🇨🇦 Alobar's Must-Try Foie Gras Mousse - Sweet, Salty & Irresistibl
After a long Thursday workday (aka mini Friday!), my friend and I headed to Alobar for a well-deserved treat! This Yorkville gem from the prestigious Alo Food Group never disappoints! 🥂 🏆 About Alo Food Group This culinary empire includes: Alo (Michelin-starred French fine dining) Aloette (modern bistro with American-French fusion) Alder (Mediterranean cuisine in Ace Hotel) Each restaurant brings its own unique charm while maintaining impeccable service and gourmet quality! 🍽️ Our Alobar Experience 🥢 Foie Gras Parfait The star of the meal! The rich foie gras mousse is perfectly balanced with tangy rhubarb compote, crushed pistachios, and fresh melissa leaves 🌿. Served with buttery cookies, we couldn't stop at one serving! 🦞 Nova Scotia Lobster Roll A light and refreshing start to our meal - the lobster was sweet and tender! 🍝 Canestri with Truffle Mushrooms The aromatic black truffle elevated this simple pasta to gourmet heights! 🐟 Grilled Sea Bream Decently cooked but slightly oily - the tomato sauce overpowered the fish's natural flavor 🙈. 🍰 Mille-Feuille Beautiful presentation but a bit dry - still, the cinnamon-spiced layers were enjoyable! 🍾 Wine Pairing We chose the Raventós Blanc de Blanc from Catalonia - crisp and bubbly, perfect for cutting through the richness! 🫧 💡 Dining Insights ✅ Elegant dark interior with hotel-quality amenities (Le Labo toiletries!) ✅ Attentive service (though plates cleared a bit too quickly 🫡) ✅ Perfect for special occasions - romantic dinner or business lunch 📍 Location: 162 Cumberland St, Toronto (Yorkville) Reservations recommended - this place gets busy! 📅 #TorontoFineDining #FoieGrasHeaven #AlobarReview #FrenchCuisine #TorontoFoodie #LuxuryDining #WeekendBrunch #FoodieAdventures
