a mini-ghetto foodies moment

wow, it's been so long since we've blogged here. ever since dave got his new place, we've cut back on eating out, opting more for the cheaper and healthier (but no less saltier!) home-cooking.

anyway, i've been reminded of this site a few times since last summer, and last friday was one of those times. i was out with my pharmie friends for lunch that day, and one of my friends suggested eating at a $3.75 fried rice place with generous servings down on spadina. when we got there, it was none other than the "slaughterhouse" bathroom place mentioned back in july.

"ok... sure, we can eat here if you want. i don't think i got sick from their food."

i said it in earnest, but my friends opted to eat somewhere else. (ka chi by kensington, mmm!)



btw, the other times i thought ghettofoodies was when dave and i were visiting mary's place and we walked by that chinese restaurant that we were convinced was just a front for an illegitimate drug business. "i'll take two pounds of cha siew, wink wink."

also, tomlin, i'm still waiting for your report on pho places. feel free to contribute from vancouver!
