If you're from Thornhill (Like I am) Golden Star is pretty much a staple. It's the first place aside from the Tim Hortons parking lot that you go to hang out when you get your license. Anytime I go home to visit the parental units my younger sibling tends to suggest g-star. This place SCREAMS greasy spoon, but my oh my is it spectacular. My regular order is a standard burger, fries and a pop. This runs about $10 which is about the price you pay for a burg combo in the city these days. The home made beef patties are out of this world! There is JUST the right amount of grease which is sopped up by the super fresh bun which is instantly soggy after the first bite.
I swear this is the reason why I have such a soft spot for diner/ homestyle food. Truthfully it's places like this that are the reason why I never cook.
