| - During a business trip to Toronto, our Canadian-based clients had suggested that we catch up on some business matters over breakfast at one of their local favorites. My manager, however, wound up rerouting us to Annona, the restaurant in his hotel...perfectly convenient for his early morning commute down in the elevator, of course!
When I finally managed to arrive across town at that early hour, I found myself in the gorgeous Park Hyatt Hotel with its gracious valet staff and elegantly appointed lobby. The restaurant was decorated like any other upscale hotel eatery in that it managed to be both fancy, yet under-stated at the same time. The staff was extremely friendly and efficient, constantly refilling our beverages, checking on our meal satisfaction, and so on.
My egg white omelet was fluffy and perfectly cooked. The side of fresh berries included plump, ripe blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. The freshly-squeezed orange juice and bold coffee were also enjoyable.
Annona provided the perfect mix of casualness and refinement that was necessary for our business meal. In the end, I guess that the destination was actually worth the trip and my manager's satisfaction!
