Summerlicous


So tonight was Summerlicous night. Every winter and summer the more fancy restaurants in the city do a prix fixe menu and every winter and summer I make sure I attend. This time we tried to stay in our neighbourhood and ended up at Grappa.


I apologize, I forgot to take a photo of my appetizer but I started off with a mango and bell pepper salad. There were too many sliced almonds on it for my liking but it was quite tasty. The mango and pepper was very sweet which was a nice change to the bitter stuff I've been having lately.



The main course was stuffed pork tenderloin which I think could have been a little more tender but the apricot sauce was very tasty. I loved the fresh veggies you got with it. I've had a lot of frozen ones while out lately but these were great. The red pepper gave me some worry as I thought it may be a hot one but it turned out to be one of the sweetest ones I have ever had. Overall I was quite happy.


Dessert was a vanilla creme brulee with raspberries. It was probably the biggest one I have ever had. I haven't had much experience with this but I found it to be very creamy and satisfying.

I would definitely say it was a good choice. The service was good and it was nice to be in a place where you didn't have to scream at your friends.
