| - This Junction restaurant is one of the most interesting on the Dundas west strip. Funky art, big comfy chairs, a wicked middle eastern themed back room - basically, the vibe is West Coast chill. And this is obviously a huge draw. Here's the thing. I've been back a total of three times now. I love the staff. They're super friendly. And as mentioned I like the feel of the place. But I'm not organic bananas about the taste or price of the food.
I had the Cesar wrap the other day and the green shake. The wrap was fun to eat; a giant cabbage leaf surrounding a raw-style-bean-and-tahini preparation. It was healthy. But the strength of the raw garlic and lemon, combined with the low seasoning made the dish somewhat hard to eat. Actually, I had to stop eating it. Though, the spring rolls were yum, with fresh tasting veg and herbs, and a nice peanut dipping sauce. My partner loved her wrap...
The genesis of this review comes down the fact I recently lunched at another raw spot in town. The feel of the place and the staff are great, as mentioned. But In the end, when I'm hungering for Raw food, I think I'll head to another spot.
