🇨🇦 Toronto's Wildest Dining Experience: Antler Game Restaurant 🦌🍽️
📍 Antler 1454 Dundas St W, Toronto Step into chef Michael Hunter's wilderness-to-table vision at this one-of-a-kind game meat haven! Growing up hunting, Hunter transforms his outdoor expertise into bold, nature-inspired dishes featuring everything from moose and bison to wild boar and even squirrel! 🍖 Chef's Table Tasting Menu Highlights ($145pp): • Seared Foie Gras: Sadly overcooked (burnt bitterness overshadowed the richness), but staff graciously replaced it - service win! • Pan Seared Duck Breast: Perfectly tender with wild-game nuance, elevated by tart cherry jam & roasted beets • Pan Roasted Venison Rack (medium rare): The star dish! Unbelievably juicy & mild - no "gamey" funk, just pure deliciousness • Wild Boar Cavatelli: Rich pasta with shredded boar & cheese (tastes like pork++), though the heavy sauce gets cloying 🍷 Skip the Wine Pairing ($75pp): Felt rushed and uninspired - not worth the splurge! 🌟 Why It's Special: Rare proteins you won't find elsewhere Chef's respect for wild ingredients shines That venison rack will convert game-meat skeptics #TorontoEats #GameMeat #UniqueDining #DundasWest #FoodAdventure
