Chopin

Last night for *wing* night we decided to go to Rob's Polish place for supper.  It was pretty far west, but thankfully the streetcar went right past it.  Well, it was supposed to anyway.  The streetcar we got on decided to randomly stop at Roncesvalles which left us 6 blocks more to go in the cold snowy weather.  Thankfully Patrick asked the driver about it and we all got transfers and hopped on the streetcar which conveniently just behind ours.  So that turned out alright.

Rob was watching out the window to figure out when our stop is, and when he requested a stop we gathered and watched out the window looking for the restaurant with him.  We saw it.. and the closed sign as we drove by.  Closed???!!  We spent half an hour on a street car and the place was closed? Oh noes!  So we got out and went to look at the sign.  It was closed from sometime in January to February 15th.  Two days early.  What bad luck. 

We followed Rob into the Sobey's a couple doors down, where he asked the cashier if she knew of any other good polish restaurants.  He knew there were a few good ones close by but didn't know of them.  The cashier was useless.  Thankfully a couple people paying were helpful.  One suggested Chopin because his friends go there a lot and one is polish so it must be good.  The other pointed us in the right direction.  Matt had heard on Chowhound that it was one of the best polish restaurants so off we went.  It was a nice little place.  And the food was yummy!!  Another wing night success =)
