      It’s been ages since I’ve been , but I used to work near Chinatown and Ba Le Sandwich shop had Vietnamese subs for $2. That was 15 years ago and I’m sure they’re not a twonie anymore, but gosh they were good and every time I went half the office would hand me their twonies and ask me to get them one.

    The Fritou Chicken is pretty killer! Very crispy, and the spicy chicken is especially good. Not insanely hot, just a nice kick to it with great flavor...
    I went through MANY years, recently even, where EVERY time I was downtown, I would head home via Knight street just to drive by it and see if any of the day-old pack had bear claws in them.
    There were times I'd get 3 bear claws plus 2-3 other odd donuts mixed in for something like $4-$5... insane!!
    If there were NO day-olds, I'd still be grabbing a few pieces of chicken to take home. It was a no-lose situation 😋
