View Full Version : The Vice Guide To Toronto softee July 11th, 2005, 09:20 PM Check it out. http://www.viceland.com/issues/guide_to/htdocs Rockefeller July 11th, 2005, 11:37 PM Cool, Thanks! KGB July 12th, 2005, 01:37 AM Not very factual, but at least it's slightly funny. But how seriously can you take an organization that tries to pretend it's got the inside tips on what's cool, when they call themselve's "Vibe"? Cringe. Some of my favorite reviews..... MARKHAM AKA Markham Markham is almost 100% Chinese. After graduating computer science with perfect grades, students flock to high tech employment in Markham because if you have absolutely no social skills you won’t notice that you are working and living in a completely barren hell-hole. The Green Room (296 Brunswick Ave., but not really) Some say it’s the Korean Mafia, some say it’s the Vietnamese Mafia, we say who cares as long as it’s a good time. What does concern us is the rumour that they defrost chickens on the kitchen floor. On second thought, fuck it! Cheap eats, good times, opium! Sweaty Betty’s (13 Ossington St.) A little hole-in-the-wall that serves imported absinthe, sake martinis, and Cheez Whiz on toast. Get falling-down drunk and then wander over to a Vietnamese “karaoke bar” and puke on one of their couches. That goes over really well. They love that. KGB marathon July 12th, 2005, 01:43 AM LOL DrJoe July 12th, 2005, 01:52 AM ^^ Its actually called Vice, no?? KGB July 12th, 2005, 01:57 AM Yea...whatever...either would be equally contrived. They've moved to my neighbourhood...I haven't figured out if that is good or bad. KGB DrJoe July 12th, 2005, 02:11 AM apparantely the used to be 3 drug addicts for Montreal. addisonwesley July 12th, 2005, 03:52 AM Ahaha, what a crazy magazine, my friend's buy it. Have you been to the Vice-like store on Queen West? It's pretty cool but I wouldn't imagine buying anything there. JARdan July 12th, 2005, 04:45 AM haha, they don't like us 905'ers. This is hilarious: "MARCONI’S PIZZA (Cawthra and Burnhamthorpe): The Italian guy that runs this joint is one moody motherfucker. Maybe he can’t smile because he is channeling all of his available energy into making the perfect pepperoni pizza." Westcoast604 July 12th, 2005, 04:57 AM RICHMOND STREET (CLUBLAND) This ‘hood is to be avoided at all costs: mega-clubs with names like Privilege, laser beams in the street and 905ers looking to get laid… truly odious. ha! priceless. Sounds a lot like Granville St. Replace 905'ers with people from Surrey. SD July 12th, 2005, 07:47 AM They forgot to mention the incredibly slow service at Green Room. Great atmosphere though. rt_0891 July 13th, 2005, 02:16 AM RICHMOND STREET (CLUBLAND) This ‘hood is to be avoided at all costs: mega-clubs with names like Privilege, laser beams in the street and 905ers looking to get laid… truly odious. :hahaha: :hahaha: KGB July 13th, 2005, 03:47 AM Ah ha...so they are the ones who nabbed that spot that had been for rent for a while. They aren't open yet...paper still covering the big windows. Great space in a great building....in a fast gentrifying stretch of Parkdale's "Queen Far West". KGB |
