New Blog!

2010-10-20T07:57:00.002-04:00

Hey everyone!

For those that follow Hank's blog, we're moving to a different site. The new blog will be at: http://hankscafe.posterous.com. It's a joint blog and social networking link to our facebook and Twitter account (ours has better spelling than most).

Today's lunch includes sweet pepper and potato soup (has a bit of heat to it), and a tomato feta frittata.

Be sure to check out the new blog spot.

9 Church st. Update!

2010-10-18T08:30:00.002-04:00

Good Monday everyone!

Just a quick update about the goings on at Hank's and the Wine Bar. There has been, and will continue to be, some construction going on in Hank's. A new gourmet burger restaurant is opening! The Great Burger Kitchen will be joining the 9 Church place gang. It will be owned and operated by the Wine Bar and Hank's owners.

GBK uses locally sourced, naturally raised and free range beef, pork, lamb, chicken, etc. Everything used is 100% from the province of Ontario.

For more information check out www.greatburger.ca

ETA is one month from now.

Thursday Wash Out!

2010-10-14T09:21:00.002-04:00

Good morning everybody,

Today the Hank's crew are serving up roasted garlic and vegetable soup to warm you up on this cold rainy day. It may be the same ingredients as yesterday's soup, but it's a brand new batch made fresh today. Hank's went through two soups yesterday (the roasted garlic AND a wild mushroom), that's why it's a repeat day. It was a soupy day yesterday!

Also, our Frittata today is also a popular hold over from Wednesday; the tomato and spinach frittata.

Be sure to drop in and see why they were so popular Wednesday (because they're good...)!

More Than Half

2010-09-09T10:05:00.002-04:00

Good morning everyone. We're more than half way to the weekend, so don't fret. To help the citizens of Toronto make it that extra kilometre the Hank's crew have some great daily specials. Our soup of the day is a curry lentil, and our frittata is made with delicious zucchini and chevre.

Good News and Bad News...

2010-09-08T10:12:00.002-04:00

First the bad news... This morning it's dark, chilly and there's a chance for a little rain. I've noticed a cold going around, and the tips of a few leaves on a few trees are starting to brighten... Fall is coming.

Now for the good news! Coffee, espresso, lattes, cappucinos and piping hot teas are the perfect remedy for the Fall fear.

Today's specials are Curry Lentil soup (only a subtle curry taste, not too spicey), and a tomato and feta frittata.

Also, we've got fresh baked treats including peach muffins, cinnammon raison scones, tea biscuits, croissants and pain au chocolate.

How Long Until Thanksgiving?
