On Saturday, April 20th, 2024, the Bayview Pixies hosted a seed giveaway to celebrate Earth Day (April 22nd). They were stationed outside of Epi Breads at Bayview & Millwood and gave out approximately 175 seed packs (that’s 4,000 potential plants). If only a quarter of them grow, then they will have added 1,000 native plants to the neighbourhood! That’s something!

They plan on doing another seed giveaway during the Bayview-Leaside BIA AppleFest (Saturday, October 19, 2024). Looking forward to it!

Toronto Fire Services extinguished a fire in the early hours of Saturday morning at Mexico Lindo restaurant (1618 Bayview Ave). The apartment above the restaurant is vacant and there were no injuries reported. Our thoughts are with Mexico Lindo, which had recently reopened after addressing damages caused by a break-in.

My Roti Place grand opening specials

Zzavía, is a new pizza place that is set to open at 1597 Bayview Avenue. Their banner says “Reimagine Pizza”. Intriguing, we’re looking forward to it! (A Turkish restaurant was supposed to be opening at 1597 and 1599 Bayview Avenue, but from what we could see through the windows, they started demolition of huge space in 2022, but all work stalled after that.)

Grand opening specials at My Roti Place/My Dosa Place (1574 Bayview Avenue). On December 6th, starting at 11:00am, they will have select dishes including Butter Chicken Roti and Channa Masala Roti (Vegan) on offer for only $4.99.
