| - Wow, Yorkdale did good.
The new food court at Yorkdale is now called Dine on 3. Who knows what used to be up here, but now (near the Banana Republic and MAC) you'll find yourself in a ultra modern, Urban Eatery like oasis of fast food and restaurants.
Yes, they've added two new restaurants - a Pizzeria and a ramen place. I checked out the menu for ramen, and it's about $8-10. Both have sit down and waiter service. Up here is also Big Smoke Burger, Thai Express, Paloma Gelato, Glow-Express and the usually, but updated facade of KfC, A&W, Jimmy the Greek, Teriyaki Experience etc. There's also an espresso bar yet to be opened that serves Illy Coffee with a loungey area on the 2nd floor.
The ceilings were a bit low, but the place is HUGE. And there is a lounge space and patio to the back of the room. There's not much to look at, but it's nice to have a spot outside. But it's small.
We didn't eat here, but I also found out that there are purse hooks under each table. Sweet!
I think this is a really smart move, as Yorkdale expands with higher end stores etc, this space, I can't wait to eat here, or spend more time in the mall, which I guess is their objective.
Today was their grand opening and they had a live DJ! Worth taking a visit. I wonder what they will do with the old space. I bet Holts will take over.
