I was tagged by Sparky Duck to do this Hometown Meme. Hmmm I had to think since London, Ontario is not as cool as Philly.

Best Place to Eat: Let’s see, hmmm this is tricky there is sooooo many great places to eat in London, Ontario. So I am going to pick Michael on the Thames. Fancy yes, but they make the Caesar Salad Dressing right in front of you and there is a singing waiter … I can’t remember his name at the moment but he’s Italian and he’s been there forever and he has a wonderful voice. Oh and the filet mignon is to DIE for.

Best Shopping Mall: I am going with White Oaks Mall by my place. It’s weird shaped, it’s got awesome stores. Not all top end like Masonville but a great selection. Masonville used to really rock the house with the awesome indoor miniature golf course modeled after some famous greens. I loved it, but it’s gone so White Oaks take over.

 Famous Landmark: The Eldon House. On my old blog I did a post about this. The house rocks, it’s an amazing well preserved old structure.

 
Best Place for Kids: Well there’s many Adventures on Wonderland, which is like ball rooms and hamster tubes. I took Boo there it was insane to say the least. Then there is the Children’s Museum which I haven’t been too yet but I hear excellent things about and finally Storybook Gardens which has famous Slippery the Seal who escaped from this zoo swam down the Thames and out into Lake Erie where the poor seal got lost.

Popular Outdoor Activity: I would have to say rowing and running. Lots of paths, lots of trees you get the drill. Just watch out for the wild turkeys. Especially Tom who likes to hang out with the geese down by the river. That’s one warped Turkey.

Breathtaking View: The arboretum above Storybook Gardens full of trees, trees and more trees around the beautiful Thames River. It’s gorgeous.

 
Only found in London: Well there’s lots, Slippery the Seal, the John Labatt Centre (pictured above), University of Western Ontario and the craziest restaurant where all the lawyers in London seem to hang … well not all of them only the dudes I work with Joe Kools. They like to advertise that their food is terrible better than hospital. LOL.

 I don’t know who to tag so whoever wants to.
