Dinner at
The Gabardine

by Innovative Community 11 Comments

I was out with some friends this weekend when one of them mentioned the amazing meal they’d had at The Gabardine. Never having heard of it the timing couldn’t have been more perfect as I had plans on Monday for dinner with a friend and needed a spot in the downtown core. A quick look at the online menu and I knew we were in for a decadent meal. Located at Richmond and Bay, a seemingly unlikely spot for such a cozy and welcoming restaurant. The Gabardine is nestled into the main floor of the Sterling Tower, the décor is very reminiscent of a trendy New York café with its white paneled walls, tin tiled ceiling, and loads of framed vintage newspaper clippings. The service was great, our server and support staff all very friendly and knowledgeable about their fare. The food was rich, full of flavour and loaded with quality fresh ingredients. I had the Crushed Ontario Sweet Pea salad with Bufala to start and the Braised Mushroom Sandwich with Blue Haze as my main. Both were delicious, and the potato salad side cannot be overlooked! We shared the Maple Soaked Bread Pudding with Homemade Toffee for dessert… I would go back for that alone! The menu provided lots of options for herbivores and carnivores alike and it’s a great place to catch up with good friends. Definitely worth checking out!

    I seldom comment, but i did some searching and wound up here Dinner at The Gabardine – Fat Friday. And I do have 2 questions for you if it’s allright. Is it just me or does it give the impression like some of the responses come across like written by brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are writing on other online sites, I’d like to follow everything fresh you have to post. Would you list of all of your shared sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
