(Greek dining community section of
Toronto is also concentrated on Danforth
Avenue - just east of Broadview) BEST DAILY FOOD idea PICK - bar none!!
Souvlaki wrap - Lamb, chicken or beef - our Top favourite daily lunch pick (along with Italian or real style
Octoberfest sausage on a bun -
alternatingly between great sausage
and great Souvlaki)!
Souvlaki on pita also includes (besides pork) chicken or
even lamb (better than a steak most places!) optionsMondays are for vacationing seeming at some places (closed mondays) aw (on danforth avenue near chester subway station) Happy hour Souvlaki dinner served 5PM-7PM here!!
Lots of great pork (or chicken) and tasty tzatziki sauce, lovely fresh tomato
Onion plus they even throw in french fries for you for free seeming I'd say!!
Best service experience was found here in all the places as such I tried,
(Christinas on danforth taking top spot with kind service from Herald) also
a young greek woman at aristos sure too has her heart into her profession in
what is our hospitality and service industry as relates to the vital needs for
such best food as souvlaki remains forever more - check out their website too:
click here
by the way, Souvlaki should be served with moist, fresh prepared tender
tasting fire grilled meat, plus generous on tzatziki as we found
it to be here plus at similarly popular spots such as (greek
family owned) golden diner and Frankies on Queen street west,
across from CAMH plus The friendly greek on the danforth.
Souvlaki express used to have great souvlaki always at their old queen
st location, now insist the meat be prepared just as tender as before
$8.95 chicken or pork souvlaki on a pita fresh sliced tomato and white onion slice cuts with tasty tzatziki sauce and tender meat
more below:
ideas for all bars and diner/fine restaurants equally The Greek owned "Golden diner" at Jarvis/Carlton has great (under $20 dinner) Lamb Souvlaki - tastes like enjoying a steak! (cooked over a fire grill) Also
molson Canadian beer is a reasonably priced just
$5 add-on - nothing beats smirnoff if you arent
killin time at a bar and just maybe having a couple
beers instead there.
Krystos is now "Freddy's greek"
148 sumach (near distillery district)
great lamb souvlaki dinner (approx $20)
meat is marinated to be tender when
fresh served!! insist on it being grilled
(mideastern owned - friendly staff)
$15.99 souvlaki lunch special, weekdays at "freddy the greek"
near King and river - nice place for private party
Jimmy the greek franchise at brookfield place on yonge st
downtown food court apparently only boils the chicken
served in their $9.24 (plus tax) souvlaki wraps so not
worth it for taste here.
including your private wedding reception
friendly service attitude, western menu
ideas compatibility throughout best sausage treat in town best taste and value!
(416) 519-3711 - delivery options and eat-in counter
so reasonably priced over having to buy two instead

perk up the taste with some onion and peppers - why
not!! Some Pubs we've seen around have
a beautiful selection of the best songs picked
for jukebox
playing with a modern machine that offers a huge number of such great
songs
from
the 70s (bee gees, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Yvonne Elliman, and tons
more) and with
the best songs from Van Morrison
("Someone like you" / "Have I told
you lately") Christopher
Cross (Arthurs
theme, Ride like the wind), Leann
rimes, ("Cant
fight the moonlight" - discounted
price, plus "Wasted days and
wasted nights") Jackie
Evancho, Andy Gibb (even played a George
strait song - "Amarillo by mornin!" - nice
country selections equally!) You might even blow a twenty
on a
jukebox in that case,
and not live to regret it as it gives a shot in the arm our planet hasn't
had
for just too
bloody long now I say - time to end the abuse with bullshit
so-called music we are
subjected to in a bid to make for stupid applied ideations of so-called "equality" in
such regard as human sanity of actual objective merit historically speaking
as applied to music tastes
and what have you - for gods sakes I submit with care!
Jackie Evancho's best song performances
of traditional great songs were included in
what we found around, - except my most favourite "imaginer" -
although not a song
as well known here - check it out at my music appreciation and download site here:

