Spicy Food

🎬 Let’s Go to the Movies (and Actually Talk… or Not) Whether you're a film nerd, popcorn enthusiast, or just looking for a chill night out with interesting people — this one's for you. We’re heading out to see a movie together, then grabbing food or drinks after. If the film's great (or terrible), we’ll probably talk about it forever. If it’s just okay, we’ll talk about it for 10 minutes and move on to everything else — books, dating apps, weird dreams, how Toronto keeps getting more expensive, etc. The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and not too serious. No film degree needed. No icebreakers. No pressure to “perform.” Just come enjoy the film, connect with some thoughtful people, and see where the night goes Click here to watch trailer! 🎞️ **Movie Title + Trailer:** [[Click here to watch trailer!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fLCdIYShEQ)] 📖 **📖 Plot Summary:** Based on Emily Brontë's 1847 novel. *** ### 🗓️ **Event Details** 📍 **Meetup Time:** 6:30pm - I will only wait 5mins 🎬 **Movie Start Time:** 6:40pm ⏱️ **Runtime:** 2hrs12mins 📌 **Meetup Spot:**I will be at the top of the escalators by the wall of movie posters and I will be wearing my Moose hat. 🎟️ **Cost:** * **$11.50** for *CineClub* members * **$16.00** regular admission 👉 You are responsible for buying your own ticket. **🪑 Reserved Seating:** You must buy your ticket *before* signing up.

**Attendance policy is enforced for this hike**. See below for details. Escape the Canadian winter by ducking into the PATH. One of the longest underground retail spaces in the world, the PATH is great for indoor walks, if you don't mind getting disoriented in its maze. This hike covers all major paths in the PATH and almost all minor ones. It's completely indoors, so there's no need for winter gear. The route is filled with sights as it goes through malls, office buildings, sporting venues, municipal buildings, theatres, and more. Unfortunately for foodies, there isn't a lot of great food inside the PATH. And most businesses are closed on weekends and at night. Nevertheless, we'll highlight the best of the lot so that you know where to go to the next time you find yourself underground. New for this year's hike: * Cluck'N Bowl * Jacobs and Co * Las Muns * Grandma Loves You **Highlights** 1. Miku (depart 1:30pm) 2. One York 3. Infinity condos 4. CIBC Square 5. Union Station: % Arabica (depart 2:15pm) 6. Skywalk to CN Tower 7. Royal Bank Plaza 8. Brookfield Place 9. Commerce Court 10. TD Centre / Design Exchange 11. TD Gallery of Indigenous Art (depart 3:20pm) 12. Metro Hall 13. Roy Thomson Hall 14. First Canadian Place 15. Bay-Adelaide Centre food court (depart 4:35pm) 16. Toronto Stock Exchange 17. Richmond-Adelaide Centre 18. Eaton Centre 19. Atrium on Bay 20. Moon Palace (arrive 5:10pm) **Neighbourhoods** South Core > Entertainment District > Financial District > Yonge-Bay Corridor **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1swPaDLu4mA2yZPZLw-QyLHq2EgK1K4A&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1swPaDLu4mA2yZPZLw-QyLHq2EgK1K4A&usp=sharing) There will be a fair bit of backtracking. Some stairs. **How it works** Hike starts punctually. Late or can't do the whole route? Meet us at scheduled checkpoints. We'll browse many food places but won't linger long. See the route in advance, organize takeout, then pickup along the way. Not sure what to try? Join our omakase for $5, which gives a sample from different restaurants. 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. If you can't keep up and get lost in the PATH, we'll probably never see you again. See our [About section](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/) to understand why we don't wait for people going below the target speed and what else to expect. **Attendance policy** Please check in with an organizer when you attend. 24 hours before the hike, we'll check who is on the confirmed list. Those that don't show up will be flagged. Repeat offenders will be banned. Please change your RSVP if you can no longer attend. If you made it off the waitlist less than 24 hours before the event, you won't be considered a no-show.
