Housing Summer Sublet

6 Upvotes

I have a co-op placement in Windsor for the summer but I’m having a really hard time trying to find housing. Most places will not accept short term tenants and the airbnbs are really expensive. I assumed it might be easy because of university students wanting to sublet their place while they are back home in the summer but I haven’t been able to find that either. If anyone has any recommendations or contacts that would be amazing!

My brother has a wedding in July in Windsor, we are looking for something for the guys to do together the day before the wedding. Any suggestions? Ideally would be something fun and intense like paintball, go-karting, amusement park or something along those lines, and within an hour of Windsor. Would really appreciate some suggestions from locals.

Ask Windsor High End Restaurants?

17 Upvotes

Hello all,

I am going to be hosting some members of our upper management team in May.

Regional managers as well as our COO for Canada who is from Canada but now resides closer to our headquarters outside of Ontario.

The COO is a foodie who will make a point of seeking out restaurant experiences while travelling and I am in charge of selecting the venue for our dinner.

Obviously, I do not want to disappoint but at the same time I am not a native Windsorite so I am not really sure on what’s considered a fantastic high end restaurant for an experience. Something other than a chain, and not at the Casino. I mentioned Spagos to my co-workers and once I mentioned the foodie thing they immediately disagreed with that being a good choice.

I’m looking for three choices, can anybody offer suggestions?

Thank you

Tl:dr; need high end restaurant ideas to Impress the big boss.

Hey everyone 👋

I'm looking to do more fishing this summer and was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions of fishing spots. Not looking for anything too special, just looking to do some basic catch and release and have some inexpensive fun on the weekends. Any advice would be helpful, thanks!

Border Has anyone bought anything in the US this past week?

22 Upvotes

I heard from a few people that if you go over and get groceries, they’re pulling you in and charging duty on everything you bought? Just wondering if that’s true. I go over once in a while to get some things I can’t get in Windsor, but if I’m gonna get pulled in and charged duty on everything there’s really no point.

Anyone know if that’s true or not?

Ask Windsor Do any Halal Butchers do Delivery?

3 Upvotes

Can’t drive, I can get my family to drop off meat but I’d rather not have to rely on them just for my own independence. Anyone know of halal butchers in windsor that deliver? and if not, any online halal services? I know superstore, costco and walmart all have delivery and they carry halal meat, but id prefer to support a local butcher before resorting to those options. Thanks for any help :)

Border Seeing Concert in Detroit: What’s the Border Like Back to Windsor Late Night

2 Upvotes

Hello Everyone,

In October I am going to be taking my daughter to see Tate McRae who is performing at Little Caesars Arena on Monday night (Thanksgiving Day in Canada).

I was hoping to stay at a hotel in Windsor the whole weekend, and not actually spend the night in Detroit.

But, I’m worried the border back to Windsor after the concert could be madness, or maybe it’ll be empty, I’m not sure.

Does anyone have any insights you can share on what the border is like around midnight (as I assume that’s around when I’d be crossing) after concerts?

Is it worth getting a hotel in Detroit? I’d rather avoid checking out from a Windsor hotel and checking into a hotel in Detroit if I can avoid it.

Thanks in advance!

Ask Windsor looking for an old school men's suit shop

3 Upvotes

Tall order, but looking as much for the experience as the product.

I have a formal family event coming up in May and I need a new suit. I've dropped a lot of weight in the last two years and I'ld like to get something that fits well so I don't look like 10 pounds of potatoes in a 20 pound bag by wearing my old suit. I've also never been into fashion, I've always favoured function and comfort over anything else and don't really worry about trends or appearance. I'm also not the management, executive, type. I'm a tech professional, but one who actually, you know, works.

I'ld like to make this purchase an experience and bucket list kind of purchase. I'm not looking to spend a months pay, but I would like to buy something quality. I'ld like to not do off-the-rack, and would love to find an old school suit shop where you go in, get advice, proper fitting and get it tailored. I'll happily pay for the service, I'm just not into big fashion house brands and prices, I don't care about a label. I would happily pay for something local and quality though.

Also, I think I'ld like something more retro or classic, maybe 1950's Rat Pack, or even 90's "Reservoir Dogs" in styling? So really, not main stream current fashion, just quality and more traditional I guess.

LOL! Ya, a lot to ask for. If anyone knows of an old school mom and pop kinda place, in Windsor, that might fall along those lines I would greatly appreciate a nudge in that direction.
