Window Seat

Everyone loves the window seat. At Hank's we now have three bar chairs that look out into the Old York Toronto. Brick buildings, the CN tower peaking from behind trees and baskets of flowers - it's good to have a spring view, no?

Come sit in the window to enjoy...
Chicken and Rice Soup or
Vegetarian-Friendly Lentil Stew.

It's a rainy, beautiful day. Dance in it over to Hank's.

See you soon,
Max

Monday Monday

What a chill song for such a tough day. It's the beginning of a fresh week. Anything could happen from now till friday when the glorious spring weekend strikes again. Such strange folds these weeks are.

Soup today is a healthy little veg soup to boost your super powers. If you're feelin more meaty, we've got a hearty beef stew with the wildest rice bubblin away just waiting for your spoon.

We'll see you soon.

No News

No news is good news. Or, at least, me not posting news will leave you hoping the news was good.
I don't like to listen to the radio in the morning. The things I hear don't always put me in the right mood to help me put other people in the right mood.
So, in light of there being not so much good news in the world today - I'm leaving it to you to find your own news out - good or not so.

Good news on specials:
Braised Beef Stew - the yum.
Vegan-friendly Heirloom Bean and Tomato Soup - a dance in your mouth.

See you soon,
Max

Ida's not just a potato.

Cabbage salad: You hear a new word and suddenly you hear it everywhere.
Two days ago I was in a book store reading about a fossil named Ida and today it hits the news.
Don't know what you think - maybe it's good news, maybe it's no news.
It's just a weird monkey thing to me.

Don't feel so indifferent about lunch!
Cream of Happy Asparagus Soup
and
Chicken and Rice Stew

means there is nothing to feel "meh" about.

Hank's does the Wednesday dance. By tonight, the week will be half over. By this afternoon it will be a whopping TWENTY-FOUR DEGREES CELSIUS.
HOORAY.

See you soon,
Max

4 days to work in a week.

How exciting. With the May 2-4 weekend we really usher in the beginning of the summer season. It may have been a bit chilly out but it won't stop our barbeque spirits from soaring.
I attended my first wedding of the year. This is how I know that the warm weather will follow soon.

Toast up and hold out for the warmth to come with some specials.

Celeriac Soup is a Vegan Friendly Treat,
Lamb Stew keeps spring on the mind.
It's got a mushroomy tomato base and is quite lovely.

Come and tell us your weekend story.

See you soon,
Max

Thursday Eats!

Today the soup is Spicy Mushroom and we've got a lovely Lamb Stew bubbling away in the back. It's raining but it's nice at Hanks!

See you soon.

Food Spring is upon Hank's

I know it's actual real spring now because the local food is actually green again.
(Not root coloured like red, yellow, orange or potato-white).

Today we have
Wild Leek and Fiddle Head Soup (it's GREEN and DELICIOUS!).
Lamb and Wild Rice Stew (What's more spring than spring lamb?).

Lots of good stuff this weekend!
Hot Docs continues,
Colin James sings the blues,
We're Funny That Way kicks it off at the Buddies in Bad Time Theatre
and really many many more.

Get outside and pass Hank's on the way.

See you soon,
Max
