Some good food in Toronto is Buca, Joso's, Sotto Sotto, Terroni, Jacob's. For NY, Blue Hill, Mr. Chow's, Dadong, momofuku, Chevalier, Boulud. NY has Ferrari, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Koenigsegg, Porsche, RR, etc. No McLaren though.

Gotta find ways to get that $10M foreign Chinese money limit out of the country legally. Don't know if any stores accept it in Taiwan, but surprising amount of stores accept it here. Even supermarkets and restaurants have stuff like WeChat Pay and AliPay. Dealers here aren't as impressive. You probably weren't a F customer at the time Ferrari opened their new centre in Taipei for their 10th anniversary in TW. Kimi Raikkonen was there along w/ LaFerraris in service bays, etc. pretty cool to see their investment.

Ferrari Taiwan does accept UnionPay for deposits but not wechat or alipay. If im not mistaken the limit for unionpay is 150K US dollars for each transaction/day.
