This is a new holiday market in Niagara Falls. Very easy street parking…read more It's in two venues across from each other on third street. Some 40 vendors, I think all local to NF. You'll find quite a few T-shirt stalls - quite varied options. Two booths of creative wreaths - they will last for years. Very large, creative and colorful. Reversible bow ties that win in creativity. They were awesome. I don't know anyone that wears bow ties or I would have certainly picked on up. Great idea. A few places selling mugs, from handmade buffalo themed to knitted mug holders. I recently found macrame pot hangers we made years ago, and I saw them here again. I guess they are back in style. One venue had live music, not too loud, which was really nice. A few places selling various bath bulbs, body scrubs, etc. Many scarf options, I picked one up as a gift. One of the most interesting stalls was called Brick Chick - she makes things for your garden. Very interesting. One site was more cramped than the other, making it a little tight. Great first year event for NF. 105/R-a-D Challenge

I reviewed the list of vendors the day before and I'm so glad I did…read more The event itself was a little overwhelming. So much to look at, so many people... I bought a couple bags of coffee from True Bean. Their coffee is absolutely delicious! It's whole bean coffee, maybe a little less convenient then pre-ground, but its WORTH EVERY PENNY! They were also offering pour over samples of their Ethiopian coffee. Its sooooo good! A dear friend of a friend, Billy Butski had a display of his photography. I had to buy a calendar. 12 beautiful images of the Falls, its gorgeous! The Sample Seed Shop was there with seeds. I bought several types of pepper seeds, and some kale seeds. Remy Rotella is very knowledgeable about the seeds she sells. I also got some catnip seeds that my kitties will surely enjoy, and some Thai Basil seeds that I'm really looking forward to growing. I love making Pad Thai but it's so difficult to find Thai Basil in local stores. I sampled some black garlic hummus from 3 Sisters Garlic that was rich, creamy and not overly garlicky but very tasty. I opted to purchase a black garlic butter. I think it'll taste great over steamed veggies. And lastly I bought a beautiful amethyst heart from Spiritual Landing. All together about $80 spent, including a donation to disabled veterans.

Checked out the pop up store. Thought there was something special about this grocery since it…read morelabels "grocery store of the future". It was simply an education on the extinction of honeybees.

I went last Friday to the Stackt market for the World Cup watch party for the Canada vs Bosnia…read more The market has a wide array of stores that offer some unique stuff to buy They also have some good little spots to eat at I went previously to Las Muns for their empanadas which were really good But I was there for the watch party that was set up by Adidas Amazing set up that they had Large screen to watch the game Nice little eatery inside that offered a burger, a hot dog, a chicken sandwich and a couple of veggie options There was also a few bars both indoor and outdoor The burger wasn't bad Drinks were definitely pricy for the event $14 for a beer or cider Service was quick for the drinks Food was a bit lengthier though so expect a wait Fun fun experience and I would definitely recommend this spot for a watch party during World Cup 2026

I was recently at STACKT Market to visit Las Muns. I drove from work in Mississauga on a Wednesday afternoon. Parking spots are limited at this market. I recommend parking on a side street. There's also paid parking across the street at Farm Boy's underground lot. Las Muns sells handmade empanadas. I loved this store. The empanadas were delicious. There were lots of flavours to choose from. There were a couple of vegan options, too. Most businesses run out of shipping container storefronts. It's cool design-wise. The downside of visiting during a weekday is that not all businesses are open. I'd estimate that at least half the businesses weren't available for me to peruse. As an example, Dayday Film is a camera store. I like looking at digital cameras from decades past. This place refurbishes older cameras and supports photography through them. Sadly, I couldn't visit this place, as it's only open on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. There's an open patio space that looked cute. I can see this space being popular when it's warmer outside. The lanterns and the Tiny Tom Donuts stand made me happy. There were heaters in this area. Maybe there are winter activities that happen here, but it didn't look like it with snow on the picnic tables. There was also a nicely decorated piano with snow on it. I see it being a nice place to hang out in the summertime. There are places to grab a snack or a drink. If you're looking for a dine-in restaurant, the only one that I saw was Sundays Pasta Lab. It was open when I was there. It's closed on Mondays. I'm glad that I finally got to check this space out. Normally, I drive past it to see a concert or a hockey game. It was a nice change. (103)

Let me start with pros: it was a neat experience, our server was very friendly, we were with great company and overall had fun together. (We will have fun no matter what!). The concept was a great idea. The only good food was the chocolate mousse dessert! Now the cons: it was WAY overpriced for the experience. People say "you pay for the experience" bull crap! Not only do you purchase tickets in advance for food and reservation, when you go that price does not include drinks or the service charge. Additionally for the price we paid, the food was down right gross. 1. It took us 45 minutes to get a drink. 2. We were over an hour and half in before we got food 2. The rolls they served I'm pretty sure were Hawaiian Rolls with a side of garlic butter 3. The soup, I don't know what the hell was in it but by the time we got it, it was cold and I couldn't even, it it GROSS. 4. You get a choice of beef chicken and we got one of each. The chicken was so salty and insanely dry I could not eat it. The beef was supposed to be short rib, it was pot roast. 5. You had to take a golf cart to get to the restrooms. In the end they bring you a final check we knew would be a service fee and drink charges. I about hit the floor. For what they charged for drinks I could nicely stock a small bar. Beware of "death by fees". We were charged a fee to rent the dome, a service fee, a credit card fee, a processing fee when we prepaid for the dinner AND and another service fee on the final check which by the way was over the entire bill including the prepaid portion. (In which we already paid a fee) In the end the price for 6 people cost more than an all day trip to Epcot at Disney and would have got better food and drinks there. Anywho for anyone thinking of trying this out I highly recommend you don't. SAVE your money and take your friends or significant other somewhere else !!

A great concept, beautifully executed, great staff and service however for the price we paid (my…read moregroup didn't have to pay for the dome) the dinner was lackluster, it didn't help that the food came out lukewarm to cold, and our red wine was not only cold but all in our group agreed that it was not a good wine, and while we aren't wine snobs, we are able to recognize good wine from bad. We did order the cheapest bottle, but not an excuse by any means. Prior to the dinner, I tried out their pre-mixed negroni cocktail, and while it was a decent negroni, again the cost associated with it was too over blown. I can have a (better) cocktail at some of Toronto's nicest restaurants for cheaper! I think the event gets caught up in grabbing headlines, with a celebrity chef, none of that matters if the food is below par. I got the fish and it came with tiny bones a plenty too. As I've mentioned above, full marks for the idea, beautiful deco, great service but lacking in the food and drinks department. We did attend on their first week when temperatures were still cold, so warmer temps might have made this experience better with our food and wine not being so cool on arrival.
