Caplansky’s Deli in Toronto has been suddenly closed by its landlord, a mystery leaving its owner and celebrity restaurateur scratching his head but vowing to fight back.
Zane Caplansky found a foreclosure notice from his landlord stuck to his College Street restaurant’s door Tuesday.

Caplansky seemed bewildered in a social media post on the closure of the eatery, which opened in 2009.
