Weekend Planner: September 5–6, 2009

AIR: If you thought it was noisy this afternoon, not to mention yesterday, get ready—that was just the warm-up. Vipers, Hawks, Griffons, Hornets, Raptors, and a bunch of guys whose names begin with the letter “M” salute you from the sky every afternoon this Labour Day weekend. The Canadian Forces’ Snowbirds and the United States Navy Blue Angels headline the Canadian International Air Show, now in its sixtieth year. The Angels return after a twenty-five-year absence from the noise we mean, spectacular. Other than following our coverage from the Air Show, the best place to see the action is anywhere along the lakeshore near the CNE. Lakefront at Marilyn Bell Park, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday 12:30–4:30 p.m., FREE or $15 for CNE admission.

                     

On Sunday evening, more than thirty of Toronto's most celebrated chefs congregated in the open air of Yorkville Park for Toronto Taste, Second Harvest's biggest and most lavish fundraiser. Honouring its nineteenth year, the event raised $250,000 in just one night—enough to provide 500,000 meals for people in need. Torontoist was lucky to snag a couple of these hot tickets and chat with some of our city's food glitterati who—despite the challenges of running restaurants in this economy—are continuing to do their part to fight hunger.
