We love restaurants that serve market-fresh cuisine, but sometimes its
nice to have an idea of what to expect.
With an ever-changing chalkboard menu, one thing that doesnt change
is Le
Comptoir Charcuteries et Vins commitment to cured meats. Start with
the large charcuterie plate ($15) filled with flavourful house-cured
sausage, velvety pâtés and tasty terrines, served with a tangy mustard
and pickles. What follows may change from week to week, but if its on
the menu we strongly recommend the flaky halibut with cucumbers, feta,
dill and crispy tempura onions ($16; youll never look at onion rings the
same way again) and the luscious lobster tart with confit tomatoes,
crème fraiche and arugula ($19).
Expectations? Exceeded. Jennifer Nachshen
