When I was a kid I remember going to Fairview Mall. Back then you had Sears and Hudsons Bay as…read moreflagship stores. Now in 2025, both big box stores are no longer in business. Fairview Mall has gone through an evolution and reimagination of the retail space. I love how they redeveloped the space where Sears used to be. The space is now converted into a mini Chinatown spot with Saint Germain bakery, bubble tea shop, Hong Kong style cafe, Thai restaurant, and a T&T Supermarket. On the top floor there's a Marshalls / Homesense big box store. I noticed the Zara store has been renovated and now occupying 2 levels. The store looks immaculate and love the modern layout and self serve checkout kiosks to make shopping faster for DIY people. I managed to do some shopping at H&M and got some great deals in the sale section. I also bought some groceries like green beans, lychee, bbq pork buns, and curry beef pastries. It's not very often you can go to regional mall and be able to buy clothes, groceries, and bakery goods. It was a pleasant experience. I look forward to the transformation of the vacant Hudson Bay space. Oh did I mention they have a Playdium arcade in the old Sportchek space beside the Cineplex theatre.

They also have the bubble teas and coffee shops. Lots of selections here to enjoy. There's not much really to say about it. It's kept fairly clean and it's easy to find. The signage is huge so you can see at a glance where all your stops are at the plaza. I just hate the parking. The parking on the non-Longo's side is fine, but the parking on the Longo's side is one way. But thanks to the location of the stop sign, sometimes, it takes forever to get OUT of the parking aisle. And then there's people who go the wrong way because they can't see the giant painted signs. It's such a frustrating nightmare sometimes.

Pariwar Hut is an offshoot of Pariwar Restaurant on Lawrence. I've heard the specialty is biryani. I'm looking forward to trying it. The man running the stall is very friendly. Rose Kebab needs more love. Rose is a one-man operation and she makes reasonably priced food with really big portions. My go-to is the Koobideh kebab, although I also enjoy the lamb shank. She's got quite a few vegetarian options too! Grandone opened during the pandemic and ran a 50% off sale for a very long time. They've got a Fantuan promo going on right now. Buy $15 and get $13 off? If you don't have Fantuan (delivery app), go to the link in my profile and get a newcomers coupon pack, then go to Grandone's Fantuan profile and get your Grandone coupon. Fried chicken is pretty good. I like it spicy. I'm not sure if they've changed it now but the shrimp sandwich brought back memories of trips to Asia. Yummy BBQ makes lunch sets that are bang for buck! Their Yummy special is enough food for 2-3 people and all their BBQ meats are super juicy and delicious. Other things I really enjoy are their pork bone soup, their seafood pancake, and their zucchini in egg batter. Wooffles, obviously, is a fan favorite. If you don't know why, go check our their Yelp page.

I recently returned to check this plaza out. On Saturday, I was here to take in a movie at Cineplex Odeon. It pretty much anchors the open plaza of huge box stores. It's a decent place to take in a movie. There is lots of parking and the seats are comfy. There are a handful of eateries parallel and closest to Lebovic Avenue. The Real Greek, East Side Mario's, and Minerva Tiffins were doing decent business when my movie was over at around 3:30 pm. There used to be a diner called Nickels in this row of eateries. It was owned by Celine Dion. My friend and I loved eating here. It threw you back to milkshakes, sandwiches, burgers, and Montreal-style smoked meats from the 50's or 60's. It was good eats and fairly cheap. It still sits vacant as this silver-looking bullet. It's a shame. Some businesses have stood the test of time. Old Navy, Wendy's, Roots, CIBC, and Dollarama are some of them. It was nice to see that they are still kicking around. There are some newer additions that look promising. Seafood City Supermarket and Healthy Planet are huge size-wise. I'll need to check them out when I return. It's a nice plaza where you can get almost everything. It does need a drugstore, though. Maybe one will pop up down the road. (173)

My parents and I would pass by it whenever we were driving along Victoria Park Avenue. We'd stop by this mall primarily for two stores: - Miracle Food Mart - Kmart Our usual Miracle Food Mart was Gerrard Square. This one was our second usual Miracle. The special part about this grocery store, which is now Metro, is the domed roof. It has always been that way and is considered a heritage property. When my parents and I moved from Toronto to Markham (my first stint), we shifted from a one-bedroom apartment to a house. We needed a better vacuum. My parents had a Hoover upright. There was a sale at Kmart for a more powerful Hoover with hose attachments. We came to this mall to get it. It lasted a good couple of decades. I figure that I got my brand loyalty from my parents. I am that way with products that work for decades, such as Sony and Samsonite. Kmart is no more. It probably explains one reason why we stopped frequenting this mall. The other was that it was dumpy back then. Roughly a decade ago, I spent a lot of time at the McDonald's drive-thru that is detached physically from the mall, but is still a part of it. It is steps away from Ellesmere Road. I used to work at Yonge and Eglinton. When I'd drive along York Mills-Ellesmere heading eastbound and felt like grabbing a bite to eat for dinner after work, I'd come here. I never had any issues with my order. It's funny that I have yet to go inside the restaurant. I was recently at Parkway Mall to grab some bubble tea at CoCo. There was plenty of parking. I loved the CoCo store. It is a great addition to the mall. There's also Gabby's across from it. I used to like the wings there and hope that they are still yummy. I hope to drop by one of these days. I haven't walked the entire mall because I still don't feel comfortable browsing in a large space during a pandemic. I will say that this mall satisfies your needs for most things. Groceries. A food court. Restaurants. School and office supplies. Cell phones and providers. Drug store. Dental and health services. I'd say that Dollarama, Metro, and Dollarama anchor this mall. I parked in front of Dollarama. I wanted to go into this store, but I had an order to pick up elsewhere. Next time! I hope to spend more time taking a closer look at what the mall has to offer. From my brief visit a couple of Saturdays ago, it is definitely less dumpy than I recall it to be. (77)

On my most recent visit to Toronto, my family and I visited the Bayview Village and had dinner at a restaurant where we made a reservation in advance. There's something for everyone and plenty to see and do, and I appreciate the renovations that have been done over the years. Bayview Village is known for some great restaurants and shops. In fact, there are many different options from upscale and casual restaurants to coffee and grocery stores. My favorites include Italian food at Il Fornello to shopping at Lindt and LCBO to casual like Aroma. You can find all 19 options at https://bayviewvillage.ca/shop/dine. There are also plenty of shops from upscale shops to more casual ones. You can find all 47 retail options at https://bayviewvillage.ca/shop/retail. Find exclusive offers from stores at https://bayviewvillage.ca/whats-on/?promotions. There are also fifteen different wellness options from dentists, hairstylists, spas, drug stores, and more (https://bayviewvillage.ca/shop/wellness) and thirteen different services from tailoring to financial planning to travel services, and more (https://bayviewvillage.ca/shop/services) There are also special events that take place (https://bayviewvillage.ca/whats-on/?events) at Bayview Village. While stores and restaurant hours may vary, the hours are typically weekdays from 10 AM to 8 PM, Saturday from 10 AM to 6 PM, and Sunday from 12 Noon to 5 PM. There is plenty of free parking around the entire mall. You can read more about the Bayview Village at https://bayviewvillage.ca including a place you can sign up to be "in the know."
