This year when we’re drinking your home brew for Thanksgiving…
What? You’re not making beer or wine for Thanksgiving? You don’t have a home brew that you make special for Thanksgiving?
Well, how weird is that?
It must not be a tradition everyone shares. But, see if you can relate to any of these:
- Sitting on the couch and eating Thanksgiving while watching football.
- Same thing…sitting on the recliner with a food tray.
- Saying, “It’s not worth it. We’re going to a restaurant.”
- I ordered Pizza and Wings one year…
That was the year I had just finished my home bar and I made my first home brew for our New Happy Thanksgiving Tradition.
I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving and enjoys their own traditions, whatever they may be!
There is a restaurant for every taste and every pocketbook in Toronto. This is a city that offers cuisine from just about any nationality including Chinese and other Asian cuisine, Italian, Greek and local entrees. You can find Toronto Restaurants that offer elegant dining, places that serve western style steak and fast food burger establishments that give a choice of cuisine and price. If you enjoy food, then Toronto is the place to be.
One of the most elegant and visible restaurants sits a top the CN tower and revolves a full 360 degrees with floor to ceiling windows for a full view of the city of Toronto. The name is, appropriately, the Restaurant 360 and it offers a moderate menu along with a choice of over 550 different types of wines from all over the world. This restaurant has won awards for the food but has won more for the novelty of being 114 stories above ground level. Reservations are advised and meals will cost about C$70 to C$100 and wines can go upward to over C$1000 per bottle.
Two other fine restaurants that will cost you upwards to C$100 for a meal are Splendito and Truffles. At Splendito in the Distillery District seasonal ingredients are used to make great tasting and unique Mediterranean cuisine. The great thing about this restaurant is that you can choose from an a la carte menu or go to the tasting menu where you only get a little bit of everything you want. This restaurant has a great wine list as well. Truffles is located in the Four Seasons’ Hotel and is an award winning restaurant. Everything is quite elegant and very extreme in French style.
Should these restaurants be too rich for your blood try some other less inexpensive where meals cost C$35 up to C$75 and the food is still great. Go to Canoe Restaurant and Bar to sample some of the best Canadian cuisine around where they use maple sugar to make their tempting entrees. They also use local produce and offer wild game as well. Look to Toronto Harbor and you will find this place that looks like it came out of the forest in style. Always have reservations before you go and don’t go on weekends because it won’t be open.
Want something quirky and Bohemian in style then go to Lolita’s Lust in Greektown. Not only is the ambiance different so are the menu offerings including some unique meat and seafood dishes.
Budget restaurants in Toronto will give you great food at a great price. Fran’s in the Midtown area is a down to earth place that gives you food at a great price and a lot of it. Meatloaf is supreme here along with chicken wraps and tuna melts. It is open 24 hours and serves a huge breakfast platter at all times.
Another cheaper place is Fresh on Bloor located on Bloor street where you can find healthy menu items from vegetarian to organic. The food is great and it also offers 40 sublime to the ridiculous juices that would rival any expensive restaurants wine list.
For those who are budgeting, remember to factor in taxes. There are taxes that come along with the food in Toronto restaurants including the 8% provincial sales tax and the 10% alcohol tax. Also watch for the 5% federal goods and services tax that will all come at the end of the meal with the bill. In Toronto you can find any cuisine for any price. The above eateries are but just a few in this city of great cuisine so pick well and find the ones you like the most.
See what the City of Toronto has to offer by dining at a Toronto restaurant this weekend. If you’re in Quebec, then a restaurant Montreal is a great idea for spending some quality time.
Email advertising is a tool that is highly undervalued and underused by internet retailers. It is a tool that can also be used by traditional retailers but hardly ever is. The main advantage with this form of marketing and advertising is that it is free.
It is also a medium that can put products and services straight in front of your potential customers. It can also be tailored to individual customers’ needs and also provide a direct link to a website that sells the products or services.
It has been proven that most customers do not buy a product or service upon the first contact with the seller. Indeed it can take on average 8-10 contacts before a customer buys. Given this, the retailer of goods and services that can maintain contact over a long period of time will be the retailer that is upper most in the customer’s mind at the point at which they are ready to buy. However, the trick is to keep in the customer’s mind without boring them.
Therefore the contacts that are made must be something of interest to the customer. For example, the wine packaging retailer www.Wine-Bag.co.uk who sells gift packaging for wine is offering a service by which customers can log onto the website and sign up for a series of gift wrapping tutorials.
These tutorials show how ribbons and bows sold by the retailer can be combined with boxes and bags, also sold by the retailer, to enhance gifts and turn otherwise bland products into an attractive gift using easy and quick gift wrapping techniques.
Not only is it essential that the email contact is something of interest but it is also important that there also be an element of the promotion that is also free. Because let’s face it, everybody loves a freebee! In the example described, the emails feature a link to a video that provides free knowledge about how to put together attractive, elegant, yet simple to implement gift packaging.
