Rock Lobster is hilariously bad in a way that I recognized all of the 90s music playing and wondered if they bought their decor at a Hard Rock Cafe closing out auction. Still, one night a group of loosely assembled friends and strangers wandered into one of Toronto's Rock Lobsters for a drink, and I ordered a lobster roll. A mess of cold mayonnaise and colder lobster meat, I was hoping for something more warm and buttery. I can't believe the guest of the evening agreed to come here as she doesn't even like seafood, but maybe she knew that this place wasn't about the seafood.
Le Gourmand's savoury treats are hit and miss. Thinking I had found a solid in the ham and cheese, another go at the simple sandwich made me sick to my stomach. Literally.
And while I will continue to return to Avenue Diner, I am sad to report this toasted tuna on white will not be a repeat order anytime soon. As a side, I ordered the mashed potatoes, which reminded me too much of a hospital cafeteria.
