| - I don't get why Smash gets all the love for good spots in Unionville because Inspire is much better. It's quieter than Smash (i.e., easy to miss with its simple sign, a much smaller - and cozier - space), but its food speaks volumes. We got:
- Chicken and Waffles: I looooooove chicken and waffles, and this one was really good. They were pretty generous with their serving, making it a waffle sandwich (i.e., waffles on both the top and bottom of the chicken), and had 4 sizeable chicken pieces. I usually like mine simple with just maple syrup but Inspire had it with a berry sauce. I had my doubts whether that would work, but it definitelt did, with the tartiness complementing the chicken and waffles really well.
- Inspire Burger: The burger was huge and the taste was pretty good (pork belly and fried egg on it were nice touches), so overall an ok dish and you get value for money. The interesting thing was the pulled pork fries we got with it. The pork was standard but they put this veggie slaw thing that made it interesting. Can't decide whether it made it better or worse actually, but interesting for sure.
- Kahlua tiramusu cheesecake: So good! If you're the type who likes to taste the cheese chunks in a cheesecake (versus it tasting just like smooth cream), go for this. The Kahlua flavour also definitely came through.
Other notes: Service was fine, place had the right mix of an energetic vibe but quiet enough to have good conversations, and parking on the street and in a backlot are readily available. Highly recommend trying Inspire out.
