We're seeing the same in Canada. Nowadays I mostly eat out at breakfast joints mid-week for the specials.

Toronto's pizza kings Badiali are opening a second location
Pizzeria Badiali, the neighbourhood slice shop that quietly rose to best in the city status, is gearing up to open a second location.

The Annex will soon welcome the second location of Pizzeria Badiali, as part of the Mirvish Village development, where Honest Ed’s once stood. Mirvish Village will integrate a new park and The Kitchen, food hall and music venue, an extensive public realm, micro-retail, 24 restored heritage buildings, unique restaurants and shops as well as numerous indoor and outdoor performance and gathering spaces all interwoven with public art installations including a mural by artist Frank Stella.

But, even more than ribs and brisket, Toronto loves a good deal. To mark the occasion, sous-chef Taylor Wells has rolled out a playful lineup of $12 dinner specials—a greatest-hits curation of the restaurant’s most popular dishes and drinks from the past 12 years.
The discounted snacks include the Korean fried cauliflower (a menu staple since day one), shishito peppers (also one of 2014’s hottest food trends) and a half-dozen freshly shucked oysters.
Specially priced cocktails span crowd favourites and bar classics. There’s the Black Mamba Margarita (a moody twist on the tropical drink made with charcoal-infused tequila), the Pit-Fired Old Fashioned, the Smoking Manhattan, and the bright and bubbly Tokyo Breeze. Select whiskey pours—including Pike Creek double-barrelled, Gooderham and Worts, and J. P. Wiser’s 10-year—are also just $12, as is every dessert on the menu.

Next week, Antler’s doors will close briefly as the team renovates and reinvigorates both the menu and the space.
“This is not a concept overhaul,” says Shapiro. “We want to continue exploring the ethos of Canadiana and the wild we’ve become known for, but we’re interested in expanding what that means—both to us and to the diner.”

Hopefully a Heritage Toronto plaque can be placed at the window to commemorate the history of the site
