| - We had a lovely meal at Blink a few weeks ago. It was one of those places I kept hearing about, but we just never found the time to go, which we regret now.
We had the salumi cheese appetizer, plus the wild mushroom soup. Both were fantastic and we were literally licking the pesto sauce for the salumi off the plate. They have beautiful, crusty bread, which of course is a secret where they get it from *darn*
My husband had Moroccan chicken, which is a bit disappointing; I thought it tasted fairly bland, but it was well prepared. My rabbit with gnocchi was amazing and I had to hide it from my husband who kept stealing bits off my plate. We both shared the sticky toffee pudding, which was a bit of delicous, suprisingly very light, sweetness to end the evening. The room was modern but had a slight romantic feel to it with warm grey tones and candles in the evening. We sat near the window in an alcove. Fine for summer, but a bit chilly for fall weather.
Service was very good, but slightly fake at the beginning, and our server seemed to warm up to us in the end; other staff were very warm and friendly. This place is a winner and our new "to go" place when dining after work downtown.
