Restaurant L’Assiette’s chefs Dominic and Mohamed craft elegant selections for a brunch buffet and tasting menu of gourmet French recipes. At brunch, patrons pile their plates with an ever-changing selection of buffet options such as eggs benedict, bacon, fresh fruit, croissants, and muffins baked in the shape of Napoleon’s bicorne. At dinner, tongues follow a steaming soup of the day with a round of basic Pilates before tackling appetizers such as foie gras poutine or brie flambée. For the main course, rack of lamb struts from the kitchen wearing a cloak of garlic-herb sauce, and salmon swathed in dill and white wine sauce swan dives into waiting mouths. Diners sway to the mixture of modern and classic tunes from pianist Yvon Farmer on Friday and Saturday nights, and Restaurant L’Assiette can procure limousine service for parties of up to eight people upon advance request.

About Restaurant L'Assiette
Chefs Dominic and Mohamed draw their culinary inspiration from the Old World, crafting a menu of predominantly French cuisine with occasional Italian influences. Garlic-cream sauce lends a flavourful richness to orders of escargot, and tender filet mignon emerges from the kitchen decorated with sauce aux poivres and a latticework of freshly tattooed grill marks. The chefs embrace Mediterranean flavours by baking rustic pizzas and glazing penne and linguini pasta with bolognese or carbonara sauces. On Friday and Saturday evening, the dining room echoes with the live piano performances of Yvon Farmer, who effortlessly transitions between iconic standards and contemporary compositions.
