We started with an app that was being served for the first time that night, gnocchi with dungeness crab and lobster bisque. Super delicious, if a somewhat small serving. Except for this dish, the servings were quite generous throughout. The other starter sampled was a ceviche of spot prawns, great fresh flavour with lime, avocado and shredded lettuce.\n\nMains: cioppino and lobster & grits.My order of cioppino was teeming with all manner of aquatic goodies including Texas red fish, which was unknown to me, in a flavourful broth; served with grilled sourdough and rouille. My wife's lobster with grits was really outstanding; chunks of lobster on a bed of grits; intermingled were crispy crunchy fried shallots, red peppers and bacon, all sauced with a roasted red pepper sauce. Unfortunately we failed to finish either dish because we wanted to leave room for the acclaimed bread pudding. We were not disappointed with a very large serving of very rich and buttery bread set in a Caramel sauce, tweaked with Jack Daniels and toasted pecans.\n\nLaid back and charming could be used to describe the atmosphere, with professional service. \n\nA little off the beaten track, Kitchenette is directly across the street from the Radio Canada CBC building; definitely worth a detour."^^ .
