Lunch at Hawker (after Vegetarian trek for omnivores)
This is a companion event for [Vegetarian trek for omnivores](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/events/313774090). You don't have to do the hike to join this, but it's more rewarding if you do.
[Hawker](https://www.hawker.to/) is perhaps the most innovative vegan restaurant in Toronto. Drawing inspiration from one of the oldest vegetarian traditions, several of their dishes fuse Indian influences with modern sensibilities. Take their biryani, for example, spiked with smoked poblano and lavender. Other dishes reflect the global experiences of the chefs. It's fine dining standards with casual prices.
If there are many people on the waitlist and it's at least 5 days before the event, we may arrange another table.

🏙️🚶 OLD CABBAGETOWN, REGENT PARK & DISTILLERY DISTRICT WALK (9KM) 🚶🏙️
🏙️🚶 OLD CABBAGETOWN, REGENT PARK & DISTILLERY DISTRICT WALK (9KM) 🚶🏙️
Historic Streets, City Contrasts & A Distillery District Finish
Some walks show you just how many different versions of Toronto can exist within a few kilometres.
Join us for a social city walk through some of Toronto’s most layered and contrasting neighbourhoods — from the storybook streets of Cabbagetown, to the revitalized energy of Regent Park, ending in the iconic Distillery District.
Cabbagetown is known for having one of the largest collections of Victorian homes in North America — quiet, tree-lined streets that feel almost frozen in time.
From there, we’ll move into Regent Park, where old Toronto meets new in one of the city’s most significant redevelopments.
We’ll finish in the Distillery District, once home to the largest distillery in the world, now a vibrant pedestrian area full of brick buildings, art, and atmosphere.
This is not a formal historical tour.
It’s a social walk with light storytelling, good energy, and lots to take in along the way.
👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t)
\*\*\*
🚶♂️ What We’ll Do
We’ll meet outside the subway station and begin our walk into Cabbagetown, wandering through its charming residential streets before making our way toward Regent Park.
As we move through the neighbourhood, you’ll see the blend of old and new Toronto — community spaces, modern builds, and the evolution of the area.
From there, we’ll continue south toward the Distillery District, where the walk wraps up.
You’re free to explore, grab a drink, or head out whenever you like.
Please note: there will be some stairs along the route.
\*\*\*
🌦️ Weather & Expectations
This walk will happen in typical April weather — which means anything from sun to light rain.
As long as it’s not extreme conditions or heavy downpour, we’ll be going ahead.
Be prepared and dress accordingly.
Comfortable shoes are important, and layers are always a good idea.
Also — this is NOT a guided or formal historical tour. I’ll share context casually, but the focus is on being social and enjoying the walk.
\*\*\*

Survivalist Series: Introduction to Cold Exposure
**Please note the only way to register for this adventure is on [our website.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/intro-cold-exposure)**
**Learning how to embrace the cold and manage its risks is key to enjoying the Canadian outdoors all year ‘round.**
In this adventure, we will combine hiking in a rugged winter landscape with skill-building challenges, teaching you how to thrive in cold conditions. You will learn:
* How to dress and act to stay warm and healthy during outdoor activities in cold conditions
* The basics of preventing, recognizing, and responding to hypothermia and frostbite
* How to recognize hazardous ice and snow, and what to do in case of accidental immersion in frozen water
* Optionally (and weather/conditions permitting), you could take on the challenge of a real cold plunge in a frozen lake, with expert guidance and safety planning.
This course is led by Sarah, our amazing guide and medical doctor who has experience as a first responder in remote environments and expertise in simulation-based teaching of emergency skills.
**Interested in joining this year’s Epics? Completing this and other relevant courses will support your approval process for advanced adventures.**
**Included:** Essential cold-weather items to add to your personal first aid kit, including a hypothermia blanket and ‘Cold Card’.
**Who It’s For**: Anyone who wants to spend time outdoors with confidence in all four seasons! No previous first aid experience is required. For those with prior wilderness first aid training, or other healthcare experience, this workshop is an opportunity to gain valuable extra repetitions honing your skills in a realistic outdoor environment.
**About this series:** The Survivalist Series is an expert-led set of courses designed to develop applicable and life-saving skills in the outdoors. Keep your eyes peeled for more courses on many other topics as they become available.
**Due to limited parking at the course location, WU transport is strongly recommended. We cannot guarantee safe parking for your vehicle.**
**Highlights**
**Survivalist Skills Training:** Develop essential skills to survive and thrive in the wild.
**Expert Instructors:** Our amazing expert guides will teach you everything you need to know in a safe and fun way.
**Cold Exposure Kit Included:** Each participant will get a ‘cold card’ and an emergency blanket to add to their medical kits.
**Event cost: $90+HST - optional transport available.**

**About Wilderness Union**
Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people.
Members range from 20-40 years old. The group is a mix of GTA locals and newcomers to Toronto from within Canada and abroad.
Attendance numbers on Meetup don't reflect our actual event attendance - we typically have 15-20 community members at each event. Large enough that there's someone new to meet but small enough that it's not overwhelming!

