Picture of the Day: January 1, 2010 »

 

After a long and exciting evening, I found myself at the Emerald Chinese Restuarant having dim sum with my family. The restuarant was pack as is usual on a New Year's day and the shower of snow outside made the inside of the restaurant come alive.  Half way through my meal I came across the perfect opportunity to take a picture but I realized that I had forgotten to bring my camera. I felt horrible for not being able to capture the moment, so here is the picture of the day that will have to do in it's stead.

Forest View »

 

Today I photographed Forest View Chinese Restaurant on Dundas St. Forest View is one of the oldest and best Chinese Restaurants in Toronto. I've ventured into the restaurant on numerous occasions and found that I was keenly interested in not only the food but the atmosphere. The restaurant is full of people who are are dedicated to the restaurant both employees and customers. This restaurant has become a home for a community of people who share in language and history. To me the presence of community within this restaurant makes it a special place to be in.
