TABLE HOPPING

“N DISTANT restaurant
“days of yore, a trip te the

a White Spot was a special
family night on the town.

My father still waves his ear
trumpet enthusiastically when he
recounts, for the umpteenth time,
his introduction to a White Spot

hamburger when he first arrived in

Vancouver from England.

even vegetable. based fast foods..
