Life of Fife (6.4 km)
Tue, Oct 6, 10:15 PMThe Bridle Path is famous for being the richest address in Toronto. Most people don't realize that the neighbourhood just to the north is equally affluent. Fife Road and Fifeshire Road are lined with swanky mansions, one of which was featured in a highly successful Canadian comedy. This hike is an opportunity to gawk at luxury homes before we exit into the lush foliage of Windfields Park. The park is also home to the bucolic Canadian Film Centre. Unfortunately, rich neighbourhoods don't have good restaurants. There's only one decent one, a Cantonese restaurant, where we can have dinner. **Highlights** 1. York Mills Arena (depart 6:15 pm) 2. Mansions of Fifeshire Rd 3. St. Andrews Park 4. York Mills and Bayview Ave (depart 6:55 pm) 5. Canadian Film Centre 6. Windfields Park 7. Banbury Community Centre (depart 7:30 pm) 8. Pearl Chinese Cuisine (arrive 7:55 pm) **Neighbourhoods** St Andrews > Windfields **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1LX-fTnFET4MwGjl5zzE6CG1epvLdcTM&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1LX-fTnFET4MwGjl5zzE6CG1epvLdcTM&usp=sharing) **How it works** Hike starts punctually. Late or can't do the whole route? Meet us at scheduled checkpoints. See our [home page](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/) for more info.

Bloor Street, Toronto. All of it. (19.6 km)
Sat, Nov 14, 5:30 PM**Attendance policy is enforced for this hike**. See below for details. Back by popular demand, we're doing a mega hike along Bloor Street in Toronto. We'll trace the entire Bloor subway line and beyond. See how the landscape densifies from golf courses to strip malls to parks to gentrified neighbourhoods as we approach the Don Valley. The restaurants along the way highlight the cultural diversity of Toronto from 5 continents. You need to be in decent shape and have a voracious appetite to do the entire route. However, as with other hikes, you are free to join and leave at any point. Those who complete the entire route will be eligible to buy a commemorative T-shirt (expected price \~$23). There are several restaurants to choose from at the end of the hike: Japanese ramen, Mexican tortas, Egyptian koshari, and Brazilian steaks. Further on at Chester station are even more options: Iranian, Indonesian, and Greek grilled meats. We're not making reservations, so find a group of like-minded people and grab a table.
