Dinner at Marquis Grill

It's our neighbourhood bar. It's a block away from our place, and yet tonight is our first time here. There are so many exciting options, and I want to try them all! After a lengthy discussion about what to get, we ordered the following.

The Truffle Fries smells fantastic with the truffle, but the parmesan cheese is what made is stand out. This is a great start to dinner.

Truffle Fries
Fried sage, truffle oil, and parmesan

I love pesto, and when I saw the Pesto Tagliatelle, I knew I had to get it. It was delicious. I wish there were a garlic bread that came with it.

basil pesto, blistered tomato, spinach, and shaved parmesan

My colleagues and I were just discussing fried chickens from Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. When I showed him a photo of the giant Taiwanese fried chicken from Big G, he mentioned about it looking like a schnitzel. In the menu of Marquis, there just so happened to be schnitzel.

Chicken Schnitzel
Panko-crusted chicken, green onion mash, braised cabbage, mushroom gravy

The only downside of the schnitzel is the burned Brussel sprouts. Otherwise, it was terrific.
