Could be


However,

I know if a story where an $80 tenderloin (8-10oz) at a nice restaurant in TO is the same meat that I could (at the time) get for less then $20 from WM.
Just as the $200 Wagyu was the same meat as the $80 direct.

Seems rather extreme; Restaurants don't usually turn much profit on the food. It's the liquor sales.

Throw a boat bbq on where the top box normally mounts. Crankcall probably has some.

There's a local guy with a grille mounted to his r6. Group kebabs at yonge and Dundas sq are not uncommon.

Blue Bloods (Casa Loma)
Hys (Bay & Richmond)

Also exceptional interior spaces

I really miss the old Hy's location. The new place may look more modern, but the old place just felt more opulent. I loved the fireplace that was a window into the kitchen, and the back room just oozed excess.

It was my first time there.
It is really nice inside.

Might be a good spot for a date night.

La Castille is classic old school fine dining in an old mansion. If you liked that, The David Duncan House is very similar. There used to be a whole bunch more but slowly disappearing over time.

I don't think you can eat there. Just pick up.

Unless you like raw meat. You can it in the parking lot.

Sorry, may not have been clear. I meant after Tims, go there, pick up a couple steaks and toss them into the tank bag and rip it home to the bbq.

When they sell it by the case, well, not so suitable for motorcycle transport and its no longer just a single day's dinner.

Yup.

Enjoyed the vibes and food at both spots.

In my younger days I did a ton of travel on the company dime, good steakhouses were my favorites. Hy’s across Canada were always good, and in the 80s and 90s, like most fine restaurants flashing an Amex Platinum card got you a table on the spot without a reservation.

There’s only one fine steakhouse in the GTA where I can get a private gangster level room. The boozy, cigar-smoke filled final course makes the steakhouse experience so complete.

I love the idea of closing out a day of riding by tailgating in the Tim's parking lot on a busy bike night, but not sure how well that would be received by the tenants (especially Tim's and Firehouse Subs).
