The Thai green curry was delicious. The beef was very tender and the curry fragrant. Lunch special was $10 so it was good value for money. The decor was nice and the location was great.

Approximate cost: $10

I often come here for their garlic butter chicken. Very tasty (if slightly on the salty side). The eggplant is also very good. Service is speedy but atmosphere is often noisy. Good value for money.

Ordered grilled vegetable stack for dinner - very tasty and enjoyable. My friend's BLT was also good. Bought a groupon so it was good value.

First time having fondue. Ordered meat fondue - not what I was expecting - the fondue broth was thin and didn't flavor the meat at all - I guess I was expecting it would be gravy like. The fondue came with 3 sauces and I especially liked the Bearnaise. The rosti was nice. The price was not cheap but it was a fun experience. Would like to come back to try the cheese fondue sometime.

This is a cozy little coffee shop with style and personality. The place was quite busy when I visited so service was a bit slow. I'm ordered hot chocolate with two paninis which were delicious. The panini with sweet potato and feta was especially yummy.

The seared salmon was great - cooked in front of you then fresh from the train. I also recommend the fried pork chop (good value at $3.50) The place also offers a selection of non traditional Japanese food (including some dimsum). The downside is sometimes you don't know how long the food has been sitting on the train (my tempura vegetable was cold). Overall I would recommend the place and plan to go back on a $2/plate day!

Went to try this new gyoza place on Sunday lunch and it was packed. It offers a selection of gyoza and a few other japanese side dishes. The price was a bit on the high side ($8 for 5 pieces) but the atmosphere was great (funky decor, food cooked in front of you, fast service - authentic Japanese experience). The gyoza were ok - I ordered duck gyoza and my friend had pork gyoza. Overall a fun experience.

Approximate cost: $8

I had the soup special on a cold day. It came with a big piece of bread with nuts baked into it which I thought was very interesting. The soup was hearty and went well with the bread. There are tables facing the street which was a nice touch and the place appeared quite popular.

Approximate cost: $10
