| - Tomi-Kro is a very happening place to have dinner on a Saturday night. The mood is upbeat and lively, the service is great and the food is delicious.
There is not much I can say about the lobster maki balls that hasn't already been said - they are worth every bit of praise they've received. I'd be tempted to make a meal out of these alone, except at 12 dollars a pair, that would be one expensive dinner, not to mention I'd miss out on all the other original menu items.
So I placated myself with half a lobster maki ball (shared the plate with my 3 dinner companions) and chose the salmon with garama masala potatoes and craime fraiche. For sides, the green beans, and coconut cauliflower.
Yum.
No complaints from anyone at the table while we chowed down.
Dessert: Dolce de lece cheesecake and a latte. Also had a bite of the Key Lime Pie, and though I was happy with the cheesecake, the Key Lime was definitely the more flavourful option.
I asked the waiter what "Tomi-Kro" means. He said it means "small space" in Greek. I pointed out that "To Mikro" means "the small [space]", and that the hyphen is in the wrong place ("To-Mikro" would be more correct).
Perhaps that's why he spilled the last of my latte on me as he was clearing the table. No matter, this restaurant rocks, and I'll be back.
(OK the latte-spill was an accident; the server was very apologetic and I still think the service was great).
