almost nothing of what I would want to. Scratched the surface, but not the real itch. Got to a food market, the St Lawrence, but then discovered that there is another one, the Kensington, which would be near the spice shops someone told me about. Found a Lebanese restaurant, Tabule, but also learned that TO is not a destination for Middle Eastern food (as I had assumed from my good experiences in Ottawa and Montreal) and I just lucked out with finding Tabule. Learned the PATH like a good rat, but also walked to work at street level on the last day just to savour -20C again (or rather to revel in the idea that I don't have to do it regularly). OK I was supposed to be working, not catching up on my shameful lack of knowledge about the centre of the Canadian universe, and no-one can fault me for not trying. AGO: did go; ROM: sadly no. Felt queasy on the glass floor in the CN Tower, strangely more so when moving (shuffling) than standing still. I'm sure I could get used to it, but why would I want to?
Having had the tasting menu, I want to go back to for some serious exploring. Trips like these are like the punishment of Tantalus, knowing it's out there within reaching distance, and not being able to do it.
