Lunch downtown can be a challenge some days especially when you have to change your reservations last minute to another venue. We chose Catch (upstairs) because it was the only place that had availability for the time and size that we needed.
None of us have been there before and to be honest we all were kind of apprehensive of what it would be like but it turned out to be quite a good experience.
As we trekked up the stairs to the restaurant I was impressed at what I saw. Bright red booths lined one side of the restaurant and tables filled the rest. It looked welcoming and fancy which I am sure is what they are going for.
Once we sat down we were handed an iPad with the wine list, I thought this was pretty cool. One of my coworkers noticed that the beer selection was lacking however.
After giving the lunch menu a good look (there isn't that many items to choose from compared to the menu in the oyster bar downstairs) I ordered the beet salad to start. It came out looking like a piece of art and was just the right amount for a starter... it was also super tasty.
For my main lunch item I ordered the Shrimp Salad Sandwich it was very light and full of flavour. The only thing I didn't like was the bread it was on. I found it to be very hard and crunchy, so much so that the baby shrimp filling just fell out, but let me tell you this... I am still thinking about how good this sandwich tasted!
I want to defiantly come back and try more things on the menu, perhaps for dinner!