soda pop here just $1.25
friendly turkish chap who seemed maybe from Ukraine too

Seemingly keeping with some weird idea of a s0-called "Just society"
idea coined by his father - the former PM Pierre trudeau, young Justin
Trudeau seems hell bent on dope joints replacing all former starbucks
locations perhaps, while saying NO to a single bottle of molsons Canadian
beer or johnnys mini 200ml sherry at your more favourite sausage vendor
stand. now how much sanity is there in that either I say of this trudeau era
regime
My favourite drink pick here is johnny bootlegger grape
(sherry style $2.75/bottle offering 11.8%
alc content)
Love molson's

a person of

might be able to do
so.
refreshment
stands including movie
theaters

parks and street cart
vendors plus
every

best
beer choices if you dont see any alternative
picks around such as a lovely bottle of smirnof ice
(cooler) or port/sherry fortified or shiraz
flavour wine
The beef is curry-like tasty when served fresh
and prepared in sauce. if sits too long tastes
not as good - dry looking. Plus outside of
tuesday, you have to pay for two at a time
for approx $9 combined with no option to
mix and mtch between beef and chicken choices
etc. best taste remains at taco bell consistently.
Marche leo's on front st east sometimes has tasty breaded fish on buffet
- quite inexpensive compared to "reliable fish and chips" (founded 1930) for
instance
The Scotland yard pub (on the esplanade downtown still gets top pick vote on
this
one addiionally for the best under $20 "english style" fish and chips taste
treat)
Just recently had the home made quality burger hare
at souvlaki express - never had a better burger - plus
was only ten bucks for a complete meal with a soda pop

offerings in various flavours too - such as "jerk", regular BBQ
tandoori, peri peri (presidents choice from loblaws)
and more!
cost based on weight at self serve bar
The best tasting drink wherever liquor is to be found
to be had - smirnoff - I even then prefer port wine if
available though! (Plus molson beer in pint draft size)
available by the whole case too on

Family treat take-out available cheap at select supermarkets-

Nice way to add flavour to plain meats - bbq sauce!!
seasoned appropriately for taste, adding some
cilantro etc in too, "shish/seekh kababs" (beef skewers)
have made it into western (bbq idea) recipe books
equally it would appear) yum! (sliced spanish onion
and firm, yet ripe, red tomato slices too on the side)
plus hot
sauce! (tabasco etc)
Lovely idea for tender steak bites in garlic
sauce
as an appetizer or main course with
a side
perhaps such as pasta or potato
(video above)
Delicious chicken curry expertly made
Western dish alternatives to "curry" do abound deliciously!!
Hungarian Goulash is a popular western standard
which replaces curry as a mainstay on menus
more
extant around restaurants in europe, but not yet
sufficiently so around toronto and
related areas - beef skewers with light seasonings re a great meal idea plus
hearty beef chili too
(video above)
Comedian Mr. John Pinette decries salt levels in KFC style
chicken offerings
metro deli has best supply of 1/4 peppery chicken ("jerk flavour")

No place yet found in this town with good enuf jerk pork quality
(as pictured if you please)
(video above)
Comedian John Pinette - Salad aint no food!
nice salad
ideas include
lots of fresh tomato, white
onions cucumber and even greek cheese
a side offering of sauteed sweet peppers perks up
almost any food in the main
Cucumber with onion and just ripened tomato!! yeah!!
Sauteed mushrooms on the side anyone?
(bacon or bacon crumble style of bacon if offered here
too - is a nice pick of topping too)
You'll find Pizza this good only likely at Pizza
Nova
(Broadview/Queen), maybe also check out pizzaville
too -
don't let pizza nova ruin your perfect pizza
by overcooking as the chain owner likes his own idea
of "well done" when clearly it comes out overcooked
I found when I hadn't even requested the longer cooked
style - just normal cooked to perfection is the way to go
at pizza nova - unbeatable pizza by the (huge) slice or
whole!! love it even more when the cheese has a real rich
taste to it as I've lucked into at times trying around
such places
The "Roy Public House Pub"
has butter chicken curries on
the menu as
"east ender" curry. Stick to the mild version
here!
(mouth on fire having tried their "spicy" version years
back) otherwise quite a nice enuf pick on the menu here.
at queen street east at
logan avenue (just next door

