DaNico in Canada | Another new Michelin-starred restaurant has opened! ๐ŸŽ‰

Iโ€™ve been keeping an eye on this place since spring, and I made sure to visit on opening day. To my surprise, we were actually the first table of guests after they officially opened! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ This new spot is run by the chef of Don Alfonso 1890 in Toronto, and itโ€™s named after him. Overall, from the location and decor to the menu and pricing, itโ€™s quite similar to the old restaurant, with the main difference being that the old place had a white-themed decor. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ The menu still offers two tiers: $225/$150 per person, with the option for wine pairing at $200/$120 per person. ๐Ÿทโœจ APERITIVO: Oysters, tuna, caviar, and Wagyu tartare, plus one more item that I couldnโ€™t quite identify. ๐Ÿฆช๐ŸŸ GRANCHIO AL GUSTO MEDITERRANEO: The king crab legs were rich in flavor. The sweetness of the crab combined with the tangy fruit chunks, and the crispy, airy texture was delightful. ๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿ‘ ANATRA ALL ARANCIA: The duck breast was tasty, but only one slice felt a bit stingy. I could have used more! ๐Ÿ˜‹ The foie gras was rich but not overwhelming. ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ TORTELLINI Dโ€˜AGNELLO E ANGUILLA AFFUMICATA: These tortellini were noteworthy! The lamb flavor was robust, and the balance of sweet, salty, and minty notes was perfect. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฟ MERLUZZO NERO, VERMOUTH E CAVIALE: Iโ€™m not a fan of black cod, but this dish was on point with the fish's tenderness and seasoning. ๐ŸŸ๐Ÿ‘Œ IL MANZO: I wonโ€™t comment much here. Most places in Toronto serving Wagyu donโ€™t impress me, but this one has never let me down. The charred texture was interesting, though the accompanying shishito peppers and potato terrine were rather average. ๐Ÿฅฉ๐Ÿ”ฅ BOSCO DELLE FRAGOLE: My favorite dessert, panna cotta!!! I can't have Italian food without it. ๐Ÿฎโค๏ธ COCCOLE FINALI: Standard petit fours, though now there are three instead of the usual one.
