Bummer! Kookoo’s walks back new store in Leaside

Kookoo’s Kitchen, the eclectic-menu restaurant in Woodbridge is walking back its plans to open at 874 Eglinton Ave. E at Laird Drive. In June, the firm draped the location in its signage and proclaimed a new restaurant soon. But principals now tell The South Bayview Bulldog that Kookoo’s has issues with the property and are discussing them with the landlord. It doesn’t sound hopeful. In short, don’t count on seeing a Kookoo’s there any time soon.
