The old Variety Video location on Grafton Street has been “under renovation” for a couple of months now. When we walked by yesterday we found out why: it’s being transformed into a delicatessen:

Some Googling about reveals a job ad (since removed) for two cooks with the following particulars:

Work Setting: Restaurant, Fast food outlet, Bistro

Cuisine Specialties: Canadian, Vegetarian

Food Preparation Specializations: Bakery goods and desserts, Stocks, soups and sauces, Eggs and dairy, Cold kitchen (salads, appetizers, sandwiches), Vegetables, fruits, nuts and mushrooms, Meat, Pasta, Pizza

All in all this seems very promising (although we’ll miss the handy source of video rentals).
