| - Thank goodness for summerlicious!!!
Earth Rosdale Global is around the corner from Rosedale TTC Subway station, so its location is very convenient.
First off, the decor and ambience is creates a calm, chic, yet romantic setting with the dim avant lighting, soft cushiony seats, and booths. Not to mention they have an enclosed patio facing Yonge St. or their optional courtyard patio. The open concept kitchen makes this place look a lot bigger, so its a plus! Came here with THE MOM for an early dinner. Thankfully we were able to try each others dishes so I was able to comment on so many lol!!! most of all ...ITS ALL LOCAL INGREDIENTS!
Chilled Courgette Soup 4/5
Garlic croutons, goat's cheese, fresh herbs. The goat cheesereally brought out the characteristics of this soup, adding a salty yet creamy and smooth kick to the bowl. The croutons helped absorb the goat cheese along with the courgette. Very creative indeed!!
Smoked Sturgeon 5/5
Sorrel potato salad, pickled onions, upland cress.
Lets just say WOW!! you can taste the lovely smokey flavor of this sturgeon! yum all the way, it felt like eating raw, though cooked, sushi lol... the pickled onions balanced the more blander flavors of the potato salad which inevitably complimented the sturgeon!
Hay Roasted Pork Tenderloin 4.5/5
Algonquin corn grits, savoy spinach, charred red onion chutney.
Perfect balance of sweetness with the corn grits, and red onions to compliment the charred pork. The savoy spinach was a great addition to this dish since there were strong flavorful components to this meal....it definitely added balance!!
Grilled Flank Steak (upgrade to Tenderloin) 4.5/5
Northern woods mushroom pea fricassee, allumette potato, scallion pesto
we upgraded this dish and ordered their tenderloin cut, and we were glad, cooked medium well, the allumette potato is a must!!
Pistachio Custard 4/5
Chocolate mousse, dacquoise, sea salt
No better way to end it off with a smooth, savory, not overly sweet chocolate mousse! perfect all the way
Dulce de Leche Ice Cream Sandwich 3.5/5
Chocolate ganache
You can never go wrong with this, however had a tough time trying to break it with my spoon...though yummy! it was quite hard...lol
Overall this is an awesome place, and I'm glad that I was able to kick my summerlicious off on the right foot.
