| - I, too, have a thing for greasy food at all hours, as well as jukeboxes. The food here is good, but never quite spectacular. But that's not what it's about, right? It's about the comfort food, and the comfort of food. Items like lasagna, macaroni and cheese and burgers have, at some time, provided me with both. Although I must say that in the immediate aftermath of having the best lasagna in my life (in NYC's Little Italy), choosing here to satisfy the residual craving only bred disappointment.
Whatevs, it's a Toronto institution, y'all. You've got to go sooner or later. The two locations are quite different from each other, the College St. one being appropriate for late-night philosophizing, and the Shuter St. one being particularly awesome after a concert at Massey Hall.
This brings me to my most recent and quite memorable visit, post- Smashing Pumpkins as well as immediately post-Obama victory! I of no cable got to enjoy a side of historical television with my burger (which is far better than the relatively small salad you can subsititute for fries, for relatively too much money). Now that is what I call change we can believe in (I don't really know what that means).
