Chiado and Senhor Antonio Tapas and Wine Bar are the creation of Albino Silva one of North America’s leading chefs and restaurateurs.
Nestled in a sophisticated European designed setting the internationally critically acclaimed Chiado Restaurant is a beautiful blend of old world charm and timeless elegance.
Senhor Antonio Tapas and Wine Bar’s contemporary design and eclectic location present a dual personality as both an intimate environment and one of the city’s most unique event spaces both in size and configuration as well as locale.
Silva’s “Progressive Portuguese” cuisine has been praised for its bold flavours and creative presentations. The menus feature such delights as ocean fresh filet of wild Atlantic salmon crusted with peppercorns, fresh herbs and marine salt served with tender organic, hand picked seasonal vegetables. The bounty of fish is flown in from the Azores island daily. The seared and roasted beef tenderloin seasoned with black peppercorns and served on saffron roasted potatoes topped off with an old tawny Port wine sauce is a testament that the kitchen also knows meat, the lean, flavourful cut roasted exactly as ordered.

Batman And Robin featuring...the Sensational Guitars of Dan & Dale Tifton Audio Series 78002
Good plus condition (featuring members of Sun Ra Arkestra)
"In 1966, a toy company in Newark, New Jersey released a children's record called Batman and Robin to cash in on the popular Adam West TV series of the same name. The music on the LP was credited to "The Sensational Guitars of Dan and Dale," but in fact the band was one of the greatest uncredited session combos of all time, including the core of Sun Ra's Arkestra and Al Kooper's Blues Project. To keep the music licensing fees to a minimum, all the tracks were based on public domain items like Chopin's Polonaise Op. 53, the horn theme from Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony and the love theme from Romeo and Juliet, and generic rock riffs. It's all instrumental, with the exception of Robin's Theme, featuring an uncredited vocalist."

Are you wondering about converting your attic to a loft room? Thinking of building an addition? Can’t make sense of “R (d1.0)(x7)” when you look at the Toronto zoning maps?
I can provide you with up to four hours of urban planning advice and research. I'll explain the zoning permissions for your property and help you find out if your renovation plans will require a minor variance from the zoning bylaw. I can help you prepare your application for a building permit or a minor variance, help you prepare for the Committee of Adjustment hearing and advise you on how to get your project approved. I can also offer advice on how to effectively oppose a project if you have concerns about a proposed development in your neighbourhood.
