She was riding around on her little black plastic motorcycle. Everytime she stopped, she looked at me to see my reaction. I see her expression as one of amusement and expectation. Later at dinner she decided that I was a friend and came to sit on my lap.

Left to Right:
Cucumber, Olive Oil-Poached Tuna, and Olive: Flavor-wise, my favorite, although I generally dislike oil-poached tuna. I had been reading the menu in the days leading up to our dinner (the restaurant changes the menu daily), and this tuna was probably left over from the Olive Oil-Poached Tuna main course offered the night before.
Grilled Turnips, Radishes, and Garlic Scape with Aioli: Loved the grilled turnips and radishes. Way too much aioli (but, I'm not a mayo/aioli type of guy). Garlic scape was too tough and not pleasant to eat, and somehow lost all its punget flavor!
Prosciutto-Wrapped Fresh Fig: A classic combination - too bad the proscuitto was too leathery and the fig too ripe. The fig melted and I was left with a mouthful of salty chewy ham. Nice balsamic reduction on the side. I did notice that all the other diners got just one tiny amuse, we obviously got something special. It put me on edge.

Chilled asparagus soup, milk foam – light top, liquid middle, thicker settled puree bottom (perhaps having stayed too long on the plate before consumption)
Ontario broccoli tartlets, kalibrasi(?) olive – one tart-less substitution for our resident gluten sensitive diner. Thick puree of broccoli topped with a thin sliver of briny olive.
Parmigiano mousse, oven dried tomatoes and margarine – creamy, margarine rich cheesy mousse was reminiscent of pizza flavours topped with a sweet dried grape tomato whose seeds gave both texture and a slightly tart component cutting through the rich dish.

In 1911, Vincenzo Peruggia, a worker at the Louvre, committed the crime of the century by walking out with the Mona Lisa hidden under his coat. Peruggia then spent two years in his Paris apartment alone with the mysteriously smiling woman as his muse. But was he an Italian patriot who believed “La Gioconda” should be returned to her native Italy? Or was he a not-so-common thief seeking his fortune?
Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece has attracted, inspired, and perplexed millions of admirers across generations and continents but what makes the Mona Lisa so special? Was it her theft alone that brought her the world’s attention? Meet Vincenzo and others affected by the smiling lady in this intriguing whydunnit.

Amuse Bouche
Parsnip panna cotta with carrot gelee.
Notes: You know the old (foodie) saying: every fine dining meal begins with a white panna cotta. (I've had cauliflower panna cotta, cocoa butter panna cotta (yes, as a savory course), uni panna cotta, malted sunchoke panna cotta, white pepper panna cotta, cucumber panna cotta, Maytag blue cheese panna cotta, sweet corn panna cotta..., etc.). This, I add parsnip panna cotta.
What I enjoyed about this pairing, is the earthy, natural sweetness of both root vegetables. The panna cotta was very smooth and silky, the gelee was supple and not too firm. The flavors were very clean and simple, not at all muddy.

Amuse Gueule (6 distinct one-bite tasters served on a horseshoe shaped plate):
raw oyster from British Columbia
pickerel dumpling served in a sacue of reduced fish stock, wine, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar sauce
crab salad (daikon strips, lemon juice, mayonnaise and shallots), fresh grated horseradish garnished with Okinawan sea grapes
head cheese with pickled string beans and beets
house-smoked ham on sourdough crostini
a shooter of PEI mussel soup
Deconstructed Spanish "Salmorejo" Served with a glass of squash soup. Notes: The spheres were made of tomatoes, which tasted tinny and fishy. Bad. I really did not liked this. The squash soup, on the other hand, was quite nice, served warm, and with bits of fiber in it.
