Useful place for folks in need. For people who wish to help, they have boxes set up outside for people to drop off particular items of need. If you have cardboard egg cartons (note that they do not take plastic or 18 pack ones), they do use them in their food packages for families. Consider helping out and/or donating to your local food bank!

In the wintertime, this is the only food option available besides Tim Horton's at the entrance. Burgers are done fresh but fries are small. Quite expensive markup at the zoo unfortunately. Still, a nice clean place to stop at and be warm during winter visits. In the summertime there are more restaurants open in the middle of the African Savannah as well as by the polar bears.

With time to kill while waiting for a flight out west, I found the shops open with few staff and even fewer shoppers. It was nice to be in an airport setting again... Everything was clean, well-sanitized, and orderly. Airport staff were busy but Canadian polite and helpful as usual. Food options in T3 aren't as great - look for the Subway restaurant as a cheap option.

I was looking for an Indian-style roti place to go to, and I found it! Walked in to find a couple working there, although I could have ordered online as well (turns out after you pick online what type of roti you want, then you choose the meat of chicken lamb or shrimp). Lamb was good, as was the butter chicken (chicken chunks were uneven in size, as smaller pieces were good but one large chunk would be dry). And the spice... Butter chicken mild was right for my eating partner, and lamb korma medium was a good kick while still tasting the flavour of the food. Will definitely pay them another visit!
