A pop-up restaurant where diners enjoy three-course meals inside heated glass domes has opened beneath Toronto's Gardiner Expressway less than a month after the city tore down a homeless encampment at another location under the same highway.
Called Dinner With a View, people can pay $149 to rent a life-sized terrarium at the Bentway, a public space under the Gardiner in the city's west end. For an additional $99 per patron, guests get a dinner by Top Chef season 4 winner Rene Rodriguez.
The company bills it as "a luxurious dining experience in a highly unexpected setting." But anti-poverty activist Yogi Acharya calls it "an obscene spectacle."
