Toque has a reputation of excellence in its exquisite culinary art. It was certainly elegant posh dinner – we realized a dinner at Toque was way too expensive for us right after the check arrived to our table!! Yet a phenomenal restaurant, we believe, though my boyfriend loved Joebeef much more haha.
What we had here was ( click any picture for bigger image ) :
Fresh oyster with soy jelly and cucumber
Fresh foamy corn mousse with coarse salt on top
Sea urchin cream with watermelon water on top of a mixture of oyster, radish, soy sauce, and wild ginger
Fresh crab meat on edamame beans with slightly cooked egg, grissini bread, salmon roe, Parmesan
