| - Came here for a company lunch where we were served a set three course lunch with some choices for the appetizer, main, and dessert. I chose the minestrone soup, mushroom risotto, and the seasonal panna cotta.
The minestrone soup was mediocre, to be honest. It didn't leave a lasting impression, but was definitely perfect given the chilly weather outside. I tried some of my friend's turkey meatballs, and it was quite good. Not too dry, though it could have benefitted from more sauce. It was also a generous portion, with three massive fist sized turkey balls.
I was originally very excited for the mushroom risotto, but ultimately found it quite disappointing. Mine was super creamy and buttery, which was nice; however, I found it too runny. My friend had ordered the same thing, but hers was much drier. In other words, the restaurant quality was inconsistent. I left it largely untouched...
I finished with the panna cotta. It had poached pears with candied pistachios on the side, and I enjoyed it very much. In fact, I ate them all from the outset. The panna cotta was slightly firm and tasted a bit too strongly of cream cheese for some reason, but was still decent. I also had a bite of my friend's tiramisu, and found it very light, spongey, but rich in espresso flavour. Was pretty good!