Latin Fest at City Hall
Hi everyone.
Nathan Phillips Square is playing host to Canadian Latin Fest 2026 on Sunday, 12 April. Through music, food, dance and performance, it celebrates Canadian Latin culture, which I am sure we can all agree, is very vibrant in the city.
The event starts at noon with opening remarks and some dignitary speeches.
**MEET TIME:** 12:00 noon for our own opening remarks and intros. According to the schedule, the performances are (mostly) over by 3pm.
**MEETING SPOT:** in the covered area between Hero Burger and the skate rental shop.
**Note:** For those wanting to come a bit later, I will check back at the meeting spot after the first parade ( approx. 1 pm)
According to their schedule, the first of two parades steps off at 12:40pm. (The parades are new and I believe they will be quite short and take place within the square.)
Whatever your photo interests might be, I am sure there will be lots of ops, not only as part of the festival but also all around City Hall.
On a side note, I anticipate putting together meetups in the future, likely during the week when the days are longer, that will offer an element of instruction. The idea is to have willing experienced photographers lead small groups of beginners or those looking to improve their photography skills and/or knowledge of their DSLR or mirrorless.
For Sunday's meetup, I think everyone would want to shoot the parade(s)/performances on their own but if there are people interested/willing, they could team up for an hour of guided shooting at some point during the day. I put my name forward as someone who would be happy to lead a group.
We will have more discussion about the instructional meetups on Sunday.
The weather can't make up its mind. It is now looking like there could be some rain (but don't let that deter you from coming out) . I hope to see you there.
Sunday PUB-NIGHT/iNtuitive Banter @ The Pint
**\*NOTE\* Our main meetup group for in-person events is Toronto Intuitives.**
Join your community of fellow Intuitives and MBTI nerds for a casual evening of engaging conversation.
We get together every second Sunday – with a mix of regulars and new friends. There is no fee to attend, though we ask that you support the venue by ordering something to eat or drink.
**Feel free to contact event host B. via Facebook/Meetup messenger, or text/call 416-712-8635 for directions**.
About the venue: The Pint Public House
Nearest Subway: Union Station
Map / Directions: https://maps.app.goo.gl/G5GfXDSQXeifJ5ot5
We make an effort to find pubs that are quiet and introvert friendly, with a section to ourselves. We make no effort to muffle our extroverts, but should they get out of hand, our resident INTJ will use their death stare, to pull them back in line.
Meet New People in Toronto | Trattoria & Tuscany
**Meet new people over great food in a relaxed, social setting.**
This is a small-group social dining experience for people who enjoy good food, good conversation, and expanding their circle in a natural way. Everyone attending is there to meet others — no pressure, no awkward networking.
**What to expect**
* A small group (usually 4–8 people)
* A friendly, low-pressure atmosphere
* Easy, natural conversation
**How it works**
We coordinate the group and reserve the table once attendees confirm. The venue and details are shared with the group beforehand.
Just show up, order what you like, and enjoy the experience. Each guest covers their own food and drinks.
To keep groups balanced and confirmed, seat confirmations happen through #dine:

Vegetarian trek for omnivores: Liberty Village to Kensington Market (9 km)
**Attendance policy is enforced for this hike** because it's a popular one. See below for details.
This one is for the vegetarians and vegans who have been missing out on past hikes. And meat-eaters who turn their nose at the mention of vegetables.
This hike will highlight restaurants that showcase vegetables in their natural glory. No vegetarian burgers or vegan cheese. After all, why eat poor imitations of meat when you can eat the real thing? Great vegetarian dishes should stand on their own.
The best variety, quality, and density of vegetarian food is at downtown. Starting from hipster Liberty Village, we'll make our way to hippie Kensington Market. We'll pass by a veritable mix of Chinese, Indian, Italian, Jamaican, Lebanese, Vietnamese (and more) restaurants, each with their own take on veg food.
This hike ends at an Indian-inspired vegan restaurant in Toronto. Guarantee your spot at our [companion event](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/events/313789223/).

Payment on the day of event by cash or e-transfer to globaltorontoeats@gmail.com. No refunds after orders are placed. Details of sampled food will be uploaded after the hike.
Limited cutlery provided. Highly recommended to bring cutlery and containers for omakase and bringing back leftovers.
See our [About section](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/) for more info.
**Attendance policy**
Please check in with an organizer when you arrive. 24 hours before the hike, we'll note down who is on the confirmed list. Those that don't show up will be marked as no-show. Repeat offenders will be banned. Please change your RSVP if you can no longer attend.
If you got off the waitlist less than 24 hours before the event, you won't be considered a no-show.

CMG Gives Back: Serve Brunch at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:20am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1
week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events!
Should be a good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan
Powell Gold Star Referral Club Meetup
We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!