offering for
real success on this one
(tandoori quarter chicken or tandoori chicken marsala
a-la carte).
tender beef Cooked with oil, pepper slices along with onion all result in
great taste packed in to draw in crowds with
best take-out value in downtown area
of toronto
Does your shopping centre food court have a
"bourbon street grill" outlet
as of yet? why not press for one if not already so. check freshness quality
when traffic is slow (meats not as tender after sitting a while after
being cooked I find) nice tasty spicy food pick options here too
options include a generous serving of spicy or regular
grilled shrimp -
A two meat one veggie along with rice or noodle combo at
Bourbon street grill at Eaton Centre (best taste and value
of any competing such offerings out there) is $12.50 plus tax
(just add bbq sauce as shown to the rice) the food otherwise
has lots of flavour and with nicely done tasty sauce in too
(Bourbon Street Grill - eton centre) Lousiana style cajun
foods along with sweet-sour type offerings from abroad.
A family size container offering of this tasty treat goes
for just a twenty dollar bill (tax included) at gerrard
square
food court as an outlet there offers similar menu
items
here too.

The hi-light of my sojourn to the area of Toronto known as "little Italy"
was the discovery of this great western style bar with such nice food as:
Fantastic looking burger and fried potato dish - on my way home I also
went past a familiar looking large church structure of the main Ukrainian
church with this sign posted outside:
$14.69 full combo meal as
shown
If you love perogies like a few people I know
or want the taste of ukrainian sausage we
have travelled for these years past, try them
at http://heavenlyperogy.ca or maybe even
drop in and purchase at this church hall.
I never missed "Taste of the danforth"
over some years now (Greek festival
with lotsa reasonably priced tasty
souvlaki - shows generous community
spirit too however it was cancelled due
to red tape when previous mayor tory
was in his "lame period" of term in office
Marusya's Ukrainian and Polish foods lovely decor
items offered at lunchtime today included shaslyk
"kebab" dinner ($25 including your choice of sides)
Located a few steps from the Jane subway - a
Ukrainian (mainly) delicious treat ofering you
wont wanna be left out of. Enjoy! (Breakfast
shown below)
Italian
style grilled cheese -
that's the way its unbeatable!!
Generously filled deli meats wrap
- Italian style!!
Top idea too for quick lunch - sausage on a bun/croissant!!
My most fav quick
food too
by
far!! (a "good souvlaki" is next)
forget bagels - croissants are a more
tasteful idea!!
located on Queen street at Logan somewhat across from TD
(Served fresh from a warmer in foiled warp - ideal too for theaters
and airport counters at bulk discount from here) (Honey Garlic)
Served with carmelized onions and dijon mustard
More flavours and in-stock quantities
usually found at the popular metro at
front and church (great hot deli foods
counter and fresh desserts bakery too)
Great tasting food! fried Beef and sweet peppers with onions - with
tasty black bean sauce
Kobassa (the real stuff as offered by brands like
"Brandt" plus "Pillers" too) is the best
tasting such
great
quality sausage meat to be found.
Brandt (my fav)
also offers
a spicy (powdered chili sprinkled on) version for
multicultural
appeal as it were, while both have
ham or turkey
options for
kobassa - tasting similar
yet allowing
for non pork preferrers
to enjoy kobassa "equally"!!
Aroma espresso bar offerings:
shown below is my fav way to see such a breakfast served
- even has gourmet toasted rye bread option and generous
cuts
of ham slices (lovely sausage if you prefer - or even bacon)
back bacon is a much better way to go over strip bacon
for breakfast sandwich offerings by the way, and ham
should always be an option to replace bacon for a side
offering with breakfast - eggs benedict style is tops!!
Tim's more recently had a mini breakfast sandwich
with back bacon instead. $2.99 Now thats more like it!
French style eggs benedict servings out there! yah!
Paddington's Restaurant and Pub at
St Lawrence Market - by the main entrance
Paddington's menu variety plus all the molsons
Guinness / Smirnoff/ Wines beer
and other such
ideas as you
could possibly handle!! Greek owned
- Lovely special Irish service along the way too ("Stevi") - Complete eggs and ham/sausage or bacon with fries
breakfast - A nice $10.95
(available "all day" - 9AM- 7PM TUE-FRI) (8AM-5PM SAT-9AM-5PM SUN)
ice fresh Orange juice option too and select service to be well worth
giving a nicest tip for
Paddington's Eggs benedict on extra tasty peameal bacon
- yum!
Crowds drawn to Popular Paddingtons Pub (Lots more
seating) - sometimes a line up but worth the short wait!
Future Bistro - West just past Spadina
on Bloor (Near the subway station)
Future Bistro's Breakfast eggs combo - lots of choices in
omelettes
and more (try
the "all day" grillwurst sausage dinner too if you prefer to) Liquor licenced
Popular place at queen street east on parliament. Been here many years
Nice service along the way. Seemingly Italian owned too - ciao folks.
(Popular Owner Terry Papas pictured) famous quote
by terry:
"in this neighbourhood, you could buy an Italian specialty coffee
for even five bucks or why not just $2.10 for a regular cup
from a guy who only kinda 'looks Italian' instead" (Terry that is

