Wild Burger on Mount Pleasant has shuttered. They still have their Whitby location.

Longtime (20 years) dingy yet oddly charming pub the Foxes' Den, on Bay just south of Charles, has joined the choir invisible.

That's too bad. I was there only a month ago. The food never was that good there, but it was always a good go-to spot for a pint in the Yorkville area.

Agreed. In fact I was there two nights before it closed. As I live at Manulife my options for a pint after a walk home are Mullins (not bad but always crowded), Bloor Street Diner (convenient but pricey), Artful Dodger (great place), Firkin on Bloor (bleh, almost makes me miss the Spotted Dick), Duke of Gloucester (hive of scum and villainy), or Burg's (formerly Burgundy's: see Duke of Gloucester). To paraphrase Northrop Frye, the Foxes Den was a good bar to mind your own business.

Banh Mi Boys signage up on Yonge north of Eglinton. Can't wait.

I remember Goldfish--the Annex's first designer restaurant?
Bagel Nash makes a great Montreal-style bagel--so good I ate a dozen of them in 30 minutes. The rest of their bagels suck though.

Nandos Chicken is opening their second downtown location on West Queen West.
Going in on 741 Queen Street West (Queen/Palmerston) where Destingo used to be. Hope they take advantage of that massive patio out front.

Excellent!!! Potbelly is way better than Subway. When I'm in the states, it's my go to fast food place.

'Quantum Burger' is replacing the HERO Burger at Queen and Spadina.
Was hoping for something a bit more interesting. How many burger joints can Queen Street have?

Anything replacing a Hero Burger is fine by me.

Quantum Burger - is that one where you can't ever predict the amount and location of toppings equally accurately?

Le Saint Tropez on King, just west of University has closed. Saw the signs on the way to my barre class this morning.
