Why Hamilton Is The Best City in Ontario

• Why Hamilton Is The Best City in Ontario

2

• If you asked me where I would practice if I
  could choose anywhere, Id choose Hamilton every
  time. Theres a small town vibe that makes it
  great for families but culture and style are
  still a big part of the city. Its the best of
  two worlds and only a quick jump away from
  Toronto. The accessibility to the GTA makes
  Hamilton a great place to open a
  community-oriented business.
• So what are a few our favourite places?

Best Places To Eat In Hamilton

• One of the things Im very conscious of, as a
  personal injury lawyer, is the availability of
  accessible dining options wherever I go. Its not
  just about accommodating people in wheelchairs,
  but also people with limited mobility of various
  kinds. Someone who has recently been injured in a
  car accident may have difficulty negotiating
  stairs. Here are a few of my favourite accessible
  options in the Hamilton area

• Cafe Limoncello open for breakfast, lunch and
  dinner, there is something for even a picky eater
  at this laid back but still pretty eatery. If you
  like traditional Italian food, including
  delicious pasta dishes and pizzas, this is
  definitely a good choice! 226 Ottawa St. N.,
  Hamilton [phone]

• The Aberdeen Tavern a taste of a time gone by
  is what you get at this elegant restaurant. The
  warm wood decor and padded banquettes makes the
  perfect backdrop for lunch or dinner on a cold
  winter day. The summer patio is a hidden gem that
  you wont want to miss either. Dont take my word
  for it though the Hamilton Spectator recently
  reviewed it too! My tip? Go for the flat iron
  steak. Its delicious! 432 Aberdeen Ave.,

Best Arts And Culture In Hamilton

• Maybe because of the smaller venues or the more
  low-key approach but a lot of great shows and
  exhibitions come through Hamilton everything
  from Disney on Ice to edgy photography displays.
  Being so close to Toronto but so much more
  affordable makes Hamilton the right place for a
  lot of artists to showcase themselves.

  large scale events at the FirstOntario Centre,
  where you can see Blue Man Group live, or maybe
  the MiniPops? Depending on what you and your
  family are interested in, there is a lot to
  choose from. Disney on Ice, anyone? Hamilton
  Theatre Inc. is a more low-key locale, bringing
  broadway style shows to our area. Or check out
  the McIntyre Performing Arts Centre at Mohawk
  College for community or school performances of
  some great shows.

12

• Studies and galleries the Art Gallery of
  Hamilton is definitely worth a trip, with an
  amazing collection as well as ongoing new
  exhibitions. The Norval Morrisseau exhibition
  that is on now is particularly good. The McMaster
  Museum of Art showcases the universitys
  extensive collection, but there are also many
  smaller galleries throughout the area that seek
  to display emerging, upcoming artists and their
  works.

Best Business Destination Hamilton

• There is so much growth in Hamilton, but yet as
  I said before, it still retains that smaller town
  vibe. The city is focused on its civics record
  and planning for the growth and retention of
  businesses of all sizes, from micro and home
  based to large agricultural or technical
  installations.

• With excellent medical care facilities,
  including six area hospitals and a cancer care
  centre, huge employers, extensive industrial
  development, educational facilities at Mohawk
  College and McMaster University that are second
  to none, positioning your home and business life
  in a city like Hamilton makes sense. The area is
  attracting great talent in all areas of business
  and industry, making viable the opportunity to
  build and grow a business.

• Add to the fact that Hamilton is the perfect
  transport hub for shipping and cargo, with air,
  rail, water and highway access to and from the
  GTA.
• Whether youre into live music, theatre,
  festivals or food, Hamilton has you covered. You
  might visit for a weekend but youll stay for a
  lifetime.
