King East condo dwellers are lucky to have a neighbourhood gem like this intimate little bistro. With its accessibly priced menu of continental-influenced comfort dishes, and a lone server who tends to locals and newcomers alike with charming familiarity, it’s a relaxed place to spend an evening. Tender morsels of beef tartare spiked with hot sauce open the meal with an eye- and mouth-watering snap, building anticipation for the main event: asiago-and-parmesan mac and cheese with cubes of bacon that’s better than anything Mom ever made, even if it is a tad dry. Chicken paillard, a thin, schnitzel-like cutlet, is bathed in a glorious mustard cream sauce. A chalkboard heralds the day’s desserts, including a cookie plate with delightfully sticky, warm-from-the-oven coconut macaroons, unctuous brownies, and lemon shortbread so delicate it dissolves on the tongue. Small, affordable wine list. Mains $14–$23.
