After an entire day of driving around the city, the friend and I ended up in Scarborough. We were starving so decided to go to the closest restaurant in sight. The winner - Jack Astor's. The last time I went to a Jack Astor's was in high school for a provincial election campaign party (reading in between the lines: I don't come here unless I have to). As it was four o'clock, there weren't too many patrons. We were quickly seated.
The food was below average. I ended up finishing everything on my plate, but this was purely due to the fact that I had not eaten all day. The perk (which seems to be the 'norm' for your local chains) is that soft drinks are bottomless. As a Diet Coke lover, I was in heaven.
The last time I checked, Jack Astor's is a family restaurant. Why did I feel as if I was visiting a gentleman's club? I'm sure the honchos in the office have enough money for bigger uniforms... please clothe your employees!
