I used to go to grab dinner at the Ghazale on Bloor next to the theatre formally known as The Bloor cinema often, and it was always kind of a cluster fuck. It was continuously worth it, though, because their foods are impossibly fresh.
Enter the College location! I popped in for some eats after a few drinks at a nearby choir concert (yes, you read that right). I was walking home and determinedly typing "falafel" and "shawarma" into my Yelp app and this Ghazale popped up. Aaaaaaahhh. A beacon of light.
Same incredibly fresh toppings, soft chicken and not greasy falafel. Same funny guys behind the counter putting together your wraps and up-selling you on delicious extras. Best of all, it wasn't crowded with drunk people (aside from me) or running-late movie-goers. Tada.
