chicken fingers to escargot , but Thai chilli tacos are the starter of choice , the parcels packing major heat . Slow roasted pulled chicken and a scoop of corn Pico de gallo topped with crispy wontons combine cool with caliente .
Nods to locally sourced ingredients include crispy pickerel cheeks , tossed in hemp seed and lemon pepper . Herbivores will love the selection of greens portioned for sharing . Salads are crisp and bright , laced with julienne carrots . Fresh fruit salad is naturally flavourful with robust doses of strawberries , blueberries , pineapple and chopped cucumber to keep palates pleased and waistlines in check . Roasted beet and caramelized onion salad with pea shoots and a healthy pile of greens is another joyful jumble .
Go all in with things between bread , such as the soy ginger grilled chicken burger . Nestled in a plate of fries , the bun just barely contains the meat . Pillow-like bread soaks up juices
