  1. This is Pando Damianoff and his family, his wife Gena, children Hope, Dan, and Chris, in the late 1920s at Pando’s Restaurant. Gena and Pando were Greeks who naturalized in 1922. Pando opened Sunnyside Lunch at 1562 Queen West in the early 1930s. Stanley (Stoyan) Geleffs restaurant opened in 1932. Geleffs were Macedonians. In 1933, Stanley renamed it Pacific Railway Lunch and in 1934 it became CPR Lunch. Stanley and his wife Rose had four children, Thelma, Victoria, Thomas, and Bruce. I was curious to see what was on the menu. I’ll try to find a 1930s working class restaurant menu
