Dinner 101:

How to have great (incredibly cheap) Indian food in Toronto:

1. Pick up Marion and Flora in your car, start driving across town towards Narula's in Little India for Toonie Tuesdays*
2. Suddenly, run out of gas at Sumach and Gerrard Street** (and by "at" I do mean in the middle of that intersection)
3. Get Marion and Flora to push your car out of the intersection, and park
4. Take the streetcar to Little India and eat fabulous food despite adverse conditions
5. Flag a cab, drive around to find gas and bring it to the car
6. Rejoice when the car starts!
7. Get gas at the most ironically titled gas station possible
A classy establishment:

*Non-Canadians, this translates as "cheap"
**Not the most delightful neighborhood (can I say "Ghetto" on the Internet?)

  • US money used to be called "greenbacks" or "lettuce ." In the song "Money" my favorite line is "give me some of those dead presidents."

  • Anna...you wouldn't believe how cheap the food is here! I got a plate full of Indian food from the cateen for 50 cents!! I bet the Canadian Indian food is better than the real Indian canteen though...(plenty of good restaraunts...it's just that the canteen is kind of rock bottom price)
