Been going to Mona's for years.. this is my go-to place in Toronto for true West Indian food. This isn't fast food.. this is home cooked goodness. I always grab a few doubles and a curry chicken with some paratha.. everything is so fresh, my mouth is watering just typing this out.
Tips: this is a pure take out place! No seating.. enter on the left, order.. pick up your order and pay on the right.
My favourite part is watching the ladies in the back make all those paratha.. you walk in and it smells like mom's house.. or at least.. somebody's mom's house.
Ok.. you're not West Indian.. but you have a Trinidadian friend from school.. and you used to go over to his house to play Super Nintendo.. and you're really excited because you've been wanting to check out Super Mario World because you beat Super Mario 3 but always felt World 9 was missing something. But instead of playing SNES, you walk in and his mom offers you some doubles and you forget all about Mario and Yoshi and the cape flying thing.. you eat til you're stuffed and you say "Thanks [friend's mom name]".. yeah, that's the mom's house that this place smells like.. and her name is Mona.
