Love trying new restaurants that feature seasonal ingredients and local favourites so this seemed like a good choice for a casual Friday evening.
A relatively new addition to the king west restaurant scene, I was able to book a same day reservation which could be hard to come by in the downtown core these days.
- Big wings ($16): and they mean BIG. These are giant turkey wings and you will get 2 with your order. We got the maple rye and mustard sauce which was quite tasty and I enjoyed. But something a bit off to me to eat wings the size of your face.. Definitely something different though.
- Charcuterie ($19): their in house cured meats. The prosciutto was really delicious - Perfect saltiness and fatty layer that melts in your mouth. The crunchy toasted warm bread and the homemade mustard was a winning combo.
- White bean & root vegetable ragout ($19): perhaps my least favourite of the night. Sounded very hearty and appealing but the white beans weren't cooked well enough so they were quite hard and the tomato and onion ragout was a bit too sweet.
- Braised short ribs ($26): Just okay.. The ribs were tender but not the melt in your mouth and it lacked memorable flavours.
Overall the staff was really welcoming and attentive throughout our meal and was really helpful with the menu. Maybe we just didn't order the best items on the menu but I left feeling like my palate could be more inspired.
