Aloette is still the diner under Alo at 163 Spadina Avenue: bar stools at the kitchen, a burger, an iceberg wedge, lemon meringue pie. Michelin has recommended the room since 2022. This note is a Wednesday in June, not the sample January line already on the desk.

The official Spadina page still quotes the Guide: everyone wants the burger, and for dessert there must be pie. The photograph is Spadina looking south — the street, not a plate.

Same house. New date on the statement. The diner car is the constant.
