BRAVO Restaurant
The owners of the newly opened Bravo Restaurant and Lounge on Yale Road say their vision from the start was to create a fun and relaxed room that would stand up in any big city.
The food focus here is high-quality dishes at reasonable prices.
"The menu is West Coast Continental but our spin is highly evolved comfort food," says Mr. du Plessis.
"We've connected with a local organic farmer and we're searching out the best local produce."
The menu runs the gamut from thin-crust pizzas, and salmon in nori, to Szechuan rack of lamb. The most popular dish so far is the Bravo Taster plate with a selection of their cuisine.
They are very interested in fine wines."
Unique cocktails are his specialty and he makes his own flavourful vodka infusions for knockout martinis.
The casual atmosphere of the room encourages lots of interaction between customers, say the restaurateurs.
The hand-painted mosaic on the floors is becoming a real conversation-starter.
The antique black bar, ultra-suede booths, pineapple fountain and crystal chandeliers create a classy air of sophistication.
Chocolate-coloured chairs and leather barstools, richly textured privacy curtains and hand-made lampshades also add to the newly-renovated flair of the former Mexican restaurant.
Decorative tiles by Sid Dickens make a strong statement on one wall and some original artwork by Mr. King is also featured.

Capital Restaurant
There are not a lot of Chinese restaurants in town but Capital Restaurant is on of my favorite. It is located at 45766 Kipp Avenue in the downtown core. They offer takeout but do not deliver.
