In the beginning, Toronto’s club scene had two gods: Charles Khabouth and Nick Di Donato. After years of one-upmanship (properties like Khabouth’s Ultra competing with Di Donato’s C Lounge and so forth), the rivals joined forces. Their new enterprise, Spice Route, is a resto-bar adorned with artwork and accoutrements befitting a Thai palace (or an episode of Entourage): a giant, hand-carved Buddha statue towers over the host station and a 16‑foot waterfall divides the bar. A plush private dining room serves an Indochinese menu, to be followed by killer cocktails and DJ Julien Nolan’s dance beats two nights a week.
