sidecar

who knew loving and adoring a puppy took up so much time? i have been absent from a culinary cabaret, but i am back. i have so many reviews lined up you'll be blown away.
about a month ago, af and i headed out to see joshua radin in concert (again) at an intimate venue on college street. before the show, we headed to sidecar for some pre-show dinner. i have heard a lot of hype about sidecar and was happy to finally make it there. we enjoyed a quick, delicious meal with fresh ingredients that were palette-pleasing. i would definitely head back, and perhaps dine on the back patio which seemed to have a great atmosphere.


we each ordered a glass of the 2010 angel's gate reisling
delicious bread, great texture and flavours
incredible salad (that they split into two bowls for us)
chopped jicama, red onion, cucumber, tomato, radish, feta, creamy oregano dressing

i ordered the tasty steak frites: AAA 8oz centre cut top sirloin, hand cut fries,
tangy roasted garlic aioli

af indulged in the papardelle:
braised short ribs, aged cheddar, king oyster mushrooms
with san marzano tomato sauce with spanish onion 


overall, we were both very pleased with our whole evening (especially because we had great seats to the concert and even got to meet joshua radin afterwars)! thanks sidecar for starting it off on the right note, we will be back! Sidecar on Urbanspoon

music and a meal

over a month ago (that's embarrassing and highlights my tardiness), AF and i had a much-anticipated after-work date. we were so excited and had been planning it for quite some time.
we met on the danforth around 6pm, as we were seeing joshua radin's concert at the beautiful danforth music hall later on. we headed straight to the highly acclaimed allen's, a staple for anyone who lives remotely close to the danforth. it did not disappoint, see below.
