Oh my god. Is all I can say. The cuisine here is beyond words. Absolutely sensational and unlike anything I have ever had in my life.
To preface this, you will pay through your nose to eat here. However, in my opinion it is worth every penny.
Claudio Aprile is one of Canada's best chefs and he's well known throughout culinary circles the world over. He has a gift for gastronomic experimentation that never fails to please. I had everything from sirloin to scallops to squab to several different things prepared via liquid nitrogen. It was magnificent and a dining experience I will never forget
My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and we enjoyed the tasting menu which was 10 dishes long. I couldn't list off all the things we had but they were delicious. Everything had no less than 10 ingredients but the flavours were so interesting and dynamic I was always pleasantly surprised with the innovating pairings.
Our waiter was great - very knowledgeable and pleasant, always explaining in detail what we were about to eat (which was necessary as sometimes it was hard to tell). The best part of the meal was dessert - creme fraiche that when poured into liquid nitrogen (at our table!) turned into ice cream before our eyes! We were told to scoop some out of the bowl before it was whisked away and served with a delicious donut and melt in your mouth pieces of ginger toffee. It was most definitely the highlight.
If you are a foodie and live in the city - or are visiting - go here Our meal, with wine, was close to $500 after tip but it was worth it. Five stars, hands down, the best restaurant in the city.
