The owner saw us and came and let us in, even though the couple that remained were just about done. The owner locked the door behind us and didn't let anyone else in. A great guy and he had a tonne of stories to tell about pro hockey players who had eaten there.

That place had to be a money-launderer or a Tax Dodge. I went to High School just down the street and he was almost never open.
I even asked him once..."dude, theres a hockey game on in an hour...why are you closed? 20,000 people are about to walk by...."
He didn't care.
But yeah, the stories he told and he was just the nicest guy...I just have no idea how or why he ran that place.
