FAVOURITE RESTAURANT AND DISH
“Grand Electric on Queen Street West, Toronto. Tacos and Bourbon. It shouldn't work but it really, really does.”
VACATION CHOICE
“My family has a small island in Georgian Bay a few hours outside Toronto. Travelled the whole world but have yet to find a place with all the perfect qualities… close enough to run away to, far away enough to breath, and remote enough to lose cellphone signal.”
TOP CITY
“Flip a coin. Los Angeles during the day and Berlin at night. LA is so close to water, mountain and desert so quick adventures are easy to come by. And Berlin… last time I was there a taxi driver served us shots of cheap vodka, sang us an aria and then gave me his business card with a picture of him wearing a clown nose. That was the beginning of the night.”
FAVOURITE HOTEL
“The Bowery Hotel in New York. Unpretentious, casual, historic and I love that you can just sit downstairs and be guaranteed an interesting night.”
TYPE OF BAG
“A backpack.”
STYLE ICON
“Sam Shepard, Richard Avedon, Miles Davis, Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Francois Truffaut – timeless, considered but not overthought.”
STYLE TIP
“The best shoes are comfortable.”
TAILOR
“On set.”
BEST SHIRT BRAND
“I’m wearing a lot of Sydney Mamane's button ups. They fit perfectly. He's got a shop called Sydney's in Toronto.”
FAVOURITE SUIT
“Zegna and J.Lindeberg. I just got my first John Varvatos three piece; love it much.”
UNDERWEAR CHOICE
“Have to leave some things up to the imagination.”
ESSENTIAL GADGET
“My cameras.”
BEST BOOK
“The Tao te Ching. Because it’s saved my life a couple of times.”
FAVOURITE ALBUM
“Impossible question. Right now… LCD Soundsystem – Sound of Silver”
