Lena rong the corner (by tim hortons) Truth be told is same family. Juss Lena's less crowded, better service and smaller doubles.Both places making real $$. I'd share the location of my sister's place, but knowing allyuh Trinibagonian people allyuh go want discount and extra this and that.

I went to a WI roti shop near tapscott and Finch (at Melford)... it had a white Greek working the kitchen. Can't be the same one.  Terribly disappointing. Then it have another one on Finch just west of Tapscott.  Is that the one you talking about?

A couple years ago there was a Trini Indian place at Sherboure/Bloor.

I believe just west on Bloor. There is a huge office building and it's just next to it.
Should be on the left if you walk West. But I pushing the memory here.

Bought from them once, the owners from South.

lena's is not next door to drupatis, albion, the other place next door to drupatis i heard tastes better than drupatis

the place next door to Drupati is "Roti Roti  Family Restaurant"  975 Albion Road.  Drupati is 979 Albiion.

I still cant understand why in the city the size of Toronto, two competing Roti shops will be next door to each other.

I am sure that some semblance of that theory played a part in the second Shop setting up where they did
If it was me I would locate close to another like shop, especilly if i had determined that the traffic going to that shop was substantial
all speculation on my part....no doubt
