Seeking info on Winston's restaurant--infamous in Toronto Sun lore--led me to the late Doug Taylor's online history blog.
There, I find the historian's take on dozens of long-gone Toronto restaurants and more pictures than I expected.
Above, Bassel's on Yonge St.
Everybody has a handful of remembered food ghosts.
What's your brain's landmark location for That Lunch
or That Dinner ?
Hired, fired, engaged or thrown out of it?
Did Ed's Warehouse make you wear a moldy jacket?
My three old time-y restaurants are ...
Stoodleigh's on the ground floor of the King St. Toronto Star
Fran's at St. Clair and Yonge
The Pilot Tavern
Yeah, maybe Crooks, the Lord Simcoe's Admirality bar, the Swiss Bear in the Walker House basement, the Four Seasons Motor Inn on Jarvis, the Town Tavern, Brass Rail, the Savarin, the weird corner "men's beverage room" a block east on King St. from the Sun, Spadina Garden, Montreal bistro, Lurch (basement of Hoofers) ... please stop me.
You have three?
