Wow....thanks for the PM.....August 17th is ok for me and Yorkdale would be great for a lot of people like me who don't drive or don't own a car  ;D...plus it's easy to reach via the highway or by GO bus.

Yorkdale Mall would be good for me, too.

I'm not sure about the date. Yorkdale is not great but could be done, as it's on the subway.

An extra bonus for me is that Yorkdale Mall's food court sells New York Fries, which are gluten-free.  I can't eat anything else in a mall or restaurant.

HI Folks,

Yorkdale is fine with me as well. Please forgive my ignorance of Yorkdale but I find most malls have very few "regular" restaurants in them and focus on the food court quick food model and I assume Yordale uses that model.  I suggest that we meet in a regular restaurant (ie Kelsey's, Boston, etc) that is either in the mall or close by. Also when the time gets closer, I'd appreciate some directions on how to get there. 17 or 24th of August is good for me. Looking forward to meeting everyone there.

Yorkdale Mall has two restaurants that I know of:  The Pickle Barrel and The Rainforest Cafe.  I could double-check that, if anyone would like me to peek at the phone book and make a call.  I think the Chapters bookstore had a little cafe the last time I was there.  (I don't go to the mall very often.)
