Souvlaki on the Danforth

Another testament to Toronto's multi ethnic mix is the thriving community known as Greektown, along Danforth Avenue, just East of the downtown core. There are dozens of shops and restaurants where visitors to Toronto can taste some yummy Greek specialties such as Souvlaki or Baklava. Today was Greek Independance Day, and there was a parade on The Danforth, but it was too cold to stay and watch, so we took refuge in an authentic little souvlaki joint Astoria, pictured below, and had the most delicious chicken souvlaki on a pita.
