After the closure of Schmaltz Appetizing, chef Anthony Rose has relaunched the space as taco joint Gordy Smiles.
The Jewish chef known for pastrami sandwiches and patty melts is drawing from his time in New York and San Francisco, where he worked in the kitchen alongside Mexican chefs. The menu features traditional taqueria dishes like chicken tinga, carnitas ulita and goat stew.
Being on Ossington, Gordy Smiles is open until 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays for those after-the-bar cravings.
