Michelin Recognized Upscale Thai Barbeque

Port Lands: Moonlight shining toward us (6.1 km)

Biidaasige Park has become the top urban park in Canada in barely more than a year. The play area is impressive with ziplines and water works. Biking and walking paths wind through tranquil, restored wetlands and scattered artworks. Design thinking is evident in the placement of amenities and trail layout. If you haven't visited it already, go during the day. This hike happens at night, when you can see the park in a different light (or lack thereof). The park is a key development in the Port Lands area, which will transform into Toronto's newest neighbourhood in the next decade. This hike will start at the eastern end, follow the coastline to Cherry Beach and swing up to the park. Most of the area is still industrial. The only good place to eat is at the end, a local favourite for barbecue. **Highlights** 1. Leslie Lookout Park (depart 6:30 pm) 2. Hearn Generating Station 3. Waterfront Trail 4. Cherry Beach Life Guard Station (depart 7:13 pm) 5. Bridges of Port Lands 6. Atlas Crane 7. Lassonde Art Trail 8. Views of Toronto skyline 9. Ziplines at Biidaasige playground 10. Giant snow owl, beavers, raccoons, and other critters 11. Cherry Street Bar-B-Que (arrive 8pm) **Neighbourhoods** Port Lands > Lower Don Lands **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1EJACCyOoX-EdS2UE7Kpnic7P6rtmvac&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1EJACCyOoX-EdS2UE7Kpnic7P6rtmvac&usp=sharing) The trail from the start to Cherry Beach has no lighting but is wide and flat. You will be walking in the dark, perhaps with moonlight or city lights illuminating some of the way. Headlamps or torches can be helpful. Recommended to bike, walk, or take a TTC bus to the start point because it's troublesome to return there in the dark. **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.

We will head up stairs to their exhibition place on the third floor to see After the Island: Caribbean Canadian Ceramics Clay receives the gestures of the human body. Hands press, scrape, squeeze, and pour it. Forms are fixed by heat, becoming permanent yet breakable. https://www.gardinermuseum.on.ca/event/after-the-island-caribbean-canadian-ceramics/ Then we will head to the second floor, to look at what I call Not Your Mother's China. Earthenwares, represented by ceramics from the Ancestral Abiayala, Italian Renaissance maiolica, and English delftware; and Porcelain, with a focus on European porcelain of the 18th century, including specialized collections of Commedia dell’Arte figures and scent bottles. Everytime I see this exhibit, I find some very cool stuff. https://www.gardinermuseum.on.ca/collections-research/

End of Summer Bash BBQ 2026!

🌰 Hogg’s Hollow Fall Walk & Lunch! 🍂!

### 🌰 Hogg’s Hollow Fall Walk & Lunch! 🍂 Join us for a beautiful fall walk through Hogg’s Hollow, one of Toronto’s charming historic neighbourhoods tucked away in North York. With its winding roads, forested trails, stone bridges, and scenic ravines, this area feels like a hidden village in the middle of the city — especially when the leaves turn golden and the air starts to feel like autumn. We’ll explore the valley around the Don River West Branch, taking in the neighbourhood’s natural beauty and historic character. Along the way, we’ll touch on the story of James Hogg, the Scottish settler associated with the area’s early mill, and the tragic **Hogg’s Hollow Disaster of 1960**, when five workers lost their lives during tunnel construction. After our walk, we’ll head to **Swiss Chalet** for lunch, because nothing says fall like comfort food and good company! 🍗 ### 📍 Meetup Location — Please Read Carefully! **We’re meeting directly in front of the Shell gas station store entrance.** Please stand **right in front of the entrance to the store**, where people walk in and out. Look for my famous Moose Hat! 🦌 ### 🕒 Meetup Details * **Meeting time:** 11:00 AM * **Departure:** 11:05 AM sharp. I’ll wait a maximum of five minutes. * **Ending location:** We’ll return to our starting point, making it convenient for anyone arriving by transit or car. * **Meetup fee:** $5, payable in cash or by e-transfer to **[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com](mailto:mathewmaclean@hotmail.com)**. ### 🥾 What to Bring * Water * Comfortable walking shoes * A snack if you’d like something before lunch * Weather-appropriate clothing ☔ **Rain or shine!** There’s no such thing as bad weather — just inappropriate clothing. ### 🍽️ After the Walk — We’d Love You to Join Us for Lunch! The walk is only part of the fun! After exploring Hogg’s Hollow, we’ll head to Swiss Chalet for lunch and more conversation. We encourage everyone to join us, even if you can only stay for a little while. Some of our best conversations happen after the activity, when we share stories, get to know one another, and start building friendships. The walk brings us together, but spending time together afterward is often where those connections really begin. We’d love for you to be part of it! Everyone pays for their own meal. ### 👥 About the Group Whether you’re single or partnered, you’re welcome to join us to get outdoors, meet people, and make connections. We also organize movies, walks, hikes, arts and culture outings, restaurant visits, and plenty more. **You can RSVP ahead of time or show up on the day** if you’re not sure you can make it. Organized by Mathew. Questions? Post on the event wall or email **[torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com](mailto:torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com)**. 🍂 Enjoy the walk. Stay for lunch. Leave with new connections.
