Img Source Wiki...

Edwards Gardens is a botanical garden located on the southwest corner of Leslie Street and Lawrence Avenue East in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is also the site of the Toronto Botanical Garden, a private not-for profit organization previously called the Civic Garden Centre.
It is a former estate garden featuring annuals, roses and wildflowers and an extensive rockery. It is located on Wilket Creek, one of the tributaries of the Don River West Branch. The estate's title was once held by Alexander Milne, a Scottish weaver who settled here after the War of 1812 and left in 1832. The land and the woolen/saw mills was obtained by Rupert E. Edwards in 1944 and created his country home. Edwards home was left in neglect and was purchased by the Municipality of Metro Toronto in 1955 and became Edwards Gardens in 1956. The Civic Garden centre was relocated from another Milne property, the Milne home on Old Lawrence Avenue.
Edwards Gardens is one of several parks located in Toronto's ravines, many of which are connected by hiking and cycling trails ending on the shores of Lake Ontario. The park's manicured lawns and well kept flower beds make it a popular destination for wedding parties to take photographs.

If you have any questions Pm works fine.

Thank you looking forward to seeing you
Yeshwanth

I assume you mean Sat "Sept" 28. Very close for me, but I work Friday nights and Saturdays, and one week notice it too short notice to change my schedule.

Never been but don't believe so but there's another location in the Steeles and Don Mills area. I know a few people who write about food who think it's pretty good. The Cantonese chow mein is my wife's favorite as are the various fried rices (shrimp and egg sauce one is very simple but one of my favs). The roast pork there has the requisite crunchy rind and the crispy chicken, is well, crispy.

Is the Wong place good ?

I really like the Wong place and its always pretty busy, so I think that attests to how good the place is :)
