I have to admit that I am unfamiliar with all of them, but then I am not really a foodie. If it has good basic non-fancy food, it’s good enough for me. On the other hand, how about one of the restaurants in Little India, such as Siddhartha? 🙂 ---

I’ll be in Tokyo until the 24th, so clearly my vote doesn’t count. But, perhaps I can offer the benefit of my experience in organizing past Toronto 'fests: Successful venues used so far: Armadillo’s, Lone Star Grill, Tortilla Flats (sensing a pattern?!?), C’est What, Montana’s (John & Richmond location) Not-so-successful venues: Alice Fazooli’s, Joe’s This is probably not necessary to say, but if you’re choosing a Saturday, make sure you choose a venue that takes reservations. ---

C’est What sounds like a really fantastic idea, actually. Who votes we meet there? _g_ (We’ll miss you, Cerowyn! :() ---
