One of EnRoutes best new restaurants of 2012 is Chef Martin Juneaus Pastaga,
located smack-dab between Mile End and Little Italy.
As soon as we were seated at our rustic wooden table illuminated by
industrial-esque light fixtures, our eyes wandered towards the
almost-open kitchen, which is behind a glass wall. Ever since Pastaga
opened last spring, the restaurant has garnered great reviews and
recently received the ultimate honour from EnRoute.
Our picks? Charlotte, a goat cheese, marinated beet and pistachio
concoction ($14), is delectable; and our partner in crime is still
raving about his bison tartare ($16).
The small-ish plates are perfect for sharing, one of the hottest dining
trends du jour. Also notable is the natural wine list (think no added
sulfites), which begins at $30.
A definite must-visit (again and again). Elsa Vecchi and Christine
