We were at a charity BBQ near by and could have done with with another dog each but supplies were dwindling and crowds were getting tenser and we decided to make a break for it and head to Taste near by as i've heard from some other elites that it's small bites and very good. Given that we had eaten but were still hungry, small plates was rather ideal I thought.
Our table ordered:
white bean dip
warm olives
mango salad rolls
pork belly (I didn't eat)
seared scallops (i didn't eat)
blueberry perogies
coconut panacotta
As a vegetarian, I skipped two and it seems there were the table's highlights. Which leaves me - not sure what I thought.
the mango salad rolls were a let down - I didn't taste the mango at all and they were falling apart. 2 rolls cost $10. I got 3 rolls for $5.75 from my work's convienience store and I think I like them better.
White bean dip was delicious and I loved the panbread toasties. This was my favorite of the meal.
warm olives were OK and not bad for $5 but it was a lot of olives to sit there and eat. I don't think I'd fancy that again without a larger group.
The panacotta was good and I'm not a fan of coconut or pineapple so that's impressive.
The blueberry perogies were kind of like turnovers that taco time offered at one point. They were good but reminded me of fast food and thus cost too much.
Overall I was a bit disappointed for my share of the $120 bill but I seemed to be the only one of our three. Considering I went from kinda still hungry after eating to satisfied but not stuffed... I'm really not super happy about the cost to taste and satisfaction factor. Although I'd visit taste again for another go, only one of my dishes was something i'd reorder.
