A visit to the Museum can last for hours. One time I spent roughly 4 hours there and didn't quite see the whole place, I also tent to read the descriptions a lot. Many interesting things to see and some time they have special exhibits for an extra fee.
3rd Monday Night of each month enjoy free admission from 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm.

Sir Henry Pellatt, the dreamer behind Toronto’s famous heritage site; Casa Loma, was born to his British parents in Kingston, Ontario on January 6, 1859. Ambitious from his youth, Sir Henry Pellatt left his studies at Upper Canada College when he was seventeen to pursue a career in commerce in the family business. By the age of twenty-three, he became a full partner in his father’s stock brokerage firm Pellatt and Pellatt. That year was also marked by his marriage to Mary Dodgeson, whom he met when he was twenty.
Even as a young man, Henry Pellatt embraced the spirit of the family motto “Devant Si Je Puis” or “Foremost If I Can”. When he met his bride-to-be, Sir Pellatt had already achieved local renown in 1879 for beating the U. S. amateur champion of the one mile race. Travels to Europe gave him the love for fine art and architecture, which would spur his vision of Casa Loma-“House on the Hill.” This romantic side was mirrored by his other lifelong passion-his involvement with the military, specifically the Queen’s Own Rifles.

Vira’s BBQ is a small family take-out, located at Davenport Road and Uxbridge Avenue – in the heart of the Portuguese village in Toronto. It was founded in 2016 by Vira Bandura, a Ukrainian chef, who learned traditional Portuguese cuisine in Portugal, by the Atlantic ocean in Porto. This is why every dish on Vira’s BBQ menu carries authentic taste of Portugal.
The idea of such place originated a long time ago, when Donna Vira fell in love with Portuguese kitchen. She dedicated herself to learning the complex combinations of original Portuguese ingredients that combine into a unique bouquet of flavors and aromas.
After moving to Canada 8 years ago, Dona Vira worked in a variety of local Portuguese restaurants and cafes, gathering the experience and knowledge of Portuguese food industry business in Canada. This, along with additional 7 years of experience in many restaurants in Portugal allowed her to open a new kind of a take-out facility in Toronto, which delivers true, bona fide tastes of Portuguese cuisine to Canadians.
In her kitchen, Dona Vira incorporates only those ingredients and spices that she thinks truly bring out savory flavors of her dishes. That’s why they always smell so good! And they taste even better!!!
Come visit Vira’s BBQ and discover the true taste of Portugal in Toronto!
