Last year after Die Walkure, I had the pleasure of taking Brunnhilde to
brunch, and this year we returned to Origin(www.origintoronto.com) as we loved it so much, and were
joined by her father, the Wanderer or Wotan in this year's Siegfried. I
remembered the brunch special drink called TBD(the brunch drink;to be
determined) which was Sangria which I passed on for a margarita with a
chili-salt rim hoping the heat would warm me up from the 20degree temps.
Our goddess chose the Palominosa with ru by red grapefruit juice, tequila
and prosecco which I would have had were it not for the statins.
We shared a plate of yummy Deviled Eggs with Souffletine(crispy puffed
rice), herbs and smoked bacon which were delish (but not as good as the ones
back home at Dino's)
Both gods chose the Fried Rice(crispy)& Pork Belly & Crispy Eggs
with Ginger, soy and chilies. The food had great spice and flavor as did my
Short Rib Hash with Béarnaise, Jus of rich marrow(it had to be reduced for
days), Poached Egg & Buttermilk Onion Rings....can't resist onion
rings.
Our server Lance was super and even though it took a time for the food to
come we were having an awesome time chatting..so it did not matter.
Brunnhilde plans to return there again...so keep your eyes open for a
god-spotting.
