The best public washrooms I’ve seen in awhile…

POSTED July 3, 2009 BY Jef Choy

While attending my cooking class at City Square, I was feeling a bit nostalgic, on any given day throughout the entire time I went to school, possibly the best thing that might happen to me in the course of a day might be taking a bathroom break.  So about a quarter way through the class I quietly left the room and walked through the food court and into the washroom.

Now I spend a fair amount of time on the road in my day job, and due to this I’ve got a mental rolodex of places to relieve myself : Community centers, gas stations, hotels, Starbucks, and malls.  There are alot more, but these are usually explanation free, I don’t have to talk to the hostess, I don’t have to convert to their religion….churches…bad idea.  Quality wise, I’d say gas station at one end, downtown hotels on the other, food courts are usually pretty bad.  So when I walked into the one at City Square, I was blown away.

‘Cactus Club…paging Cactus Club….please pick up your washroom…you’ve left it in City Square…’

Check it out!

note: I don’t recommend or endorse taking photos in public washrooms….but I just had to share this one with you.  And that is all I will share with you…..

    I too have enjoyed the city square bathrooms. When you close that giant frosted door it’s almost like you’re back in the comfort of your own home.

    Oakridge men’s room is okay but nothing more. This one looks incredible by comparison.
