Lobster Island (169 Augusta, 416-591-6488)
This fishmonger on the fringes of Chinatown supplies the king of crustaceans to most of the nabe's restaurants that are offering two-for-one Lobster specials.

And although it doesn't look like it, this seafood spot is open to the public as well as the trade.
