Back in my day, we didnât have all these fancy gadgets like your electric scooters and video telephones. No sir, we had real transportation, like strapping ourselves to a passing moose and hoping it ran in the right direction! And you think those moose were friendly? HA! Those things were meaner than a grizzly bear on a hot Tuesday, which, by the way, used to be the only day you could find a decent pancake in town, because the pancake man would only show up on the third Tuesday of every month, unless it rained. Oh, and let me tell you, when it rained, it wasnât your little sprinkles and drizzles! No, it poured buckets, and I mean literal buckets, like the sky opened up and just dropped them on us. Had to wear a helmet anytime you went outside, and those helmets were made of old pie tins. None of this newfangled plastic business. We used to eat the pies first, then wear the tins. The pies, now those were made of rutabagas. Didnât taste good, but they built character! Which is more than I can say for your generation! Always running around, pressing buttons and talking to robots! Why, I once had a conversation with a squirrel that lasted three days, and he didnât have any buttons. That squirrel had the best ideas about how to organize a sock drawer! You kids today donât even appreciate a well-organized sock drawer! I tell ya, the worldâs...
   Read moreReview is for wedding planning The Boulevard Club was everything we wanted in a wedding venue - a bit of waterfront admist the city. We also have close family friends who are members of the club and their daughter is getting married there this summer, so this also inspired us to check it out. We reached out to Eric recognizing we were over a year away from our date but we at least wanted an idea of price range and menu / decor options. Eric said they hadn't prepared their budget for the next year yet and that he would get back to me. 6 months later he hasn't gotten back to us and also would not provide us with a current year's quote (with the stipulation that it could change a bit with inflation etc.). This was frustrating as we know how challenging it can be to book a Toronto venue for a June wedding on a Saturday so we wanted to book well in advance. Every other venue we reached out to was happy to provide a quote. We ended up having our family friend forward us their quote but we realized we did not want to work with Eric...
   Read moreI had the pleasure of visiting The Boulevard Club in Toronto two weekends ago as a guest with a member. The experience was outstanding from start to finish.
Kayaking on the lake was a serene and invigorating activity, followed by a delightful meal at the club's restaurant. The menu was extensive and the food good quality, matching the overall high standards of the club. The flavours and presentation was a tad short of some best restaurants, but worth the reasonable price point.
One of the standout features is the remarkable sense of community with very member greeting each us with a friendly hello, embodying the club's warm and welcoming atmosphere. The tennis courts and all other facilities are incredibly well-maintained reflecting the clubs commitment to best experience.
While everything about The Boulevard Club is top-notch, it's worth noting that it comes with a hefty price tag and a membership waiting list of a few years. Nonetheless, for those who can join, it's an exceptional place worthy of a...
