Food Scene

This cozy little Italian Bistro is one of our favourite spots in the city. Classy casual atmosphere with share tables, a gorgeous wine bar and morning coffee bar. Open from 8am until 2am. The chef, Rob Gentile is one of the best in the city. A reasonably priced gastronomic experience in a very cool setting.
