Readers’ recommendations: Tanoor restaurant at 1445 Lons- dale Ave. (986-8182) gets an en- thusiastic three-fork ovation from Francis Garcia who reports that a recent Tanoorian hamburger ex- perience was fab, boss, hep and, well, let Francis tell you: “it was so really delicious, and even the bun (which | usually leave} was also very good, with the crust just crusty enough. My friend had a potato olate of some kind with sauce... Absolutely scrumptious.” Francis also rated the service as “excellent’’ and the courtesy and manners of Tancor staff as great and “‘so refreshing these days.” Francis also assured me that she was not related to any Tanoor staff.
