Funny signs at Toronto restaurants

We love our ethnic restaurants and greasy spoon restaurants because each one is independent and unique. One way they express their individuality is through their amusing and sometimes grammatically-challenged signs.

Here's a sampling of ones I've noticed in the Toronto area recently. If you have some photos of amusing signs in restaurants, please send them to me at [email protected]

"Latinos: Trudeau forever in our hearts!" at Segovia Meat Market in Kensington.

  1. The Vesta Lunch is tops for signs all 'round! Notice their very own sign with the words "Char Brolied"? Best spelling mistake in the city, I think. Makes me smile every time I walk by. :)
