It could be spinnier.  (Let's go wind.  Help a brother out.)

Yes, this is a weird place.  (Mexican food + asian owners + halal ingredients = Taco King)

The nachos with guacamole were very good, but oddly presented (we "ate in").  Rather than serving them on a flat plate with the beans and quac on the side, they…More »

Yearning for the days that you could eat your breakfast with a side of tobacco smoke?  Yearn no more.  The proprietor (and/or some of his friends) stand on the sidewalk right outside the open doorway and smoke in between orders.  Ooops, is that the…More »

Hmmm, this is a tough one.  I guess when one is motivated to review due to a bad experience, bias is bound to occur.  I'll try to be objective.

1st baguette purchased here.  Bad...doughy and soft crust.
2nd baguette purchased here (2nd chance).…More »

What can I add to 42 reviews?  Oh...this.

Me (on first flight with Porter*); "It must be that flight attendant's first day, she looks so happy".
My wife (frequent flyer on Porter); "They always look like that!"

Nuff said?

Not quite.  I offer this slogan…More »

There are dozens, if not hundreds of Indian restaurants in Toronto, and this is certainly one of them.

I met 3 friends here for breakfast this morning, but if I tell you about the food or decor, I'm afraid I'd be "burying the lead". This place has snails, and I don't mean as a menu item! My friend came back from the ladies room and told us there was a…More »

My wife and I had to be in the area, so decided we'd try this 40-year corned beef institution for BREAKFAST.

Our advice?  Don't!

Unless you miss the atmosphere of your high school lunchroom in-between lunch periods, don't.

Unless you like tasteless,…More »
