| - The Urban Eatery opened today in the Eaton Centre. Formerly known as the "North" food court, it used to be dark, dingy and questionable at at times. The selection of places to eat was less than fantastic and overall, it was not an enjoyable place to eat.
And now...
It's absolutely beautiful. The ceilings were raised so even though its at the lowest level of the Eaton Centre and two levels below ground, its still feels large and spacious. There's plenty of seating, bar style, tables, and even some booths I think. Clearly, today was opening day (and there were $10 off coupons given out in the days leading up, so it was expectedly nutso busy) and it was very busy around 1, with lineups at every "restaurant" but due to how well the planned the space, I was easily able to navigate through the large crowds to check out all of the eateries they had to offer.
Among the staples, such as McDonalds, A&W and Jimmy the Greek, there are some cool new additions, such as a vegetarian place, a gelato place, some fantastic looking sandwich venues and quite a few interesting places that I am definitely going to check out.
Overall, definitely worth checking out if you work in the area and want something different (or something just the same as usual) and have a nice place to eat and enjoy your meal. If you've never been to the Eaton Centre food court, its worth a look!
