Rob Corless's Comments about Restaurant's in London
Near Richmond Row: (in no particular order)
5. Willie's Cafe (731 Wellington, across the tracks from Station Park)
--- excellent lunches, original soups
make reservations 433-9027
They're repainting the exterior and have taken down the sign;
it just looks like an old rundown house.
Mentioned in "Where to Eat in Canada"
6. Village Cafe 715 Richmond
--- excellent lunches
across the street from Station Park & up a bit

7. Prince Albert's Diner; 565 Richmond ( corner of Albert and Richmond )
--- American style, great milkshakes
8. Jambalaya 646 Richmond
--- Caribbean food; piquante
9. Curry Garden 374 Richmond
(Chris Smith's favourite; I also like Jewel of India)
10. Waldo's 215 Piccadilly
--- higher tone (and prices, but good)
11. Garlic's 481 Richmond St
12. Blue Ginger 644 Richmond
--- higher tone (and prices, almost worth it)
13. Villa Cornelia 142 Kent St (off Richmond)
--- excellent wine cellar, good European food
14. Marienbad 122 Carling (off Richmond)
--- Germanic food; excellent pumpkin-seed bread, I remember
15. Murano 394 Waterloo (go down Richmond, left on King to Waterloo)

16. "Home" 113 King St (between Talbot & Richmond, across from the Market)

17. La Casa 117 King St (next to "Home")

A little farther away:
19. Dragon Court 931 Oxford (you'll need to drive or take a cab)
--- Chinese, decent buffet
20. Angelo's 130 Thompson 438-9863
(drive along Sarnia Road to Wonderland, left on Wonderland,
left at first lights, Angelo's is on the left)
--- bakery, Italian groceries and deli, and has a counter
where you can get delicious pastas etc cooked in front of you,
splitting a meal gives you a very cheap and superb meal.
--- Would be a 25 minute walk, so driving better

--- Excellent Indian food, good if small buffet,
real Tandoori oven
22. Rivierview 284 Wonderland
