| - This is the perfect place for outgoing foodie people who like to try new and flavourful items.
The type of groups I saw:
- date night
- girls bday dinner
- intimate friends' dinner
Being new to the Toronto restaurant scene (opened 2 months ago), our waitress was extremely knowledgeable in the food itself, the restaurant and the waitress was very professional. She offer many suggestions when we felt slightly overwhelmed by the menu.
We initially came just for desserts, but ended up tasting a few apps before our "dessert main course -el huevo Malo".
Apps (beware they are tiny tiny-that's why I couldn't give it 5 stars):
- The Octopus was perfectly fried (like it was dipped for half a second) paired with a spicy sauce for a nice kick
- Mira Ceviche, the fish was fresh and as well the whole dish was a great ensemble (cubes of sweet potatoes was a nice touch).
- Salmon teriyaki was flavourful (below was pool of sauce to dip/drench in) and not over-cooked with a nice body and juicy-ness in each bite.
Desserts:
- Cachangas Peruanas was like a dessert pizza on top of the lightly and crispy tostada and in top was a heavy topping of sweet and tangy flavours (sherbets, edible flowers, papaya, dragonfruit etc). Even tho this had no hint of chocolate in it, I was floored at how good it tasted all together!
- El Huevo Malo was the famous chocolate ball. Since it was all chocolate, this could easily be split between 3-6 ppl. The mouse was delicious was was the coffee ice cream sitting on top of a chocolate cake (which tasted more of a cake-y pudding texture). It was very sweet, so share it as much as possible!
Overall, I enjoyed my food experience here. The service and the atmosphere were added bonus.
