Engagement Dinner at the Chef's Table, Brasserie Beck

Saturday night was Jen and Dave's engagement dinner. KK booked the Chef's Table -- five courses paired with wine and/or beer. Or orange juice if your name's Elaine.

In a word -- excellent.

Our chef was Brian K, the executive sous, and he did a marvellous job.

grouper over a potato rillette, duck breast, cheese selection, a delicious dessert (banana mousse inside a swiss roll) -- they gave us a vegetarian option too for one of the guests.

It isn't a cheap evening out, but it's worth it. The food was well above what we expected (given that we didn't think much of the cuisine on the regular menu) and the service was good.

We enjoyed it far more than the Tasting Table at Restaurant Eve.

Highly recommended for a treat!
