If you've never been to a restaurant where you eat in complete darkness, you really should give it a try. Recently we visited Toronto restaurant O Noir, where you get to eat your three course meal in darkness. We highly recommend going out and trying this. Its a great experience. All of the waiters are visually impaired and are helpful in guiding you through the meal, and don't worry if you can't find your plate, spill your drink or you put your knife in your mouth by accident, it's a pretty common problem in the dark. Not only is it eyeopening to experience how difficult it would be to be completely blind, but it is also a lot of fun, especially if you go with a group of friends.
There is also a fashion show being held there on March 4th. The event is called 'Bright Night - Dining & Fashion in the Dark'. It's a fundraiser for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. Some Toronto designers are showcasing pieces, both in the dark and in the light. It should be a great event, so pencil it in on your calendar for sure.
