It was clear this guy had developed a crippling dependence on the butter chicken poutine: he'd eaten it three times in three days, and was picking up a second helping to go when we met him.
Despite the rave review, we didn't get the butter chicken poutine. We ate in, and had veggie pakoras with mint sauce, followed by lamb rogan josh with butter naan and coconut rice.

Read moreI had an absolutely outstanding dining experience at Saffron House, the Indian & Indo-Chinese restaurant in the heart of downtown. The attentive and extremely pleasant waitstaff made it feel like each table was their top priority, even during the bustling evening rush. Their speed and attention to detail were impeccable.
The high-end atmosphere set the perfect tone for the evening, and the special of the night exceeded all expectations. The supper special included an appetizer, a main course, rice, a dessert, and a drink. Every bite was bursting with incredible flavors, leaving me thoroughly impressed.
The Pakora was a work of perfection, crisped just right, and the sauce complemented it exquisitely. The Chicken Masala had just the right amount of spice, making it a delight without overwhelming heat. To top it all off, the dessert was the ideal finish to an incredible culinary journey.
I'd give both the food and service a solid 5 stars. Saffron House truly delivers an unforgettable...
