Hey, don't be dissing Tiny Tom, I worked for them in '02, lots of free
donuts to take home at the end of the night!  I've shopped at T&T (in
Calgary when I lived there, as well as the one in West Edmonton Mall
-- the one in WEM has to be the biggest in Canada; and used to go
there after work as a Commissionaire, when I lived there, and of
course the on on Cherry St here in Toronto).

I'm not a big fan of noodles, but will check out the food court, will
have to get something to eat anyway.  Of course before I go, I have to
go see Harry Potter in IMAX!
