Art Gallery of Ontario
The best thing about the AGO is that it's free for ages 25 and younger! Unfortunately it is not cheap for memberships for ages 26+, and I probably wouldn't visit if it were paid.
There are some good exhibits, my favourite one has to be the model ships downstairs. I'm not a huge art fan but they do have temporarily exhibits such as KAWs. Overall it's a clean art gallery, well organized with coat check (free for prohibited items like bags). I recommend you buy tickets online to avoid the lineup. There is a gift shop and a Bistro inside. I wish it had longer hours on weekdays.

Scarborough Town Centre
Plenty of free parking. There are regularly new stores and restaurants, a good variety of budget and regular mall chains. Clean, spacious, and well decorated
Bar Koukla
We made a reservation here on a weekend evening, but there was plenty of space so we switched from bar seating to table. Very kind servers who refilled our water every single time.
The interior here is nicely decorated, and clean. There is a large bar, and a few tables for dining.
We got the sesame bread with honey butter, lamb ribs, and gnocchi. The sesame bread was served warm, the honey butter was sweet and salty. The Lamb ribs were firm and well cooked and seasoned. The gnocchi dish was very small, but they use high quality olive oil that I could taste. The food quality was very high.
For two people, this was not enough food (unless you have a small appetite). Prices are high for the portion size.
Washrooms are downstairs, inaccessible.

Pingle's Farm Market
Such a great farm to visit for a day trip with friends and family!
First of all, the shop/bakery has a large variety of home canned and jarred goods, meats, pre picked fruits. The little bakery at the back has the best selection of donuts, bars, cookies, pastries, and even includes gluten free and other options. All of these were for great prices! We got some donuts to share and they were amazing and fresh!
We also picked some strawberries, they have a lot in the fields in mid July, and we were able to quickly fill our baskets.
The lavender fields are also beautiful! There's a swing and purple piano to pose with for instagram pictures.
There's also a picnic area and small zoo.
There's only 2 washrooms but they were very clean.
Lots to do for kids and adults alike! Highly recommend

Kin Kin Bakery
This Chinese bakery is located downstairs near the Atrium food court (in the mall across the road from the Eaton center).
They have all the main types of buns and some dim sum too. The pineapple read bean bun I got was ok, not the most fresh. The dim sum looked really old like it was sitting there all day.
They accept credit card.
There's lots of seating right outside the bakery.
