| - Visited The Saint on a very snowy weekday for Winterlicious. For $25, it was well worth it, especially considering how many people complain about the prices here.
For appies, we had the pierogies and the Reuben Sausage. The pierogies were tasty, but the sausage was amazing - totally captured the Reuben flavour without the carbs and the Russian dressing was on point. TBH, I was kinda sad I had to split with the boyf because it was so delicious. For mains, we had the burger and the braised beef - both very good. We got an extra side of bone marrow mayo for the fries, and it was amazing, but I'm total sucker for flavoured mayo. The creamed barley with the beef was perfect for the weather: rich & warm. For dessert, we had the chocolate mousse and the cheese plate. The warm chocolate mousse was nice with cold ice cream, but it wasn't super memorable. Even though I thought the cheese was a little plain, I loved that they had a non-sweet offering for dessert because I'm not a huge dessert fan. And the (onion?) chutney was great with the crispy bread and the salty little cornichons.
