Last weekend I was down in Toronto visiting relatives. We went out for dinner to Dangerous Dan's Diner. It is a little restaurant on the corner of Queen and Broadview which has a rather unique Menu. The ambiance reminds me a bit of Wally's here in Mississauga although Dangerous D's is not a breakfast joint. The bucket and bench seats is all part of the experience along with the staff who may appear a little rough around the edges at first but are actually quite friendly and appreciative. The service reminded me of being in England where you go up to the register to order, pay and when ready your meal is brought to the table, something not all people are used to. The food was actually really good even though first glance at the place you would swear the diner should be featured on Diners, Drive ins and Dives. But beware it is real greasy just the way burgers should be. I had the Big Kevorkian. There is also an interesting desert menu including Deep Fried Mars Bar which brings me to the reason for this post : The Giant Gummy Worm Ring of Death. I actually ran out to the car to grab the cam for this grand event. You won't find this on their online menu but it does exist and I have pics to prove it. We were so brave as to try our hand at the Gummy Worm Ring of Death and ultimately we were defeated. But nevertheless the giant succulent gummy worm is a very unique dessert. It is a deep fried gummy worm the size of about six pieces of liquorice made into a doughnut type concoction covered in ice cream and a rich carmel sauce. I've never seen anything like it and probably never will again. Anyhow pics are below stop in to see for your self or take a trip down to Dangerous Dan's Diner. Next time I will be ordering the Colossal Colon Clogger Combo.
