-Chicken Liver Mousse:
The best dish I ate there. The mousse had a smooth consistency that was in perfect contrast with the heavy and rustic spiced carrot bread. Since the chicken liver mousse can be a bit rich, the huckleberries gave a hint of acidity and sweetness to help cut out the fat. However my only "oh no" with this dish was how there should have been more pieces of bread, but I licked the plate clean and I would have gone back just for this dish.
-Kung Pao Cauliflower:
it really tasted like kung pao chicken! The cauliflower had a crisp exterior, not too saucy and had some crunchy texture with the cashews. I believe there was some acidity in the sauce, so the cauliflower was really easy to eat and prepare us for the next course.
-Mushroom Wellington:
The buttery and flaky puff pastry encased the beefy portobello mushroom, and it was seasoned well so I didn't miss the beef at all, this is a perfect dish for a vegetarian :)! The truffle enhanced the earthy flavor of the mushroom and the tangy onion jam really helped to cut down the heaviness of the wellington.
-'Fish & Chips':
This is Thoroughbred's take on the typical fish and chips. The fish was an Ontario rainbow trout, it was not pan fried nor deep fried so I think it was cooked with by sous-vide technique?
The fish had a soft and delicate texture, and the homemade chips were lightly salted, which went really well with the fish. With that said, I wish there would have been more pieces of potato chips though :(.
-Chocolate Hazelnut Tart:
To be honest I was quite disappointed when I realized that there was only half of the tart on the plate, I felt cheated lol. Luckily my friend was already quite full from her previous dishes, and the tart itself was quite heavy, so I can forgive that half-a-tart issue lol. The tart had a nice crust to fillings ratio. The filling was a semi-dark chocolate which didn't overpower the hazelnut taste. Overall the tart had a perfect level of chocolate flavor with a little sweetness!
-Buttermilk Pana Cotta:
I'm not sure what were they trying to do with the presentation! When the bowl arrived, the ice cream already melted, and the pana cotta had a really weird texture..... It was melting as well. The slightly sour rhubarb cut through the sweetness of the pana cotta, and you are getting some crunchy texture from that... triangle foamy thing lol... It tasted like yogurt hahaha. I just though the portion was small and had a messy presentation, otherwise it was a pretty good dessert.
