| - First off, here's a disclaimer. My wife has worked with and is friends with Chef Paul Boemer. That being said, I've loved his food since he was at the Prince of Wales Hotel in Niagara-On-The-Lake.
I loved this restaurant. It was one of the best meals I've had in quite some time. I started with the mushroom consomme, with was simple, but just plain amazing. However, it was the veal cheeks that were just amazing. I was in food heaven. It came with wild mushrooms and this amazing mashed potato, but, even though I love mushrooms, I could barely pay attention to them because the veal was just that good. I must say something about the dessert. I tried the Mexican chocolate dessert and I really did taste the chili's and spices in it. I hate to disagree with another Yelper, so I'll say that one of us got the anomaly. Since I know and like Paul, my bias points toward the me getting the norm. OK, I've gushed enough. All I can say is that I really badly want to go back.
The ambiance is really cool and there was quite the mix of people there. It did get a little loud, but I'm the guy who likes a really quiet place anyway. I wonder if it's a teacher thing. Anyway, Paul has done really well and I can see things just getting better as he really hits his stride.
Call it love at first bite...and second...and third...
You get the idea.
