community driven
Toronto has always been a city of tight-knit
communities. Greeks on the Danforth, Polish
in Roncesvalles, Little Italy, Chinatown, and
Cabbagetown, where Irish immigrants first
settled-all of these neighborhoods make up
the cultural fabric of a thriving metropolis.
It's no wonder that the city's recent spate
of hospitality development is community
centric and entrepreneur driven. Many small
developers are taking matters into their own
hands by putting up a bevy of district-focused
properties to cater to local inclinations. At the
same time, golden opportunities are finally
coming to (and being realized in) Canada's most
densely populated megacity. "Our incredible
Canadian landscapes, inclusive social policies,
stable banking system, and more all contribute
to making Toronto an attractive option for

urban migration and developers," explains
designer Alessandro Munge, founder of local
firm Studio Munge.
Case in point: the Union Station
Revitalization Project, which has been ongoing
since 2010. Currently seeing 290,000 people
pass through its nexus of train and bus nodes, it
was not until Union Chicken and Amano Pasta
opened in late December that the commuter
hub (Canada's busiest) offered anything beyond
Starbucks for F&B. The 1927 Beaux Arts-style
structure is undergoing a major expansion,
with a basement floor being dug for further
retail, and a former horse and buggy carriage
house being transformed into a heated,
canopied dining area.
This could not happen sooner for Adam
Teolis, one of four partners behind Union

Chicken and Amano Pasta. Teolis named his
business after the station, yet opened its first
branch in a suburban mall while he waited
for space to be ready. Both Union Chicken
branches and Amano come courtesy of local
firm DesignAgency. Union Chicken has an
easygoing vibe with stained-glass windows
and a long bar, while Amano boasts a glassfronted open kitchen, U-shaped chef's table,
clean white subway tile surrounds, and the
essential grab-and-go counter for hungry folks
rushing to catch their connection.
DesignAgency was also responsible for
the interiors of the 58-room Broadview Hotel
(local adaptive reuse specialist architect
ERA restored the 1891-era red brick heritage
structure), including the recently opened
Civic restaurant. Clad with red leather-tufted
