Cheap, quick meal right now?

It's almost 4 p.m. and I want to grab a tasty treat. I have time to go anywhere downtown. I don't want the usual cheap sushi or shawarma places. What do you suggest?

        big thumbs up to this option, love the rapini and truffle sauce topping but no mustard or cheese or other stuff.

        otherwise i'd nab a poutine at great burger kitchen which has split the space with hank's on church.

        or nab some pickeral fish and chips with a side of coleslaw at the one that got away on king west.

        or maybe an order of garlic tofu or squash fitters and fresh rolls from khao san road if you're not super hungry... otherwise curries, noodles etc. (edit: oh wait.. bad rec, they don't serve dinner until 5pm)

        oh lord, or the burger... the damn burger medium/medium rare at gabardine near bay and adelaide.

        my junkier food cravings are kicking in.

            I vote Pho, especially on a cool, rainy day like today. I had a hot pot bulgogi for lunch at Hana Korea on Baldwin, and that really hit the spot.
