Today, we stumbled upon a Panera Bread franchise at Hillcrest Mall in Richmond Hill. So, Panera is finally expanding into Canada : three stores so far, all in GTA opened since October 2008: one at Square One, and the other two in York, RH being the first Panera in Canada. I think that only Artisano can really compete with Panera in their target demographic. It turns out that the RH location used to be a Krispy Kreme location which partially explains the cheap ceiling and wall tiles.
Wild turkeys, once extirpated, now go one-on-one with suburban pedestrians in what biologists call misguided efforts to establish their dominance in a pecking order.
