Visiting for a work trip, what should I do?

Every major city community needs a post or two like this, right?

Flying in Monday, June 26 (can make it as early in the day as I'd like, really) and have the whole day free. 9-5 at work the next two days and flying out on the Thursday (again, anytime).

The office is near Union Square, so I imagine the hotel is going to be close by (actually making travel arrangements on Tuesday, but the hotel will be preselected by the company). There are no dinner plans on the itinerary but I suspect I'll have some unofficial invites out for dinner or at least drinks, so don't want to plan too much on these days - but contingencies are good to have - or reccomendations for my fellows flying in.

I love food of all sorts (I hear SFO is the only place in the world with traditional Japanese tofu still being made? Also please tell me where all the best bubble tea is), crowds, and walking. I'm a city rat and anything that lets me take in the urban feel is much appreciated. Any unique cultural experiences are a must.

I'm also queer, so reccomendations for gay shit requested. I know I'm just missing Pride, but it's also Pride at home the weekend prior, so I'll be doing that.

If there is any sort of activity I can join as a solo person for some camraderie that isn't just drinking in a club/bar/pub please let me know. Something like boardgames or Escape Games where you're paired with strangers can be fun or frustrating but I'll risk it, haha.

Information for the 2023 Toronto By-Election of Mayor
  • What can I do if I didn't advance vote and just got a job that will have me out of town for training on the 26th? My partner is not a Canadian Citizen, but can she be my proxy? Otherwise do I have to drag a friend to City Hall and have them vote in person on the 26th?
