| - Odd little cafe on the border of Chinatown and Downtown Toronto, but every dish is lovingly cooked to order and tasted FRESH!
2 ways to order - a la carte or 3 course prix fixe ($15 for lunch, $25 for dinner).
GET THE PRIX FRIE... so much bang for the buck!!
appetizers ..
we tried their organic kale salad with mango, dragon fruit, grapes, melons, hints of mint dressed with maple vinaigrette. SO refreshing and tasty!!
also had their quail which was extremely tender, juicy and so much flavor!!
entrees..
DOUBLE CUT PORK CHOP!! It was huge!! Came with a side of veggies and mash potatoes. Great flavor, very tender. LOVED the crushed cashews on top... a good crunch to the sear.
Swordfish ... while very fresh and tasty. It tasted like a continuation of our salad because they use the same fruits as the salad. Suggest they recommend pairings so everything doesn't taste the same throughout. Also had a side of mash and veggies, which was too much for fish imo. It should've gone with a side bed of rice or quinoa, wheatberry... to be more diverse, and innovative.
desserts..
we loved the simple strawberry sorbet . the panna cotta was good but it had strange tasting sauce at the bottom that didn't mix well..
ALL IN ALL... a STEAL for the quality and amount. Service is also beyond friendly!! Worth a stop! :)
