This is home to one of the most eccentric and creative menus that I've encountered. The uniqueness makes Black Hoof a must stop for dinner in Toronto.
We started with pistachio hummus with chicken liver. There was something ingenious about this dish. Conceptually, it was a sort of Turkish fusion. Each bite had a wide range of textures starting with the creaminess of the hummus to the crispiness of the chicken liver and finishing off with the crunchiness of the pistachios.
Next, we had the horse tartar. This is a must order simply because of the uniqueness. I've never seen this anywhere else in the world.
For the main course, we split a special - the heirloom tomato salad with buffalo yogurt. This dish was similar in methodology to the first starter but very different in terms of concept and ingredients. It showcased a great range of flavors and tastes.
The service is great and you can't go wrong with the beer menu here! Note, they only accept cash and Canadian debit.
