La Palette is a pretty interesting place. If you want to go out for a very non-kosher meal, this is a decent spot. Lots of exciting meats like horse and musk ox. I tried at least 3 meats that night, including horse, musk ox and bison. I liked the horse and the bison but could've passed on the musk ox. It tasted kind of like organ meat (liver maybe) and I can't stand that taste.
The decor is relaxed. The atmosphere is cozy (read: stuffy). Service is friendly.
The wine was mediocre, actually, somewhat disappointing for the price-point.
This location is closing down. A new one opened on Queen West.
Overall, meat was cooked properly and served with some decent sides, none of which I can retain in my memory (that good huh?)
Definitely worth a try, but I doubt I'd be going back. I'd say 3.5 stars if I could.
To put in my 2ยข about protesting horse meat: I think all animals should have equal treatment regardless of how cute and cuddly they are or how much they remind you of My Little Pony, and that fair treatment is to be raised humanely and then cooked to delicious perfection and served alongside some equally tasty carbs.
