Hi,

I 3rd Sister Saigon . . . Try the mustard greens and the eggplant . . . You definitely get a great lunch for under 10 bucks!

I live close by so i've done tons of tasting and I have to say go for Sister Saigon (Yonge, south of bloor). Awsome thai fusion food. Get the curry lamb, very very good.

As mentioned, Yonge and Wellesley has a number of excellent spots. You'll need to provide details to get specifics from there. A Bay Street option is the New Yorker Deli (at Charles on the west side), which has excellent sandwhiches and other quality deli food. I once had a good sandwhich from the place in the basement of the Manulife Centre - Scattia I think it's called.

The New Yorker is pretty good, but their breakfast items (omelettes, etc.) are totally forgettable.

I would recommend walking one street over to Yonge and Wellesley and deciding what type of food you feel like. There are a ton of great little restaurants in this area that are usually fast and cheap. Some examples:

Red & White has great shawarmas,
Yummy's BBQ is good cheap korena food,
next door to that is the Bowl or noodle dishes.
If you want carribean there are a few different ones in the area that all seem to serve the same food and taste good.
Pi-Toms is good thai food,
Koyoto sushi is good for sushi of course.

If you have a craving for something it might be easier to tell you where to go given the type of food that you feel like.

I strongly recommend that you do not go to the cafeteria in the government building. It is a big ripe off for REALLY bad food. You will pay more there then any of the other suggestions I have given you.
