Saving Gigi is owned by a good friend of mine and Vinnie's, just east of Disgraceland and north of Vinnie's shop. That's where I hang during the day, since they have the free wifi.

They're open evenings till 9, so it's a good place to meet before going forth.

In the summer, we can always hit up "the gem" at davenport and ossington.. or get ice cream at dutch dreams. ahhhhhhhhhhhh i can't wait...

If it involves food/ice cream, I want to come too! With a name like The Gem where is the misfits?

Cadillac Lounge (Toronto's only rockabilly bar), Ronnie's (Kensington) and Disgraceland are my votes.

Let others decide, I was simply listing places where I have contacts and could possibly get group deals.
