Restaurants

North Toronto

AUBERGE DU POMMIER        French
Exceptionally peaceful "country-in-the-city" atmosphere, perfect for romantic and special occasions. Two restored century-old cottages, with fireplaces, wooden-beam ceilings, terrace with a stone fountain and flower-filled garden. The French cuisine moderne is pure poetry. For appetizers try a light mousse of smoked trout, poppy-seed pastry, or crabmeat remoulade. Main courses include fowl, venison, fresh caught fish and seasonal shellfish. Desserts are sybaritic. Attentive service. Substantial, yet reasonable wine list.

Bold and beautiful. An extraordinary dining experience, with dazzling, imaginatively prepared Euro-Asian cuisine. Sought-after items of choice include succulent roast rack of tender spring lamb as well as the assorted seafood platter, visually resplendent with grilled lobster, jumbo-sized prawns, crab, and delicious sea scallops.  Exotic fare includes barbecued ostrich festooned with risotto of roasted tomato. The grilled dishes in particular are faultless and accompanied by huge flavours.  Flamboyant Terra stakes claim to also being one of the city's finest bars.
