Best of Toronto - NOW Magazine

Now Magazine has tabulated some of the votes for the BEST in TORONTO! You can find anything from the best Emerging Author to the best Underwear Store! Crazy, I know! The issue comes out every October. Below are some of Toronto's Best this year!!

Best manicures and pedicures
Heartbreaker
889 Dundas West
416-869-0440

A bordello of beautiful nails started by Shelley Ring and Tareleigh Wallace from the Barberella salon next door, Heartbreaker paints up manis and pedis using eco-friendly, bold-hued lacquers.


Best shoes
Imelda
123 Roncesvalles
647-344-1006

Cathryn Dajka proved her taste in footwear is as refined as her clothing buys for Frock (down the street) when she opened Imelda and stocked the shoe shop with the hottest heels and boots ever to walk down Roncy.


Best sex supplies
Come As You Are
701 Queen West
416-504-7934

Shoppers looking for a sex-positive spot are invited check out Come As You Are for lustful selections.


Best vintage furniture
Smash
2880 Dundas West
416-762-3113

Paul Mercer has given up Jesus (the massive hot pink statue of G-O-D’s favourite son has vanished from the floor of his Junction salvage store) and found a side business in silk screening, filling Toronto poster shops with the Keep Calm and Carry On bills that cheered us through 2009’s economic slump.


Best florist
Petals
416-843-2840

It doesn’t have a storefront, so picking Erin Perri and Avissa Mojtahedi’s Petals might look like a leap of faith, but the duo’s architecture and interior design backgrounds guarantee creative arrangements that think outside the bouquet
