Muya is good, but it's Ethiopian. Was EAC Ethiopian as well? I had assumed Kenya/Tanzania, but that may have been a poor assumption.
This should be in the restaurants thread, right? EAC had food that I recognized as Ethiopian, although I've never had food from Kenya or Tanzania.

Is Northern Thai about to close? I recall the building was for sale earlier, and now there is a renovation building permit issued for the building:
Quote:Permit is for interior alterations to an existing restaurant to add a new shawarma station including new hood and fryer

A user in another forum said: "EAC update: decided to call Afework (the owner) and he says they're just putting in new windows and such. They'll be open later this week. He's also looking at taking over the other space to open an East African grocery store. So, good news!"
I don't know who this person is any more than I know who most of you are, which is to say generally reliable members of the local community. So it could be BS, and this is all internet rumour-mongering, but I have fairly high confidence.

I'll be heartbroken if this is the case. Please someone say it's not so

I see that Langdon Hall has been ranked #5 on this year's list of the 100 best restaurants in Canada. Unfortunately, it is the only restaurant in the Region to make the list.

DTK San Francisco Panini has closed; there's a bailiff notice in the window that the locks have been changed.

Well, they really didn't last very long. I was just thinking yesterday that they might need to adapt to reduce overlap with La Cucina. But it appears that this is no longer an issue.

On the top 50 bars in Canada, Arabella Park came in at #46, the only local entry.
This was from the same site that lists the top 100 restaurants in Canada.

Nothing on their website or Facebook page to indicate that they are not open.

Looked in the front window last night and it looked like a LOT was happening in there. Maybe they were doing things on their closed day, but it looked pretty intense otherwise.

They must have done them intensely as they were open for business last night.

That's a little bit closer, but we really need a decent Indian restaurant in DTK ...
