| - I came here again with my coworkers for celebrations. They set up a table for us at the back of the room near kitchen, so we could see all the actions in the kitchen.
Most of us opt for the prix fixe lunch. By the time we order (around 12:45pm), one of the main course items was almost sold out.
We shared the Duck Liver Pate and Beef Tartare. Very creamy, mousse like Duck liver pate was served on the toast. We also love it and said we were like eating the dessert.
Beef Tartare was served on a crispy potato Pastry. We were amazed by the pastry more than the beef Tartare although it was great too.
I had the quinoa salad for starter. It was refreshing and I love they combine different textures in one dish, crispy potato chips, hummus, kale, ranch source, quinoa.
Roast Pork Shoulder was presented nicely the bed of button mushroom, mostarda with mushroom cream sauce and kale on top. When I cut up the pork, I thought it was dry but when I put it in the mouth, it was so tender!
My coworkers praised their Venison Chilli as well. They said it didn't taste like chilli but very nice dish. But mind you that was spicy.
I have looked at their dessert on Internet and it was beautiful, so we decided to try. At first, we thought they were drinks because they name them Bubble Tea, PiƱa Colada. If I didn't see the photos, I would have no clue. Since we ordered the prix fixe, the dessert was only $5 (half price!). The dessert were made with combination of different textures and tastes. My favourite was the Rhubarb Lassi (with rosewater ice cream) and Bubble Tea (Matcha, tapioca). The other two (Pina Colada and Rootbeer float) were too sweet for my liking. Overall, we all think the desserts were the star of the whole experience.
Service was friendly and prompt. One of the dessert was on the house since we were celebrating for our coworkers. It was so nice of them.
I would definitely come back for lunch. Mind you the portion is not big but I would say sufficient for lunch. The daily lunch prix fixe menu change regularly, so it would be great to come often to try different dishes.
