DT’s Hottest Asian Fusion Spot—But Is It Worth the Hype?! 🍽️🔥
DaiLo 📍503 College St, Toronto, ON M6G 1A5, Canada 💰 $90+ per person | Reservations are a MUST❗❗❗ (This place is always packed—walk-ins rarely get lucky!) This spot is crazy popular with the Western crowd—more of a trendy bistro-meets-bar vibe, perfect for sipping cocktails and long chats. The ambiance? Chef’s kiss 👌—dim lighting, cozy nooks, great for dates or birthday celebrations! But let’s talk food… Honestly? One visit was enough for me. The flavors didn’t fully win me over, and the price tag? Oof. Not sure I’d rush back, but here’s the breakdown: 🍖 Vietnamese Phaux Beef Carpaccio ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Think Vietnamese pho flavors but in a carpaccio form—thinly sliced beef with all the classic herbs and spices. If you love Viet cuisine, this one’s a solid pick! 🐟 Whole Fried Giggie Trout ⭐⭐⭐ The presentation? Dramatic. The whole fish is fried, head and bones twisted into a wild sculpture. Taste-wise? Very fusion—kinda intriguing, kinda confusing? Not bad, but not a must-order. 🍚 Truffle Fried Rice ⭐⭐⭐ Rich, fragrant, and packed with umami—definitely tasty, but for the price? I expected more wow factor. Final Verdict: Good for vibes, not for value. If you’re curious, go once—but maybe split dishes to save some cash! 💸 Hot Take: Would you pay $90+ for fusion food?
