Revolver Pizza in Mimico
Just before the pandemic lockdowns started back in March 2020, a new pizza place opened on Royal York Road right by San Remo Bakery, south of Evans.

I remember being very excited when it opened about ten years ago on the Queensway, because there weren’t very many sushi spots in the neighbourhood.

Trini Gardens in South Etobicoke #WorldInMyCity ~Antigua & Barbuda
For many years there was a wonderful West Indian restaurant on the Queensway in South Etobicoke called Trini Gardens. The roti were absolutely perfect.
