There has been recent controversy/debate about them (Hero Burger) winning a RFP for a new Nathan Philips Square location. Some of the councilors said there should be something better/more exciting/unique/etc/etc there. I don't know why they didn't work that into the RFP then. Anyway, bottom line is that they voted to award it to Hero in the end.
What really got me was the media talking about this. On Newstalk 1010 various hosts were talking about this issue and they and others were calling in to say that Hero was a "good" burger/etc. Some people were calling in with high praise... I want to think they were employees but I guess some people really do love Hero burger!
I have had "okay" burgers from there in the past (I find the larger ones disgusting, but, the smallest burger is bearable/ok to me). I would have also liked to have seen something more unique/healthier/etc there but oh well.
