Pretty Clean Shop Toronto

A sustainable & stunning shop

"There is so much to see in this stunning space, and they have such a wide selection, you could spend hours inside and still not see it all!"

Back in 2022, this sustainable shop got quite the glow-up when it moved to a bigger, brighter location filled with beautiful products that are better for the planet. There is so much to see in this stunning space, from their refill area where you can buy home and personal care products by bringing your own container to Canadian-made sustainable swaps, and a great selection of gifts and greeting cards.

Some specific items that I’ve bought myself include a wooden play set for a friend’s toddler, a cardboard packaged, a Canadian-made sunscreen stick, and a super cute seed card to give as part of a gift. But believe me when I say they have such a wide selection, you could spend hours inside and still not see it all!

As if this sustainable shop didn’t have enough going for it, the area of the city it’s in, The Junction, also makes it a must-visit! Stop in at The Sweet Potato, a natural grocery shop, for a snack, or try Nodo for a delicious Italian dinner, and I can’t forget about Famous Last Words, where their cocktails named after famous novels are a must-try!

Smack in the middle of downtown

Khau Gully

Best Northern Indian Food in Toronto

"Khau Gully" is my favorite Northern Indian restaurant in Toronto. Street food is its thing but it's best to sit in for its beautifully painted dining room

"Aloette" in Toronto is an upscale bistro with a wider range of food. Their burger is definitely a staple, and their iceberg wedge salad is a sleeper hit!
