Not sure why it took me so long to try out Empty Cup, but I'm glad I finally did. They have several…read morelocations throughout the city, and I went to the Academy location which was the closest to me. The fruit loop matcha, to my surprise had no fruit loops in it . Instead, it was matcha latte with syrup at the bottom, which I believe was lavender syrup. It's also topped with their coffee cloud cold foam. Regardless, it was darn good! After doing a bit of research on Google, turns out that the combination of matcha latte and lavender is supposed to resemble the taste of milk that's leftover from a bowl of fruit loops. If you're not feeling like coffee, tea or a latte, they have other drinks available including beer and wine. I thought I was coming into a coffee shop, but they actually had a lot more to offer, including pizza on their menu.

The young man yelled to someone in the back and within minutes I had hot food to go! When I got to my hotel I was stunned at how good the food is. The falafel was impossibly crispy, the pita tasted like they baked specially for me. Even the olive oil had a character that I couldn't describe. This place is a gem.

I really liked this cafe. It's tucked away but when you sit down it's easy to see all the cool…read moresculptures surrounding it. The chai tea was delicious. Perfectly not super sweet but I added a bit more milk and it helped cool it down because it was prepared warm. The Spiced Lentil plus Chickpea soup was kind of buttery and yummy, especially with the addition of the buttery bread that I am not sure about the type. The bread was really smooth and delicious. The large bowl of soup was a bit too big for me but the smaller bowl was the right size. The other food seem tasty too but the menu is not very big. The waitress was polite and she did not mind giving me an extra portion of milk when I asked. I find sculptures intriguing and marvellous. I really enjoyed looking at them. Be aware that they may ask you to put your backpack in a locker if you plan on checking everything out. I do recommend spending your funds here if you love art.

Sandwich and shrimp skewers were fresh and flavourful. The loose leaf herbal tea made a very unique accompaniment to our lunch. We'll be back when back in Winnipeg if we can fit it in.

Went here on a whim because our original dinner plans fell through. I was a tad hesitant as I was…read morenot familiar with the place and hadn't heard much in it's regard. I was so impressed by everything that we ordered that I can definitely see making this a regular spot for a casual lunch/dinner outing. First of all, I am a tea fiend, and the selection of loose teas that they offer here blew me away! I chose one of the fruitier green varieties and was very satisfied. My friend and I each ordered a bowl of soup (broccoli cheddar and chicken gumbo), and split a chicken quesadilla. It was the perfect early dinner. But what is any dinner without... DESSERT! Saucers has a great dessert display case showcasing about ten different dessert options (many celiac-friendly). We opted to share the Tia Maria to finish off the meal, and let me tell you... Best decision of the night. It was absolutely to DIE for; but then again, who doesn't love a dessert consisting of chocolate chip cookies and whipped cream?! Our entire meal for 2 came t just over $38, so definitely a reasonably priced meal, and exceptional value for the quality of food we had. This is a little gem that the world needs to know about. Pass it on.

My friend from Ontario and I dined here tonight, just as the restaurant opened at 5:30 and on a…read moreMonday night, so being not busy, service was exceptional. The food is all very well presented as you'd expect from a higher end restaurant but the real highlight was simply the taste of all we'd eaten. The dumplings, California salad and seafood mix grill were my choices. My friend is a fussy vegetarian - even requesed a few changes to the vegetarian dishes (replace the goat cheese, less pasta/more veggies, etc.) and the chef graciousily accommodated every specification. He wolfed down his salad, 1/2 of my salad and the spagatenni/spicy eggplant, etc. pasta dish he'd ordered. Again, the highlight for both of us was simply that it all tasted great, good portions too (not skimpy, not overwhelming). I haven't been to La Scala in years but will be going back sooner than that in future.
