Forget about brunch, supper at Lawrence is what makes this place truly unique!
We went during Grand-Prix weekend and despite us messing up the reservation time and showing up 45 mins late, they still kept our table once we called to advise them of our tardiness. Talk about excellent service!
The decor is very casual but very inviting with wooden tables, art-deco chairs and staff in jeans and black t-shirts.
The menu is simple yet varied in their choices of more unfamiliar cuts of meat (think pigs ear, oxtail, pigs feet).
So many original dishes I wanted to try but with the help of the waitress, we finally settled on the seaweed ravioli, octopus with merguez sausages and braised oxtail.
All dishes were delicious, however the oxtail really stood out for us and made us utterly speechless as we devoured the oh-so tender meat and the heaven sent buttery polenta.
It was such a mouth watering dish that I'm still drooling as I write this!
Dessert was also very good, we had the caramel and fleur-de-sel tarte. I could really taste both flavors and they we're balanced to perfection!
The bill was also a nice surprise as it came out to under 150 after tax with 4 glasses of wine.
We will definitely return as this place has become a new favorite of ours!
