Laila's, my favourite Lebanese food in the city, got shut down this week.

 

The full list of violations is pretty egregious. 

I ate there at least a few times a month. Not only did the food taste exactly like my Lebanese grandmother's cooking, they always kept a chess set around. Andrey and I used to play all the time when he still lived in Toronto.

Here's a picture of a typical plate:

Alas, the hundreds of cumulative dollars I spent there wasn't enough to prevent "gross unsanitary conditions." 

Sigh

Wow, I didn't realize you had a Lebanese grandmother. That's pretty cool. Guess that makes two of us. :)

Coincidentally, my grandmother's name is Laila.
