🇨🇦 Toronto's Most Affordable Foie Gras Experience 🦆✨

🍴 La Palette While searching for foie gras options in Toronto, I suddenly got the strongest craving! After a long day of classes when I was practically starving, I spontaneously visited the nearest French bistro - La Palette - and discovered an absolute gem! 💎 Escargots (MP) 🐌 The classic French appetizer of garlic butter snails. Shelled snails bathed in nutty garlic butter, served with crusty-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside baguette. The perfect start to any French meal! Foie Gras ($35) 🦆🍞 While we call it "foie gras" in Chinese, this restaurant actually uses duck liver. The portion was surprisingly generous - melt-in-your-mouth rich paired perfectly with the toasted bread. The sweet-tart fruit compote and light cream balanced the richness beautifully. The occasional pop of flaky sea salt elevated all the flavors to another level. At this unbelievable price, I would've ordered another if I wasn't already getting full! Duck Confit ($42) 🦆🍝 Perfectly crispy yet fall-off-the-bone tender duck leg. At first glance, the noodles underneath looked like the e-fu noodles used in Cantonese lobster dishes 😂 but they're actually handmade German egg noodles - with a delightful texture between pasta and dumpling dough. Paired with maitake mushrooms and roasted tomatoes, this dish was rich yet balanced, and again - surprisingly generous in portion. Pro Tip: The appetizers change daily based on available ingredients - your server will explain them when you're seated. Even after years in business, this place still fills up quickly during dinner hours - reservations recommended for parties over 2. The service is exceptionally warm and attentive - even when busy, they make sure every table gets proper attention. 👏 📍 492 Queen St W, Toronto, ON M5V 2B2 #TorontoFrenchCuisine #TorontoEats #TorontoLife #FoodieFinds #FrenchCuisine #FoieGras #CanadaEats #FoodPresentation #TorontoRestaurants
