. I'd rather go to Five Guys than that place. Aside from being dry, it just tasted....off...
My mom is a volunteer captain this year, so she got alot of tickets this year. I'm seeing Cloud Atlas next weekend with the wife. Can't wait.
We rarely go, but I've been there a dozen times and never had a bad experience. Their place at Queen and Spadina has always let be down though. Maybe they're trying to become more like that. ;_;
Will have to try again one of these days. What about the Ossington location? I've never been.

Umm... it's been a while, but you can get down there via Riverdale park pretty easily. I don't know if there's an access point near Danforth though.

may go again just to see how much bad taste you have. I've only been there twice. SEVERELY disappointed both times.
Hmmm, I guess I'll have to explore.

I usually go when it rains part of the day and walk on to any ride I want. Riding Leviathan 3 times in a row non-stop was amazing!

No toronto pic for today? I was hoping for a new one.
Whats best for street level photos?You guys should really just bookmark Skyscrapercity and Urban Toronto.
Skyscraper does have some, but generally more people post street level photos on Urban. My Toronto is a really good thread by one photographer, Urban Wilderness for photos of green space and nature in the city. Then & Now is really interesting comparison photography of old and new photos; I could spend ages reading it. And there's a generic photo posting thread of various quality.
Represent.

BART seats, please.
We'll also be greeted with these face to face seats in the streetcars too.
Ended up going to Glory Hole Doughnuts today. 'gourmet doughnuts' if you will. Overall a pretty so-so experience. Coffee was surprisingly good and the dough in the doughnuts was amazing, but I wasn't wow'ed by any of the toppings.. and the maple doughnut was probably my favourite. It might all be okay if the doughnuts didn't cost $4-8 bucks each.

No one noticed but I only do it on weekdays. Like EvilMario said, I get them all from Skyscrapercity and UrbanToronto so you could just look there (I will keep posting one a day that I like here though, it's fun)
Those BART seats would get dirty and ruined really fast. The TTC already replaces/repairs something like 20,000 seats a year.

You may be on to something there. All the lines of the entire BART system have approximately half the average ridership of just our Yonge-University Line so it would have much less wear and tear on it. I don't actually mind the seats anyways. The TTC has much worse problems (mostly we need more transit of any type everywhere)
Toronto weird collage of the day:
Indeed, and they retain a musty smell. Not that TTC seats on the streetcars, or subways are void of stains, or smells either though. I wonder how often they replace the fabric sections of the seats?
What's the opinion on these older model subway car seats? They always seemed pretty comfortable to me. But of course they probably tear and crack easily.

They are ok. Comfortable enough. I noticed they got extremely dirty on the sides though where they dip down.
I could've sworn they mentioned it in the Karen Stintz/TTC episode of Undercover Boss Canada but I'm too lazy to look it up.

It's nearly impossible to destroy the TTC seats.
Also, homeless people. If the seats are too comfy, they'll ride back and forth all day. (Or so i heard.)
Maybe it would be more of a problem, but plenty already setup camp in the back of the streetcars.. or in the wide open space near the backdoors. One common guy on the 501 route usually comes on with a dozen full grocery bags of cans / bottles and sits down right on the floor, taking up all walking space.
