    It was a friend's sister's birthday, so I went to a curling party…read more Yessir, that is the most Canadian sentence I've written in a while, which is apt because it was the most Canadian thing I've done... ever. Since it was a birthday party, I don't know what it costs to rent out all of the ice (or the sheets, as they call it), but if drinking and throwing stones down ice sounds like your kind of thing, I'm certain it's worth it. The bar was a bit pricier than I was anticipating. I was picturing more like a legion-style situation, with twoonie beers and no mix, but they actually have a proper wooden bar that takes debit and serves up $20 pitchers. Not as fun as what I was picturing, but fair enough, it is in beautiful High Park after all. Sweep!

    Coming here really made me wish we had a club like this in Chicago... After all, we have the same…read moreweather as Toronto! My curling debut was pretty memorable, as I caught on relatively quickly to how the game works. The staff here gives an exhaustive explanation of the rules and makes it easy for novices to pick up the game. Great game, better company, made for a pretty amazing three hours on a Friday afternoon. We had unfettered access to the entire rink, which made for an exclusive experience. Solid beer selection behind the bar certainly doesn't hurt. Can't wait until next year's Malanka Curling Cup in January!

    Oooohhh la la! Very swanky, indeed…read more I am not a tennis player (or a player at any team [who am I kidding-anything physical] at all) however, my sister is a huge tennis player and an active member at Queens. She also throws a big Christmas party there every year. I must say, having had zero idea what to expect, what a beautiful spot. And I can see why she loves going there for tennis, as well. For a party location, I imagine it's not cheap to rent, but it is brilliant because the children are free to roam around and toss tennis balls at one another and go bananas on the court, which is excellent for their parents who don't want to have to entertain them. Meanwhile, the older kids (meaning the adults) get to mingle and get a lil tipsy upstairs in the swanky restaurant, bar, mingling area and overlook their kiddos playing through the enormous glass window/walls. There is a restaurant area, as well as a bar area, where I played bartender for the night. There was no sink which was difficult, but it was still fun. Perhaps I am biased because I've never been allowed to play bartender at people's parties so this was a first and I loved it, but regardless, I can also see why big sis likes this joint as a tennis player. After sweating your addidas-clad buns off, you can meander upstairs with your fancy pals and have drinks RIGHT THERE without having to get your coat on and go out and find another place. All the while feeling quite lahdeehdah with a big framed picture of her majesty elizabeth hanging above a fireplace when she was still young and pretty to look at, staring at you as you schmooze with fellow club-mates. Best of all it's literally 2 blocks from our house. I enjoyed it as a party venue, especially for the children, and I can imagine, if one can afford the insane membership cost, enjoying it immensely as a member, as well.

    The Badminton and Racquet Club is located just west of St. Clair Station. Frankly, if someone…read morehadn't led me directly to the doors of the BRC, I would have had NO idea it was even there. I don't play Badminton, Racquetball or Tennis so it's clear that I'm not a member, but we came here for our work christmas dinner. The Club itself is fairly large, given that its smack dab in the middle of the city. However, as we went through a tour of the facilities and the building itself, its very clear that the building is old and disjointed and lacks proper flow from one area to another. The courts seemed to be in quite good condition though and you could tell this was an upscale type of club. The area where we had our lunch was quite nicely refinished and looked very crisp. We were seated in a room with a large round table for lunch. There was a set Christmas menu with choice for the main: squash and apple soup, a choice of Turkey Dinner, Salmon or Vegetarian and Christmas "pudding" for dessert. The food was quite good, I very much enjoyed the soup, a nice hearty appetizer for a cold day. The Turkey dinner was great, stuffing, vegetables, turkey, cranberry sauce and potatoes. The Christmas "pudding" was a bit odd, more like a cake with a small scoop of ice cream, but still good. Overall, it was a good experience for a staff luncheon but I dont' think I would recommend this venue for anything other than a relatively casual lunch (provided you know someone who's a member) as the facilities just don't seem to be able to handle much beyond that.

    Though I've never been here to play Badminton...or any racquet related sport honestly, I have been…read morein their event spaces . The Badminton & Racquet Club is nothing special on the venue front. Yes, they can host weddings (or in the event I went to, a funeral - yay), but really in the city you could do much better. Their space is nice, through slightly dated, probably due to an older demographic who frequents the club (I assume!). It seems to me that they are going for a "classic" look, but the result is more of a "dated" look - it reminds me a lot of the Faculty Club at the University of Toronto - in fact I wouldn't be surprised if these clubs were somehow linked. In terms of food, they do make a mean cheese platter - at their finger sandwiches are definitely tasty. Also, the bartenders are heavy handed on the alcohol - which may have not been the most appropriate at the event I was attending - but you know. The bartenders themselves were quite friendly and one in particular makes quite a delicious caesar! The only part of the club that does not need an update, in my opinion, are the washrooms. I am a sucker for venue-branded one time use towels (I know, I'm a tree killer) and soaps and lotions, apparently. Overall as a venue, this place is ok, but nothing special. In a city of hundreds on venues, you could definitely do a lot better (but also a lot worse) than the Badminton & Racquet Club.
