Friday I finally tried LABO, I knew of it before it opened and have been unlucky in the only time I came upon it while it was open was right after I'd had dinner. The subsequent visits there were closed due to private functions.
I was not disappointed.
I found that the menu under sells the food. The Braised Lamb shoulder sandwich with raquette, grape tomato, spanish onion and fresh herbs is more of a pizza than sandwich. You couldn't get fresher flat bread as it is grilled just prior to the composition of the open-faced sandwich.
This evening's theme was Summer in Southern Italy - true to this - the ingredients were fresh & of the finest quality.
The have a reasonably selection of wines by the glass.
For dessert the Strawberries and Whipped Ricotta was more; yes there were Quebec strawberries, small raspberries and blackberries with ricotta but they sat on a golden Olive Oil cake (prepared with Semolina giving it an almost nutty texture).
The presentation of the plates equaled the flavour of the plates - the eyes feasted as well.
I will be back.
