In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after food
Scent and a sound. I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf.*
After running the Yonge St 10K in a blistering 47 minutes, I was ready to eat some food. I met my Canadian friend at Aunties and Uncles, only to be told there was an hour wait. Due to my stomach growling like the aforementioned wolf, we needed a plan B. Plan B was to be Maggies, but that didn't work so onto Plan C. According to Yelp, there was a place called the Bellevue that sounded good, but got there and it looked abandoned...newspapers all over the windows. So Plan D was right across the street. KOS Restaurant!
Got a seat right away. Waitress was nice but forgetful. Took a long time to drinks and coffee. Food was good. I had choco chip pancakes (real maple syrup would have been nice rather than the "pancake syrup" stuff in the plastic container) but they were good. My buddy had eggs, toast and bacon and some type of ham which he said they call something else in Canada. It looked good and he enjoyed it. Cocktails were weak.
Prices were reasonable, so I can't complain. Solid food, friendly service. Hey it satisfied my hunger so I was no longer like the wolf. It's A-OK in my book.
