Same for the restaurant at the National Art Center Sushi Ichiban on Bank Street, just south of Laurier Chinatown is on Somerset street, west of Bronson - lots of unique places. My favorite is the Mekong, on Somerset just west of Bronson. Definitely go down Elgin street - for a very different character than the "Market". breakfast - at Mayflower Pizza - Colonnade Pizza on 280 Metcalfe - maybe a mile south where you'll be staying ...Vick "Greg J.
