I spent a week in your great city and wanted to share what my food highlights were:
Pic 1 Avec – was excellent and would have loved to have gone again during my trip to try other dishes
Pics 2-3 Boka – was good, didn’t leave a huge impression, but the dessert was delicious.
Pic 4 Del Seoul – tacos were good, very flavorful, went for lunch
5-9 Oriole – excellent and definitely the best meal that I had- not only for the food and service but the overall experience, all were fantastic
Pics 10-12 Kasama – I went on a Wednesday morning getting there by 8:45 and the line was already massive. I joined the line while I debated whether I was going to stay or do take out. I opted for take out – my pick up time was 10:30. When I went back the people who had been ahead of me in line were still waiting so I was glad that I had gotten taken out and I ate my food in the little bench area that they have outside. As for the food my favourite was the drink (black sesame latte) and the cinnamon roll. The egg on the sandwich had a weird texture for me and I ended up eating the sandwich without it. The blueberry muffin top was okay…so if I were to ever go again, I would definitely do take out. When I went in to get my food, the place was loud, hot and small. I don’t think I would have enjoyed eating in as a result and it was actually nice to eat outside.
Pics 13-15 Monteverde – good food, pasta was delicious, did not care for the tiramisu – it was too sweet and untraditional- I don’t think I would go back but it was nice to try
Pic 16 – Akahoshi Ramen – delicious! one of my favorite meals and I wish I had been able to go back for another bowl. Service was also great
Pics 17-18 – Maxwells Trading – another highlight and another place I would have liked to have gone to again to try other dishes, also one of my favorite meals – the Japanese sweet potato dish was insanely delicious
Pic 19 – Ramen San – for me, was mediocre in comparison to Akahoshi – the ramen lacked flavour
I also went to Frontera Grill which was really good as well and another place I would have liked to have gone to again while I was there
My hotel was near Beatrix and I went there a few times for breakfast and the food was yummy, including the bakery.
I had such a fun trip and the food was definitely a highlight – look forward to visiting again and getting to the many other places I wanted to try.
