Best part of town hasn't been touched yet; my stomping grounds.

Just south east of king station is The Distillery District. Tons of great eats/shops (mostly look and not buy; it's pricey) and sports The Young Centre for Performing Arts (my school; soulpepper is there and does great stuff), Cafe Uno, Balzacs (my favorite coffee shop in Toronto), and, most importantly, Mill St. Brewery. Mill St. is a great microbrewery with a great selection and wonderful British pub fare eats.

Amsterdam is kind of shitty brew if you ask me so I'd hit Mill St. before I went there.

Aside from that:

- Astoria: great greek food, kind of "well known" so it's not some hipster place (hipster places are where you'd find people like... well, me)
- Queen and King West.
- The Danforth
- Little Italy (Ossington and College): a few really great genuine italian restaurants and The Revival Bar (great night spot)

In Toronto, like most grid cities, it's about finding an area and walking the streets and exploring. New York and Toronto are best experienced when you just go for a stroll.
