- From NOW January 8, 2007 They're back! Jean and Harry Seow must surely be the William Shatners of Toronto's dining scene. Just when you think they're gone for good, they pop up again in an even more delicious context. The pioneering husband-and-wife culinary tag team have quite the resto history, having launched one of the city's first Thai-Malaysian eateries, Rasa Sayang in the Market, back in 82. As Thai fever swept Toronto in that decade of conspicuous consumption, the couple relocated to classy digs on Eglinton West as Sawasdee in 87, to eventually sell up and retire in 94.Bored, the Seows resurfaced on the Danforth at the turn of the millennium with modest Jean's Fine Foods. Health issues caused the genial Seows to take a sabbatical in 02, but they rebounded briefly in 04, only to retire again the following year. Now guess who's opened the only Thai-Malay vegetarian joint in town?
