    According to the owner:
    Satisfying the demand for hot and fresh food from late morning through the following dawn, Ghazale is tucked into the building that houses the historic Bloor Cinema, offering Lebanese take-out around the clock since 1995. This bustling stand, named for the Turkish word for beautiful, offers salads and dips, stuffed vegetables and grains, shawarma and kabobs, plus Middle Eastern desserts.
    The family-run Ghazale features recipes directly from Beirut, Lebanon, where similar stands offer similarly cheap eats. Falafel or veggie sandwiches are served up with all the fillings, along with chicken or beef shawarma, and chicken livers. Tabbouleh, chickpea and cabbage salads, hummus and babaganoush are all menu highlights as well. Grape leaves, cabbage rolls, bell peppers and bulgur and rice are also featured delicacies. The Lebanese-style moussaka mixes an eggplant stew with chickpeas, onion and garlic in a tomato sauce. Four kinds of baklava or sesame seed cookies are available for dessert. Seating in the compact room is scarce, but there’s plenty of public outdoor space on surrounding side streets.
    Ghazale’s stretch of Bloor Street, in the heart of the Annex, continues to evolve with eateries offering tastes from around the world. Ghazale’s late-night hours have made it a regular ritual for cab drivers, hungry students and nighthawks looking for some edible gratification on their way home from the party or a bar. Patrons at the adjacent rep cinema are also fond of grabbing a post-show bite.