or at spadina on queen st West - fantastic ham steak

no xtra charge. add $1 for regular fries instead of
"homefries".
popular
snack offering we should adopt
into mainstream
I say! $2.25 ea
soft breaded lightly fried mutton rolls
As good quality as was
previously offered at "Russi's" on king st.
complimentary tamarind
sauce included. This is a truly great
item of appetizer appeal or
even a good meal if you have a few
(Pick from mutton, chicken, fish
or veggie rolls options offered
here)
Although not quite the same size of treat, the "montreal
smoked meat" snack shop next to gerrard square can
cook these up fresh there too if need be or on request
only takes a few minutes in the deep fryer - $1.95 ea
or $5.50 for three with tamarind sauce on request.
Owned by a frenchman from france
A few other spots these are also available (though differently
made somewhat with less potato filling flavouring blended in
include:
Wing machine bar and restaurant on parliament street
up from gerrard next to "no frills"
also at a food outlet at "village by the grange" food court
275 dundas st west entrance is close to 52div police station
Somewhat spicier yet certainly too enjoyable version here:
(freshly to order - their spicy chicken rolls come in at $1.50)
while they do offer mini samosas here - its not their forte -
stick to these great rolls instead - if you dont mind it spicy
here
yellow curry flavour version chicken roll @logan

