I am anticipating having a half hour to an hour (possibly) for lunch every day and want to avoid the food court in the mall if at all possible (or if there are especially good offerings there, please let me know!). I am a semi slow walker but a fast eater, on a bit of a budget (lets say I'd like to come in at less than $20 total) and am looking for some good ideas for lunch! Thanks all :) Fri Nov 06 18:28:11 -0800 2009 75965 k8supergrover 1 5162506 Milo's PIta for shawarma and other Lebanese goodies. Food court in Toronto Life centre. Salad King for fast-food style Thai food. Lots of detractors on the board, but lots of people who like it for what it is -- quick, tasty, inexpensive. On Gould St -- one block north of Dundas, 1/2 block east of Yonge. Don't get more than "3 chiles" on their spice scale unless you have a good tolerance for heat. The golden chicken curry is addictive. Coconut Grove for roti. I haven't been there in years, but recent reports suggest it's still good. On Dundas, halfway between Bay and University. Japango for sushi. Apparently the quality has gone downhill, but it used to be one of the better sushi joints in the city. On Elizabeth St., just south of Dundas.

Very informal with cafeteria style home-cooked food. Japango has great sushi.

Otherwise, second Japango and Kenzo's. Sat Nov 07 02:12:43 -0800 2009 5162741 189943 blinknoodle 1 5163121 If you have time, I'd call in your order before you get to the resto!! I find Kenzo isn't all that fast at times. Manpuku is pretty speedy unless you order Takoyaki. I very much like the Jumbo Inari there (rice-stuffed tofu pocket). Btw, The Kenzo address is wrong (non existent, actually) in the chow DB. Kenzo is at 138 Dundas Street West, before Japango. Sat Nov 07 07:50:29 -0800 2009 5162475 14940 jlunar
