| - I wish, I wish, I wish we had more places like this in Toronto.
First, you can't beat the story and concept behind this restaurant, almost cafeteria-like in its setting in a community centre.
Second, so many of the menu options are nutritious, healthy, and yet creative - great for meeting a friend for a dinner that won't make you feel like you'll be rolling home.
I had the small classic bisque to start, which I now realize didn't have a cheese brioche as stated on the menu (perhaps that's only with the large?). The soup was a little on the spicy side for me, which overwhelmed any other flavours that would have been underneath, and I skimmed out the pool of evergreen oil floating on top.
For the main, I had a dinner-sized cassoulet. It came presented nicely with a few small triangles of brown toast. It was delicious, warm and hearty. I could eat it every day. The serving size was very reasonable for its price.
We went on a Friday evening after 6pm, so they were sold out of nearly everything (including dessert), sadly. I can't wait to go back and try something else, though I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up ordering the cassoulet again.
