Great shot.

I've found some really good places to eat along that Kingsway stretch. Crab Hot Lau and Shiok being two of the best. Moon Cafe was up there as well, but it recently closed.

The T&T on Kingsway is a good one. Lots of premade lunchboxes that are quite tasty.

Shiok is great, but only been to the one at Lougheed Mall in the really nice revamped food court.

Re - Kingsway. There are some stretches with good potential to become decent retail stretches, maybe more similar to Victoria Drive though (as opposed to Main St), given the demographic. Cedar Cottage/Kingsway is one of these areas, with the City labeling it "Little Saigon". Obviously a Vietnamese leaning area, but still is diverse. Collingwood is very much a Chinese neighbourhood, as it very much resembles Victoria Drive. It is also the furthest evolved neighbourhood along Kingsway. The Victoria Drive area shows some potential as well.

I don't think these neighbourhoods will be allowed to evolve organically though, given how quickly condos are replacing all the 1 and 2 story retail buildings along Kingsway, which is too bad because his is how our best neighbourhoods like Mt. Pleasant, Commercial Dr. etc, evolved.
