I LOVE fresh buffalo mozzarella. When I went to Italy, thats all I ate everyday. Being back in Toronto, I was determined to find the real deal. Then I found obika. I actually saw this restaurant at the airport in Naples and wanted to try (didnt get to try it though due to no time) and was excited to try it at the toronto location.
Firstly, the cheese IS THE REAL DEAL. I tried the trio and loved the classic and the burrata. Wasn't a fan of the smoked one. I felt that the texture and the flavor messed with the delicious creaminess of the original.
Along with the cheese, we ordered some fritti and some other accompaniments to go with the cheese (tomato and basic- i expected fresh tomato and fresh basic but they were both ground up and swimming in olive oil and way overpriced for something that looked like dipping sauce in appearance and size). The fritti was a bit of a fail for me, they were cold and didn't seem fresh made. Also the accompaniments were meh.
I haven't tried the pizza and the pasta but I might give it a try.
Just know that the cheese there is top notch and worth the price in my opinion. Hey it's cheaper than flying to Naples for a bite anyway.
