Didier Leroy is closing his midtown bistro after almost a decade
Didier, the Yonge Street bistro from Master Chef Didier Leroy, is closing. The midtown restaurant, which opened in 2000 2004, catered to an Old Toronto set with all the trappings of a traditional Parisian dining room: oak-panelled walls, Edith Piaf and a menu of impeccable soufflés, terrines and tartares. Unrelated to the closure, Didier made headlines last month when a Toronto Justice of the Peace was suspended for improperly influencing the restaurant’s city health inspection. The bistro will serve its last meal on August 31.

I saw him almost every day at the Starbucks across the street. Wasn’t the coffee in his own restaurant tasty?
Attitude. staff left. staff hired. fed up.
So Glad he went out of business, him and his crazy ex-wife stole tips from employees. Weren’t they accused of trying to get a health violation reversed by intimidating the inspector?
