La Carnita

 

Fantastic food from @chefjonhamilton @TastyNate & @sashabogin @la_carnita

@la_carnita continues to have some of my favorite dishes in Toronto.

With exception of a brief period, I think I've been here at least once a week! I've lost track of just how many times I've been here.... I just never get bored of the food, drink, and music! Even tho I'm here so often, I still take a picture of everything I eat (I'm Asian, I can't help it lol)

Anyways, here's some of their recent specials...

@sashabogin made a sexually Salted carmel pudding covered in naughty Mexican chocolate cookie crumble, tastes like Werther's Original

 

@Ninjachefnick featured octopus taco with caponata, on jicama root

 

Mexican gangster cemitas sandwiches with confit G money pork, pickled things, and japaleeenoos hawt sauce

Richmond Station

Opening night dinner Top Chef winner @ChefHeinrich's @RichmondStation last night w/ @leftbanked.

It's great when everything just works out. I had an alumni event for my alma mater at 1 King West the same night that Richmond Station had their grand opening. Being in the area I thought I'd check it out...

Here's their full menu that plan to serve in the coming week or so. For now you have to order off a limited menu.

 

 

 

Here's the menu for now.

 

Kickstart Old Fashioned $10


Polenta Fries $8


Beef Tartare $13


Roasted Wild Boar Loin $26


Kohlrabi Ravioli $23

 

Station S'mores $9

 

Butternut Squash Cake $9

 

Pumpkin cakes, come's with the bill.

 

...and in typical fashion, I'm one of the last one's in the restaurant

 

IMHO the dishes were $2-3 over priced, that said, the food was tasty, well executed, and service was wonderful. Will defeinately be back again for the rest of the menu. Keep up the great work!
