What's Up With Roy Square?

I also have heard that the Biryani House in Roy Square is also closing down! Has this something to do with the new condo complex on Yonge and Bloor?

I haven't heard anything about that recently, however the rumour that Roy Square was going to be closed down and converted into condos was flying around in 2002 too.

In fact, it's one of the reason why Debu Saha moved the original Biryani House down to Wellesley.  (Though he hasn't been helming that one since April either.)

The rumour was the primary reason there are no Roy Square restaurants in the first two editions of CheapEats Toronto. By the third edition we figured it was just a rumour and Biryani House, Ritz and The Falafel House all made the book.

I guess we'll have to do a bit more digging for the next edition (which we're starting work on in January).

Please let us know if you hear anything concrete or see signs going up.