a delicious Smirnoff (with ice) at this bar. red lobster
would be a nice place to go find some tender beef
burgers mainly - why not eh!!
Kobasa sausage on a bun (available at Cosco whosalers)Halibut fish is advertised as made fresh for you at The Greek owned
"Golden Diner" on Carlton street near Yonge st - great lamb souvlaki too
A&W (just $2.80 buddy
burger) nice tasting
burger at a nice price. add more for cheese or
added beef patty. Real fresh beef taste with mayo
and carmelized onion toppings included.
Great way to serve coke, orange juice
real
lemonade or what have you in a large chilled
mug at
reasonable price. that's the way to see it
done folks! meat quality simply superior to mcdonalds
harveys, wendys etc on burgers we tried there.
plus great value overall on these picks at a&w
nicer fixturing than
macdonalds etc plus far better
value and
taste over harveys and
wendys burgers too) tasty sausages -
not too
oily or salty tasting like
so many such ideas around
town
A&W
special grass fed beef quality
'56 mama" A&W burger along the way
A&W beef burgers beat ALL other large burger chains for quality mama burger $3.99
(or $4.99 with cheese)
manager special at participating locations
(such as on church street at
shuter across from henry's photoprint shop"
Participating locations offer
two great mama burgers with cheese
for $7.99 or $8.99 - add 25 cents each
for lettuce, same thing for tomato etc (A&W Open 24hrs for "take-out only after late nite"
d/t plus at
many of their
such other locations)
TIM HORTONS FARE
Tims has a tasty cheesy topped (or plain)
croissant that tastes like a delicate pastry
all the way through, ask for it (microwave)
heated and buttered. price recently increased
to $2.49 plus tax from the previous $1.69 plus
tax not so long ago still seeming now.
Tims has great offerings still in other nice quality items such
as
their fresh baked apple fritter, sour cream (sweet) glazed
donut, boston cream and fruit explosion muffin offerings
all around a reasonable $1.49 plus tax. Best prices in town
(egg-less at this price of course - unless
you also purchase coffee - special price
combo will then include regular sandwich
with sausage or bacon along with med
std coffee for around $5)
tims great tasting french vanilla capuccino
its the best coffee idea in town for actual great taste
except for a nice "double sugar double cream iced coffee
which I love best -
why not have it available everywhere -
many coffee vending
machine operators do have this amazing
flavour available
but rarely with adequate enough french
vanilla coffee
powder, so tastes poor instead - waste! tim's
version
Beats plain tasting, and even more expensive coffee
ideas, thats fer shure for me!!
McDonalds has everyone beat on the taste of their dark
roast offee special - and its even just a buck (sm) now!!
Mcdonalds sausage mcmuffin value menu price
is a reasonable just $2.79
Tim's previously have offered a great creamy thai soup
(NOT their can version however - skip its taste fer shure)
None of the can soup brands sold are good value anyway,
buy fresh
(fresh made tims thai soup when available / ham sandwich is
great here) some or maybe all Tims franchise / company locations
don't have
mustard available at last check, or fresh (spanish)
sliced onions etc tut tut
Tims fresh (artisan) ham and cheddar sandwich on
a bun $5.99 plus tax -
Comes with ranch suce included
- other sauce picks
plus jalapenos available as xtras
unbeatable around this price level!! (ask for it grilled)
7-11 does have schneiders quality hot dogs
but insist you buy two to get the deal, they
eve take this crazy approach on pop as do
many mideastern shawarma places in town!
(See the better deals on such food instead here
further below)
Fresco has ready to heat in microwave 8 inch subs
including pizza meat version for just $3.49
everyone should have access to a microwave
at work to bring lunch from home
subway six inch black forest ham sub $4.99
(plus tax) only when on special or with coupon.
prefer tims
version instead or buy a plain
croissant
and a thick slice of ham at your deli
counter
enjoy a $5 instant sandwich that way
with tons
of meat.
plus 20 cents tax on a $4 purchase its 5% tax -
no tip here usually
too
Tim's mini roast beef sandwich with cheese
use this idea at any deli counter offering fresh
looking sliced meats cut to order per 100 gms
Wendys$4 breakfast combo deal
(combo deal on now) wendy's has a tastier such
breakfast
sandwich
- plus giveaway seeming
pricing
special
regularly $4.29 each now $4 for two
sandwiches or a sandwich with best potato wedges or
coffee (plus just 20 cents tax at this $4 tier)
Plus all fast food chains must be legislated to protect the
environment by stopping the B.S. lip service to making real cups
mugs, glasses and plates available as billions of paper products
