Errrrrrrbody be recommending I hit up the distillery district, so thank goodness we had the cutest of lady's to show us around mill st. A-MA-ZING. First off the distillery district? If you have never been, you simply must go. I was there at dark and with everything closed and I still fell in love. We went with the intentions of grabbing wings and a ever so famous vanilla porter. They unfortunately poured the last vanilla porter when we ordered--travesty.
We settled for a round of cobblestone stout and wings to start. Both were phenom. I haven't dabbled much into the world of dark and bitter beers. But I did seem to enjoy this particular brew. I found it smooth with little aftertaste and nutty-ness. The hot wings were so so so good! Even I found them just a touch too hot- how I like them. The bbq ones were pretty tasty as well. Lots of meat on the bone, no anorexic chickens used at mill st.
My boyfriend ordered the grilled flat iron steak sandy, of which he raved about the entire trip. I had a little nibble, for yelp-age sake and I can agree. I had the portobello sandwich as I couldn't resist even the slightest amount of goat cheese. My favorite part had to actually be the fries. Crispy and golden with what appeared to be sea salt. The sandwich itself was yummy, but I felt more goat cheese was needed and a little less portobello.
All around awesome meal. Not to mention the unbelievable atmosphere, Very neat inside with a working fireplace. This was our favorite meal in TO... so far!
I must go back for vanilla porter, I just must. The beer selection is thrrrrrrough the roof.
