The Gardiner Museum
A calm, well-chosen ceramics collection right across from the ROM that most visitors walk straight past.

THE RESO
“If it's worth doing, it's worth booking.”
In Toronto a reservation is a reso, and the good ones are gone weeks out. Reso travelers want the real version of the famous thing, and they've done the reading to make sure they get it. They're the reason the group had a table.
How to travel: Build the trip around a few things done right: the booked table, the timed entry, the first ferry out. You don't need more stops. You need better ones.
