The neighborhood is as fascinating as it can get; in the heart of Little Portugal/Kensington Market. The squash ginger soup was outstanding and the salad was innovative and good--lots of textures and unusual ingredients. It would be great to have a non-tofu option but it's not really customizable. The service was competent but not overly welcoming compared to the friendliness of other places in Toronto. I would certainly go here again because it was evident the owners and staff believe in what they're doing and are committed to providing high quality, interesting options. The atmosphere was homey but sophisticated--nothing pretentious here.
