Me too. You'd think the obvious choices would be Roncy or Bloor West Village, but perhaps there aren't any spaces large enough to accommodate them.

They have a store called Starigrad in the Junction which isn't much. Wasn't Nations at one point euro-focused?

I had no idea Starigrad is associated with Starsky, but you're right, it's a small store with limited offerings. I'd like to see a proper Starsky open on one of our walkable retail strips. Not sure why it hasn't happened since by what I can tell, there's definitely a gap in that market downtown.
I'd be surprised if Nations was ever Euro-focused. The one in the Stockyards has skewed heavily Asian since it opened.

I don't think Starigrad is connected to Starsky, it was a misspeak on my part.
You are right about Nations. I confused it with Yummy Market at Dufferin and Finch which is euro-focused.

Isn't Yummy Market a Russian grocery store? I went in there many years ago and they had Putin t-shirts. Fuck them.

Yes, it is. I went in there once years ago, not knowing. I’ll shop at East Asian grocery stores no problem. Yummy Market? Nope.

Marshall's maaaybe? Albeit, probably too small.

Oh man, please no. Toronto is already overrun with Winner's, Marshall's sibling. (Not that my guess of Urban Planet would be any better. LOL).

Now now...
What really truly need is a return of the It Store.

I just want them to come back! I miss that store for their British foods. To this very day I am still sad they left Canada/Toronto.

That's basically Spencer Gifts in Dufferin Mall...

I think if they came back using their now standard M&S signage, the kids wouldn't view it as an "old person's store.". Plus, the old people would be smart enough to figure out that the brand was back.
