Johnny's Hamburgers

I conducted a retirement planning seminar at Yonge/Sheppard this morning so scampered over to Johnny's Hamburgers afterwards for lunch.

I've only been there once before with Gord ... it is a blast from his past.

Luckily I got there just before noon ... after that, the place was jammed.

Here is part of BlogTo's description of it:

At the corner of Victoria Park and Sheppard in Toronto's East end, Johnny's Hamburgers is a landmark. It's the kind of place that your parents would have gone to as teenagers (and maybe even did), and it's still around for good reason. Endorsed by the likes of Mike Myers, the brightly painted burger joint is not meant to be a place of fine dining or ambiance. You step up the counter, order your food, take a number and wait on a bench. It takes just a few minutes and you're back on your feet and picking your toppings, though they don't offer lettuce.

I ordered a burger, fries and chocolate milkshake (yum!) ... and it came to just over $8. A great deal! There was nowhere to eat so I took it back to the car. It was good, though I was too full to finish all the fries.

The fella waiting on me was extremely helpful and friendly ... he could probably tell I was a newbie!
