from January 29 - February 11, 2010.

Have you guys decide where you are going this year?

My bf and I ate at Jump Cafe last year, the gnocchi was amazing! Too bad they don't have it on their menu this year

Where do you guys recommend going?

Let's bounce some suggestions around each other!!

im so sorry >_<

im a bit slow i didnt really understand the info on the site?

so.. you pay once and you eat at certain amount of resturants? or..

[Guest aznkc]

you pay the flat rate for a 3 course menu and price varies by restaurant. dinner is more expensive. book early.

canoe is also recommended

Been to the Drake Hotel, 5th Element, Auberge du Pommier (WHICH WAS AWESOME)

[Guest Tranberry]

I went to Lai Toh Heen last year for Winterlicious. I enjoyed it.

I'm looking forward to trying out a new restaurant this year! I don't have time to browse the list right now but I'll be sure to do it later.

I went to Vagabond last weekend and I really don't recommend it.

First - Bruschette bread

Not too bad

Second - Calamari or verde salad

I had the salad and it wasn't too great. My friends who chose calamari didn't like their's either.

Third - Grilled salmon, smoked salmon fettucine, veal

I had the salmon fettucine and it was not appetizing at all. The salmon was minced to tiny pieces had a very unappealing burnt smell. The only thing that was good was the grilled salmon.

Dessert - Caramel crunch

I really liked it. My friend told me I could've got it at Sobey

[Guest jho]

This year I'm going to:

-5th Elementt

-Auberge du Pommier

-Midi Bistro

-Trevor Kitchen

I'm gonna go broke!!!!! =((

^^ i loved Auberge du Pommier when I went their for summerlicious. You MUST get their cold pea soup for appetizer if it's on the winter menu.

5th Element is apparently good with portions. I went last year for lunch. It was okay, nothing out of the ordinary. So one of those places that is only worth to go once.

I think I'm going to try Far Niente this year. I always pass by it when I walk to Union.

[Guest suki_*]

I went to Far Niente for a post holiday lunch it was good!

i'm going to JUMP cafe and bar today! their menu looks uber good for lunch and i heard the portions are good too.