are filling up our landfills as they just don't "get it" when it comes
to right minded service hospitality in such affairs, however that
should not allow abuse of the planet which is still ours as surviving
human beings you must be aware of as so concerned of course, still.
Plastic or paper bags should be routinely provided whenever it
would be sane to do (without having to first "beg" fer crissakes man!!)
wanna preach on this go to those areas of the planet where billions
of wasted bags potentially are instead somewhat ignored by lefties
music in restaurants and shopping malls, supermarkets etc
must be supremely well picked for good taste such as Richard
clayderman and ray coniff, plus britney spears plus such added
picks as jennifer Lopez even and whitney houston billy ocean and
lionel richie even. Cut the crap with the shit they are putting
on instead that are "brain dead" and therefore predatory with
sound therapies to "retard the human spirit" which survives in
better idea of "what is good and fair to do" instead for all.
Delicious flavour!!
now back at
metro
supermarket
lovely flavour
(creamy)
thai chicken soup (western
style and quality flavour
certainly)
should be offered everywhere as the main soup every time you stop in for
lunch or snack or beer etc drink
$3.99 for reg size
plus 20 cents tax
(also at select
loblaws delis
and longos -
spicy version
here maybe?)
prefer metro taste and longos
generous
chicken
Creamy ham and potato
Should have lotsa ham and smaller matching cuts
of potato - have the tobasco or similar hot sauce on
the ready for more of a kick to the taste certainly!Loblaws $3.99 and up lobster bisque offering is now a bit shy
on flavour - but is generous sized an offering and a real
treat at this price anyway likely. (Lower jarvis st. location)
help yourself to the thai creamy chicken soup fer shure
before they run out each day
best
food court
choice all around
pick!! have a location in your food court
too at various malls
and major office
buildings too - why not? Or why not
"asian grill" from Gerrard square
location example - same food ideas -
even better, more generous taste
value
Eaton Centre location plus others
get it fresh made here whenever available
as usually is found available here (24 hours)
Metro
sausage rolls pick
(open late 11PM etc - check for
location hours/availability)
Lets have more such creative style offerings
for breakfast
everywhere eh
The only way to cook
bacon so it doesn't seem like
dog biscuits it is that your crunching on instead
Bacon has to be cooked SOFT - not crispy or it aint
worth eatin, let alone payin for for crissakes!
done right (completely soft) its delicious stuff!
great eggs benedict here too - open on so-called holidays too
now that's so bloody sane an idea for this finally town too!!
(d/t Esplanade location now closed down, open instead
at bell trinity square- behind eaton centre downtown)
(or head east a few blocks to st lawrence cafe also on the esplanade)
Just under fifteen bucks for a full litre of "Port" (Tawny 84) @LCBO!! my fav!!
If you own a restaurant, best deal on great shiraz red wine glass
offerings are made even more possible by Fronterra from Chile ($17.95
Cdn/
1.5L)
"Port" is now used for fortified wines specifically from Portugal
as they have the name "Portu" reserved - its simply "fortified wine"
by whatever such name elsewhere made, in either
"Port" (my fav) or Sherry" flavour offerings
An approx ten dollar bottle of 750ml Local made "Port" is simply the best
deal on (fortified wine) alcohol at the liquor store - period!!
(Other Imported Port/Portu brands expensive by comparison here)
Helluva discovery - mini bottle -
great "Sherry like" taste at
an unbeatable $2.75 price
Check Ontario beer stores or LCBO shelves for stock
(its all the drinks Ive been buyin here for months
- so they may therefore just be sold out - ha ha - just kiddin)
pick up lotsa molsons or
labatts 7%
busch bullet (supreme!!)
Delicious octopus salad treat at metro deli on
mutual street
- firm texture similar to lobster treat even
www.eurocoalition.org"Bourbon Street Grill" Unbeatable for taste and sheer value - amazing
amounts of food in huge selections including spicy beef, garlic or cajun shrimp,
Bourbon chicken (specialty here) and lots more with great tasting lotsa sides
to pick from - all fresh made - around ten bucks for a combo - my fav deal here!
- check for end-of-day specially pre-made combos too - around seven bucks to go!
maybe Also try the food court at Gerrard Square Mall (near pape) for similar
food but with less taste
tasty tender BBQ Duck slices in sauce
Nice looking branch with flags of friendship
TD did a great job in sponsoring the festivities in the Italian
section on college street during the 2022 festival season
celebrations - ta and grazie equally folks!!

