The Rec Room at Masonville Mall is more than<br />
35,000 sq. ft. of Canadian-inspired "Eats &<br />
Entertainment" all under one roof. Part of Cineplex,<br />
The Rec Room is a premier social destination and<br />
gathering spot for corporate events, groups and<br />
parties. Each location is customized to the individual<br />
community. There are two different restaurants<br />
to choose from: THREE10 features wood-fired,<br />
Canadian-inspired cuisine, and THE SHED features<br />
poutine and donuts. 1680 Richmond Street North.<br />
The building at 613 Dundas Street that once housed<br />
Chapman’s Bakery, vacant for nearly two decades,<br />
is being reimagined as Baker’s Dozen, an incubator<br />
for artists and craftspeople.<br />
Willie’s Café, in the London Food Incubator at<br />
630 Dundas St., has added some new menu items,<br />
including Avocado Toast with feta, onions, tomato<br />
and a six minute egg and a Triple B Melt with<br />
in-house roast beef, bacon, blue cheese mayo, and<br />
caramelized onions on a grilled ciabatta bun. Also<br />
returning is an old Willie’s favourite, Warm Spinach<br />
Salad with fresh baby spinach, red peppers, onions<br />
and mushrooms sautéed in balsamic vinaigrette,<br />
topped with crumbled feta. There is catering, takeaway<br />
and plenty of eat-in or patio seating. Open<br />
11:00 AM to 2:30 PM, Monday to Friday. Parking<br />
is now available in the municipal lot behind 630<br />
Dundas, off Queens Ave, with access to Willie's<br />
through the blue door at the rear of the Food<br />
Incubator. williescafeandcatering.com<br />
Peter Cuddy recently opened Origins Co., a graband-go<br />
coffee shop that serves up fresh juices,<br />
smoothies and smoothie bowls, as well as baked<br />
goods with gluten-free options, using ingredients<br />
that are ethically harvested, non-GMO and organic<br />
where possible. It also serves Bulletproof coffee,<br />
espresso, and teas. 140 Ann Street (at Talbot Street),<br />
Monday to Saturday. originsco.com<br />
Petojo Foods and Catering started in February<br />
2015 with prepared frozen foods and catering<br />
services. Chef Anthony Abdullah and his sister<br />
Kimi Abdullah wanted to create a platform for<br />
Indonesian cuisine, which they feel is not well<br />
represented in Ontario. They are looking to secure<br />
a permanent production kitchen with a space for<br />
limited dinner service each week. As well, they<br />
hope to begin serving hot food at their booth at<br />
The Market at Western Fair. This summer they will<br />
continue to participate in the farmers’ markets at<br />
Masonville and at Goderich. petojofood.com<br />
Gloria Palcich’s Keto Health Foods provides<br />
