I wonder what sort of bar it will be.

At least it's not a pot shop?

Air Canada's list of best new Canadian restaurants that opened between Spring 2021 to May 31, 2022 includes the following Toronto entries:

From Toronto, Fonda Balam, MIMI Chinese, Prime Seafood Palace, Restaurant 20 Victoria and Osteria Giulia all earned a place on the long list. All critically acclaimed, each brings something unique to Toronto’s dining scene. An über-popular pop-up turned permanent spot, Fonda Balam dishes out birria tacos along with Mexican street-food staples. At MIMI, regional Chinese cuisine pairs with moody, polished interiors to entice diners from across the city to visit. Matty Matheson’s Prime Seafood Palace is a place where luxury and mastery join hands to take guests on a wondrous journey of pure satisfaction. Restaurant 20 Victoria celebrates the seasons with ever-changing tasting menus meant to be relished at a leisurely pace. Finally, at Osteria Giulia, chef Rob Rossi translates seafood-focused dishes from Italy's north into precious plates for the College-Street-set.

Has anyone found anything new and good for lunch in the financial district since returning to the office? A lot has changed in 2.5 years...

Can't help you there. The food court at Scotiaplaza (the closest to my office) was totally renovated but the only places that have reopened so far are the same old ones. Ugh. There will be a Market Street Catch, and that in itself is mildly original, but it's not open yet.

But that was last week. This week, lease over, office vacated, working at home permanently, eating last night's leftovers for lunch!
