I Really Wish Toronto Had More Greenery..
It may be super rainy day out there today, but just imagine how much more enjoyable the rain would be if the city had something to show for it besides chauffers on cement landscapes driving around in mechanical horses. Maybe they would like some friendly scenery for our environment's greenery too? Well, you come to Hanks and you're helping with a more environmental act, because everything is made with local ingredients and our pigs, chickens and cows are grain fed, giving them a better life, and looking after our farms outside the downtown core, which we might not see all the time but is nonetheless important to build on.
Well, come on in and enjoy our Beef Bourguignon Stew or our Maple Parsnip Soup!
Or grab one of our delicious sandwiches,

How you all doing there today? You all looking for some well and good food to give your gut some gusto to keep you going for a good portion of your afternoon or morning?

Watcha saying there? Making your way on this gorgeous day, soaking up the sun, enjoying a little bit of each and every one of those sun rays huh? Well, uh, why not grab what's good for ya, with advent of our srping having done gone and sprung up on us. Get something hot off the grill, grab it and get some of that vitamin D the sun is charitable enough to share with us.
Not that the winter warz were all that bad this year time though. Ch'yea, maybe it'll make for a scorcher this year, so start getting the sunscreen in case this summer shapes up to be any kind of scorched earth policy.
Try our 2 mini Panzerottis when you come in!
See you soon!

Hey fellas and fellerinas,
Yep, you guessed it. It's Friday and we're busting out the Pastrami Sandwich to kick it off. You may want to bite into our mini panzerottis or simply take out a soup or stew. The Black bean stew is seeming pretty mean to me, big in taste and very filling for all the big kids to fill up on.
Or just come in for a cup of Joe, or I guess a cup of Hanks.. if only this place were named Joe's then it would've sounded more clever...
