Hello 👋🏽 friends! Life is starting to get back to normal and we have started in door dining at restaurants again 👏🏽 Our first stop was at @streetauntie_apertivo to celebrate a special birthday 🎁🎂🥳. We were impressed with their attentive service, careful following of COVID protocols, and fun presentation of their dishes! Here’s what was on their dinner tasting menu when we went:
- Oyster 🦪 Trio (iced tea, lychee, chili-soy)
- Smoked Fish 🐟 Croquette (green pea/lemon grass)
- Pork Tenderloin (komb, black vinegar radish, chinese miso)
- Beef & Gai-Lan (Canadian prime sirloin, gailan, king-oyster mushroom, black garlic sauce)
- Mapo Foie-Gras (foie-gras, pork belly, smoked tofu, szechuan chili sauce)
- Auntie’s Dessert Tray (pu-er tea jelly, bamboo forest, guardian lion)
- Added extra: Fortune Cookie 🥠 Cake
Our favourite was the Mapo Foi-Gras 💓
🌟The Cons🌟
- There is no a-la-carte option for dinner. Everyone must have the same set meal.
- You are required to pay for the meal when making reservations
- No liquor license
- On a “rougher” part of Granville Street
🌟The Pros🌟
- Menu changes constantly so there is always something new to try
- Attentive service from all the staff
- All dishes were presented well and we loved their dishware (which is available for purchase)