Other truly Great food ideas
you must try!
e,
This is the way lamb chops can be done instead folks!!
(the lamb chops could also be substituted with pork chops if
rightly done and cheaper)
the best tasting shawarma
(mideast style chicken wrap)
seems to be the spicy
(chicken) shawarma offering from
paramount's brookfield place location
(freshest ingredients
incl fresh vegetables
plus sauces)
181 bay street entrance or enter from yonge street
This hugely popular d/t food court is completely
packed at peak times
Enjoy a Kafta kabab wrap or beef or
(regular or spicy chicken) wrap here!!

generous filled (beef or chicken or mix of both)
is to be found here at a franchise chain
called "german doner kabab" founded in 1989
has locations around the world including european locations
such as in sweden plus new york etc etc.
great tasting wrap called "the original"
is worth it compared to other doner offerings in this town
$13.80 plus add $5 for combo of large fountain drink
plus french fries in your choice of flavour (curry style etc)

Leo's lunch buffet menu (priced by weight - approx $11 per pound)
bbq wings plus best tandoori when fresh with tasty sauce included

(closes early at present)
#1 pick here!!
$6.99 Molsons etc beers available here
(laziz) $3.50 for plate of 4 samosas)
on Dundas st 1/2 block east of church st
delicious
Boneless chicken curry "haandi style"
western friendly flavoured
$10 at
sam's on river street
up from dundas near gerrard
heated up in a minute while you wait
also great mutter paneer
veggie curry option here
(great butter chicken curry - $10)
This would be a great add-on to western menus
that offer butter chicken additionally too etc
just chicken biryani rice option
too for $7.99 with chicken pieces mixed in
closes at 6am and then opens at noon
Not the best quality of rice and meat but a better
offering than most biryani style dishes which
have mainly just rice without saving much over a nicer curry rice
selection offering instead
Nicely done best here at king's place
This is a nice burger with hand cut fries fresh made combo deal
its at city hall on queen street just a few steps past bay towards york
st
sausage cart vendor #944 price is a friendly $6.99 inclusive of tax
or even better:
pick from Italian German or polish sausage options
naan and kabab house has a succulent half tandoori
dinner offering to which you can add a beef skewer too if desired. great
value either way
416-972-6623
(kabab sauce
etc on the side
for the rice)
(we recommend
this location
only as quality
may vary at
related
locations)
naan and
kabab house
(yonge st d/t)
has a "waziri" dinner including tandoori chicken skewer plus a
skewer of beef, along with rice, salad
and pita bread
offering. quite
reasonably priced. While turkish kabab skewer dinners
and similar
koobideh Kabab
skewer dinners
at persian
restaurants
do offer some
appeal too
certainly, its
often pricier
and not with
as much taste
and side sauce
as these two
afghan picks noted here above all
other such
picks
Persian style "koobideh"
Deliciously fresh made dual beef skewer Turkish kabab dinner plate $20
for complete
meal as shown - Kismet restaurant (fine dining - lotsa seating for your
party or group)
near Broadview on queen st
(uber delivery too)
Kismet also has the
best tasting beef
(adana kabab) wrap of
nicest ingridients and
lovely beef quality -
$16.99 including fries
and soda
pop
(ask for
a glass certainly too)
skip the
hot sauce
option, just get a dash
of it on the side.
Bring a date along for
this too or why not
enjoy with family
and friends
too - as
many whole chickens
etc as
to feed your
entire group!
Armenian cuisine looks
similarly enticing as turkey, iran, Russia,
afghanistan pakistan!!
Polish and Ukrainian diets also include Kapusta
(cabbage/sauerkraut with sausage pieces)
"The New Yorker Deli" restaurant at Bay and bloor in Toronto
offers a variety of smoked meat sandwiches and more. Just love the large
Orange juice (fresh squeezed for just a four dollar price plus tax)
great
euro spirited waitress often!
Japanese
village
restaurants across
Canada is a popular
place for a "cooked
at your table" experience
in tasty cuisine
such as teriyaki
steak and shrimp
and more! Ths aint yucky sushi food
instead, thats fer shure! (No longer
in Toronto? real shame!)
For more tasty takeout, consider
spadina st. (west) Chinatown section
or on broadwiew at Gerrard (west side) for mainly just great BBQ duck by
the pound - only around five bucks a meal in days gone by...
get in on tasty (though pricey) ginger sauce with this then
even more tastier item
Shrimp lo-mein with jumbo shrimp and fresh tasting
veggies and sauce on the spaghetti
(video above)
would be nice with sriracha sauce
garlic shrimp in creamy sauce - western recipe
food idea
Thai curries could offer great tasting
curries with even
more
menu compatibility with western fare - check around
recently featured at "oriental grill" at
gerrard square (pape & gerrard, halfway between east chinatown and
"little india" -
Their daily specials always include the
great "bourbon
chicken" combo lunch offerings too
($10) (one of the best food deals on "the planet") gerrard square food court location only - quality at their
related
chain location d/t not the same as we found here -
shown below is their spicy beef or shrimp option - plus several
more
choice options to select from here (all at $10 for combo
with rice or noodle along with generous meat dish serving)
Also based at the gerrard square food court is
just opened "La sani" grill. $13.95 for a dual kabab
combo as shown (incl rice with green salad
combination) the place has much potential here
no doubt yet comes up short at this time on fresh
taste quality as the beef skewer seemed re-heated
from the night before likely. Oh well, live and learn
personally dont like this choice of salad especially
prefer cole slaw with tons of mayo mixed in for taste
instead, plus the rice could be even better tasting
with naan (buttered and fresh toasted) option too.
(Weekdays only - specify only mild spice level - nice taste!!)
had a tasty chicken dish here
recently (Thai basil chicken)
in a tasty sauce - $6.95 plus tax for just the curry dish -
opted for no side dish like rice or noodles.
Shown below are food ideas we picked up
on facebook featuring great looking Greek
cuisine from a greek place called "Skara"
the pork looks particularly enticing, with
fresh onion and tomato to go along with the
fixins that come with the great looking pork
Unbeatable dollarama (or
walmart pepsi mini pack deal)
also available in 7up flavour
Some pepsi brandbottles do not clearly show
when "sugarless" version fer crissakes man!!

