Patio On College St


The temperature is +13˚C (55˚F) here today when it is usually only 1˚C at this time of year. If it wasn't for the light rain coming down this patio would probably be filled with happy Torontonians cheating winter for a little while more. I took this pic at the end of October when temps were much the same never thinking that patios could still be open today. This is one of my favourite restaurants, Kalendar, which has such a lovely European vibe that you would think you were in Paris when you walk through the door! (The clock is not working!)

  1. Oh, yes, Paris in Toronto, how wonderful. Great photo. And such warm temperatures, too bad about the rain. It's -2 here and we're debating whether to take the dog to Costco with us or leave her outside. -2 is warm for December in our corner of Alberta.

  2. It seems a nice restaurant, I like the atmosphere, specially the tables outside (during summer, of course).
    Brrrrrr…it's cold... Keep warm! ;-)

  4. If this keeps up I won't be able to gloat it over all my eastern relatives re: the weather we're having on the coast.

  7. If I could feel like I was in Paris by walking in that restaurant I would like not eat anywhere else! Glad that you're having nice weather. I hope you got B Farr's info on sweet tea...

  8. I love this, the red awnings against the black walls, so very, very european. We too are having balmy weather, what is going on?

  9. It does look European, doesn't it? The weather all around the world is pretty crazy this year. A few minutes ago I read a poster in Avignon, France, saying it is warm there and the leaves have not yet fallen off.

  10. A nice relaxed looking place, I imagine it gets very busy when the sun is shining and the weather is warm.

  11. Looks good Red, make the most of the sunshine, surely it's got to change soon, the cold may be late, but it's bound to come eventually! Hope it stays a little longer and you have a sunny weekend!
