Windsor also boasts a vibrant bar and restaurant scene, and after all the site-hopping, a girl has got to eat! At The Twisted Apron, a delicious comfort food restaurant, our brunch consisted of French Toast, Eggs Benedict, mouth-watering Mac & Cheese and a delightful selection of homemade jams.

For dinner, the award-winning Neros Steakhouse at Caesars Windsor offered sumptuous steak and lobster, as well as an impressive wine list — I recommend the white sangria!
After dinner — since it was a girls’ trip and the night was young — we headed to Wineology Bar & Restaurant, located in the heart of the trendy Olde Walkerville neigbourhood, for an after-dinner drink, and then on to nearby F&B, a cozy cocktail and small plates resto, for dessert.
Both spots have Instagram-worthy statement walls. My fave was the towering wine rack on the wine cellar wall at Wineology.

The most memorable meal, however, was breakfast the following morning at A Dog’s Breakfast, where we both ordered the Lasagna French Toast — and yes, it was as sinfully delicious and decadent as it sounds.
The Art Gallery of Windsor (AGW), the city’s cultural jewel in the crown, is another must-visit. A showcase for local, regional and national artists, this summer’s exhibits include “401 West! Portrait of the Region,” featuring painting, photography, sculptor and graphic art by 20 artists, including photography guru Yousuf Karsh.
