//cup of coffee at the Downsview Restaurant in NW Toronto.
Today's image is another shot from my stop at the Downsview diner this week. It was a great little spot for a trip back in time over fries and a burger. Chatting with our waitress, Betty, who is also one of the owners, I learned that they're nearing their 60th anniversary in business.
"Wow, congratulations... and this is all still original, huh?" I asked while looking around at the vintage appliances and decor.
"All original. Even the waitress is original!" she replied with a grin, as the regulars burst into laughter.
