Visiting Toronto, this time in November

Me, my spouse, and our kiddo, all Chicagoland-based, will be spending the Thanksgiving break in Toronto visiting our favorite cousins and their bouncing preschooler. We will have some chances to peel off and do things solo and we may all go out together a few times as well. Difficulty level: we've been there four or five times already, so a lot of the classic Toronto tourist stuff is long-since checked off our list. Outside of our regular trip to St. Laurence Market, the goal is to see new stuff.

Stuff we have done and would not likely repeat on this trip: CN Tower, Casa Loma, Rogers Centre, Distillery District/Holiday Market, Ripley's Aquarium, Toronto Island Park, High Park, Edwards Gardens, Allan Gardens Conservatory, Queen Street, Kensington Market, Toronto City Hall, Nathan Phillips Square, Evergreen Brick Works, Yorkville Village, Yonge Street, Ontario Science Centre, Yonge/Dundas Square, and probably a bunch more I am forgetting.

We've visited in nearly all seasons, so there are not likely to be "but if you go in this season" exemptions to the above.

We're staying in Leslieville and will be visiting family who live in Cabbagetown. I did see SkullStore on Atlas Obscura and that looks fun.

We have never hit any of the big museums, because our kid would not have been old enough to enjoy them. He's thirteen now and tolerant of that stuff, but if there is one with some kind of cool hook to draw him in, that would be an easier sell than like classic paintings or tapestries and such.

Kiddo and I like horror movies to the point of obsession. He also adores video games. My partner loves flowers. She does enjoy shopping, but has a very particular vibe, sort of the European small row shop thing, not too hippie and certainly not mass market.

Restaurant recommendations are cool, if there is an entertainment/destination aspect to them. Otherwise, we know nice places close to where we'll be.
