It was the Group of Seven actually. We had +2 Ladies beside one of our late arrivals of the night. If you look at Rafi N's photos, you'll notice they were Twins and one was fully dressed while the other naked. (http://www.yelp.ca/user_local_photos?userid=jUs4iTWJAjGGMSWp6QV8UQ)
Looking at the Menu, I didn't see my Name on it anywhere(http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/GqSA5t_OD1uxDZMwVLpoXA?select=CvMJkqSFQNw00uF-7Xt40Q). Decided to get a taste of Marben by random-sample method instead. Otherwise known as let the Lady choose while I lay back and enjoy the interaction between Friends.
Flavour-wise, no complaints whatsoever. In fact, Boar Belly was Pork-fat chicharrony crunch savoury oily cholesterol bite of death. Well almost because the Pork Belly portion size was equivalent to an Amuse Bouche/Tapas, hardly going to make anyone OD on Fat content or Food volume. 911 not required. Sugar Momma/Poppa optional.
Btw, the place was quite romantic dim lighting which made everything that accompanied the protein to look like brown vegetation mixture. Make sure someone has flash on their cellphone to make sure you don't get any additional surprises. Either that or ask for a candle per person instead of per table. 2.5'd
Service was a better part only that I wish I knew if it was their mistake or the kitchens mistake on the extended delay firing of our dishes. The waitress must have gotten a HINT actually when you have the 1000+ review Yelper tell you someone is hungry, that is by no means a small hint. They must have made it a strategy to fit in a few more Beers into the western girl?
Ryan's Charcuterie($11.00)
John's Burger($17.00)

Summary:
I enjoyed the Food/Ambiance but in that time between servings I could have eaten a Burger nearby and returned before the end of second-intermission. I've had empty stomachs leaving high-end restaurants before, I guess I'll add Marben to the list. I would have thought differently if it was bonus paycheque season during my diet phase and I'm in a jolly mood.
