Fire has gutted Tokyo Sushi at 1614 Bayview Ave. The sad scene at the front of the restaurant tells the story. The blaze was reported to the Toronto Fire Department at 12.54 a.m. and it took firefighters about an hour to get things under control. TFD sources said they believe the cause was a short circuit. There is what appears to be serious damage in restaurant’s dining room but apparently the apartment upstairs wasn’t affected except for smoke. The landlord told The South Bayview Bulldog he felt the that entire first floor of the restaurant would have to be cleared to the walls. He said the fire spread quickly and was actually out by the time he got to the scene. It was called in by a neighbor above the next door Fukui Sushi restaurant. Traffic was stopped for a period.
