G8/G20 Summit in Toronto

The Globe and Mail published a primer, complete with an audio quote from our own Sarah Etherden, on what to expect during the G8/G20 summit. The SoHo Metropolitan Hotel will be within the security zone but not the "fenced" zone, and the Metropolitan Hotel Toronto is outside the zones.

Aside from Lai Wah Heen Restaurant closing from June 25-June 27, there are currently no plans for other hotel services to be affected.

Fans of Lai Wah Heen are encouraged to try its sister restaurant, Lai Toh Heen, conveniently located on Mt. Pleasant one block south of Eglinton and away from the hassle downtown during the summit.
