I travel the country on business, sometimes the world. Come see where I've been. |
Date: Week of May 22nd Locale: Toronto, Ontario, Canada This week's class takes me to Toronto Ontario once again. It's my eighth or ninth trip here, and is beginning to feel like home. Okay, not really, but you get my drift. This is a short trip, with the class only lasting three days. Which means that I won't get out much at all. In all my times to Toronto, I've never really explored the city much, never been to the waterfront, and never seen the CNTower, or any of the other sights around the city. I hate paying to park everywhere I go, I'm not used to it, so that's one reason. Another is my aversion to being in the center of a large city with crowds of people all around. But the real reason, is that my customers have been in Mississauga, or the North York area, which is a little north of the city itself. Yes, I could go there after class, but that would mean fighting traffic that's easily as bad as Chicago's. Add to it a little fatigue from a long day teaching, which results in excuses as to why I've never been to the city proper. Perhaps I need a little incentive.... This was an interesting class, a first in some ways, since their RF system is a little unique. The class asked many questions, ending with us discussing their setup, how to best manage it, configure it, and maintain it. This was my third time with these students, so four of them were almost like old friends, with two new ones. Noteworthy Restaurants: Three Brewers Restaurant https://www.les3brasseurs.ca/ Their Tuna Poke is good, but I liked the Tuna Carpaccio a bit more. They have several dishes categorized as 'Flammekueches', and their Smoked Salmon one was excellent! I'll be in Schaumburg, Illinois for the next couple of weeks, but may head to California mid June. That class is not firm yet, but I'm hoping it will be this week. If so, I plan on meeting NaNoNette for lunch again. Enjoy the Spring! Summer is almost here my friends. |
