I didn't notice that Benny's had closed. It always seems like there are quite a few of the same type of place along that stretch on Weber.

Or older people like me.  I go out of my way to avoid franchise operations anywhere.  So I'm disappointed when folks say the Region needs a Tim Hortons here or a Starbucks there as if that was the measure of successful development in the city.   No.  In my opinion it's places like The Berlin or Bhima's Warung or Almadina that sets this community apart from others.   When I drive down parts of Victoria St. or Fairway Rd it looks and feels like I could be in any Canadian or American city.  Extremely humdrum and uninteresting.
