  • I Love this restaurant. This review is just me totaly fangirling this place. Edulis has everything that I look for in a dining establishment: top-notch ingredients, unpretentious preparation, and intimate atmosphere. The focus here is definitely the food and the diner. It's nice to be able to go to dinner and not feel inadequate because I'm not wearing a skin tight dress. The noise level is perfect for a social meal; it's a warm buzzing of friendly conversations without heavy bass beats banging my eardrums. Everything about Edulis is perfection because it is so effortless on the part of the guest yet everything that comes out of the kitchen is so ridiculously mindblowing. Before visiting the restaurant, I called and asked if we could do a special prix fixe menu because I wanted truffles on everything (they have a small and large carte blanche on their menu). I told them that we could do around $100 per person and the chef said it was doable. We arrived at the restaurant not knowing what to expect at all. I have tried a couple of prix fixe menus over $100 before and my expectations were never surpassed -- once I even found myself eating a hamburger afterwards. Since I told them I wanted truffle errthang, I really thought we'd get dainty little dishes with sprinkles of truffle soot. Man, was I wrong (in a good way)!! I can't recall all the dishes individually because it's been a while since the meal so please forgive me for the lack of gastronomic details (again...this is nothing more than a personal fangirl post). The first several dishes arrived and all had substantial shavings of truffle. The truffles really worked well with the other ingredient rather than upstaging them (which is what I usually find with truffle oil) but still maintaining its star status in every plate. I thought the chef is going to give us a lot of truffles in a few courses ... but the plates kept coming (yehh =D)! By the end of the meal, I was stuffed but I still couldn't stop eating because everything was sooooo good. All the flavours were hearty and relatable. I was glad that I was't paying for foams and painstaking garnishes. . such a cathartic experience when you can eat something rare to your palate and be able to relate to it and genuinely enjoying the flavours as supposed to eating something expensive and reacting like "I don't know if I really like this but there's nothing to dislike. Everyone else seem like love this stuff so I guess this is good food". Even writing this review and revisiting these memories invoke the euphoric feelings my taste buds had that night. It's amazing how a really exceptional restaurant can create the feeling of happiness and let that feeling relive again every time the diner recounts that meal. That is what that meal at Edulis did for me and I can't wait to go back again!!!
