Two Toronto chefs are joining forces to bring one of the city's most legendary now-defunct restaurants back to life for one night only.
Spend enough time with anyone who lived in Toronto during the '70s, '80s and '90s, and eventually the question "remember Ginsberg & Wong?"
A perhaps unlikely combination of cuisines at the time, Ginsberg and Wong combined all the staples of a Jewish deli with Chinese classics.
If one person was in the mood for a Reuben sandwich and another wanted Szechuan chicken, everybody was happy.
Heck, David Schwartz, the chef behind two of the city's best-known Chinese restaurants, just opened a deli of his own.
