There’s no better way of guaranteeing a steady supply of great seasonal ingredients than owning and running your own farm – and that’s exactly what Chef-Owner John-Vincent Troiano does. His Willowolf Farm produces much of the produce that makes up the tasting menu of this understatedly stylish spot in Thornhill. Together with Chef So Sakata, they produce delicate, uncluttered plates with the occasional intriguing Japanese element, whether milk-fed veal with parsley root, chawanmushi with shiitake, or Ontario trout with seaweed. Dishes arrive at a fairly languid pace, so allow around three hours for dinner. You pay when you book and the price includes a drinks pairing, alcoholic or non, so there are no decisions to make when you get here.