workshop
stuff
- all under $5
you'd be amazed at
what that
might buy you here!)
Folks using food delivery services
such as uber, skip the dishes etc
are in fact paying for this service
through possibly higher prices for
portion size, and directly related
added "service fees" which may be
levied in addition to the actual
amount touted as "delivery fee".
Best deal is always on pick-up
or dine in. Or to use the restaurants
own delivery service as its a cheaper
way usually, despite still costing more
for having delivery than if you could
arrange for pick-up and get the food
home still hot and fresh or re-heat
without severe loss of fresh quality.
its only makes sense that delivery has
to be paid for - just need the real cost
up-front
no-frills and
freshco have daily low prices
on "Simply
brand"
favourite brand quality juices -
lemonade along with "classic tropicana"
(also minute maid brand or
Presidents choice)
and orange
juice
etc - best sugar-free
drink
alternative
(if you really
havta)
is ice cold sprite
No-frills is best for 2l pop in brand name choices
or generic
brand prices. Best selections of pop
available in town are here
My own best pick is the Lurisia flavoured offering
of bottled Limonata from Italy - served chilled.
Most popular brand is the San pellegrino variety
mainly - great stuff!! has concentrated orange juice blended in for
great overall added taste enhancement
experience!!
Best limonata brand
of Italy!!
San Pallegrino Limonata regular priced
at $7.50 / six pack at some supermarkets
An alcohol spiked version would be nice especially
too!
Top choice for best
orange juice deal!
