along king street west — many restaurants are setting up for patio season after months of pandemic restrictions. pictured here: LoV restaurant with a large side patio & Ruby Soho. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/06/24/barber-shops-hair-salons-restaurants-malls-and-patios-reopen-in-toronto.html
wasn’t sure if i’d find any early patio goers but king west never disappoints. this is Aniella and Flavo dining at Brioche Doreé just before 9 am. they said they saw others sitting there and joined in. they only have 3 patio tables. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/06/24/barber-shops-hair-salons-restaurants-malls-and-patios-reopen-in-toronto.html – bei Brioche Doree
Walking west into Queen W. — popular veggie restaurant Fresh has the patio tables out. Always see a huge line here for take-out. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/06/24/barber-shops-hair-salons-restaurants-malls-and-patios-reopen-in-toronto.html
Nail salons, hair salons, barber shops are also taking customers today. This is the first customer at Kingsway Hair Design, Gordon Gardiner and shop owner Anna Hubbard just before 8 am.

What I’ve also seen a lot of today: Restaurant workers debating about table distance, number of tables, and constant rearranging. A lot of this face

Poll time guys — anonymous style. Who is hitting up a patio today? https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/06/24/barber-shops-hair-salons-restaurants-malls-and-patios-reopen-in-toronto.html
This is my friend Sophie’s call log from yesterday and yes, she’s allowed me to share it with you all. And she did end up getting an appointment.
