    Seasoned Fusion Tastes - Shanghai noodles

    Mr C ordered the Shanghai Noodles which has both chicken and shrimp (and it's not the small dinky…read moresized ones!) and it was absolutely scrumptious! Highly recommend adding some chili oil to level it up For myself, I ordered the Lemongrass Chicken which comes with an egg , side of carrots and lettuce and 2 spring rolls Once my food arrived, I immediately noticed the green onion and onion smell (not a fan) but I also noticed the delectable aroma of the lemongrass chicken So, I did what I usually do and scraped off the bits of green onion from the rice and proceeded to eat my meal! Rice, chicken and egg were The rice was cooked just the way I liked and lemongrass chicken were so flavourful! The egg was surprising as I expected over-hard but it was more over-medium so it a even better I tried to overcome the onion scent/flavour from the spring rolls but after eating two (delicious) pieces, I decided I really can't anymore so Mr C got lucky and ate the rest for me (along with the lettuce/carrots hehe).

    I ordered the spring roll and laksa. I enjoyed the laksa. It had great flavor and tons of shrimps…read moreand scallops. The laksa broth was delicious. Only complaint was the heat level. My server told me the locals (ahem...Canadians) can't handle the spice. I didn't enjoy the spring roll as much as I should be. It's was served slightly warm and with the peanut dipping sauce. The sauce was different. I don't know what they use but I swore it tasted like there's hoisin.

    As it can reveal itself somewhat gradually, La Cucina is yours to uncover. The heavier design of…read moredark wood tables and black leather chairs framed by brick walls are nicely balanced by candles throughout and the lighting sparkle repeating in mirrors. We started with well-executed cocktails and perfect calamari paired with artichoke hearts that began to expose the thoughtfulness of the kitchen. The Linguine Alla Pescatora was perfectly portioned and delicious and my wife left no noodle behind either. We were fully stuffed, but couldn't resist ordering ricotta doughnuts to take back to the hotel. They could likely run a food truck with those doughnuts alone. Traditional Italian fare is not uncommon. Getting it right however is much more rare and La Cucina is ready for show. All of this would be enough but the remaining layers are the wonderful people operating this somewhat new offering to the city. Don is attentive, fun and intelligent, giving you his full attention while still noticing the subtle beckons of nearby tables. He's a fly fisherman who feels life deeply and has great care for all. Then we met Norma who opened the restaurant with her brother. Given the opportunity, I think Norma could run a country. She has managed a variety of businesses, is huge fun and I'm willing to bet she's as strong as the stone wall out front. La Cucina is Italian authenticity pressed by a big heart into a beautiful small space.

    My mother in law made a reservation here last night. I haven't been, and I didn't know it was a…read morepretty, date-night, cool little place-- we brought my two toddlers, ages 4 and 2. Ambiance: What started out as quiet and intimate around 6:30pm became somewhat lively (a good kind) around 8:00pm. I loved the vibe. Dark, candle-lit tables, bricked wall, bar all the way in the back and cute and clean little bathrooms downstairs. Tight cubicles if you are to pee with a child but it's ok. No change-table if you are to bring a newborn. Service: Tony, our server was excellent. He was very pleasant and kind and told us we're awesome for taking our kids to dine with us because not a lot do. He also praised us for having very well behaved toddlers! The hostess did too, which i loved. She said no one would even be able to tell there were children in the restaurant. Food: Sadly, this is where I took my 3 stars off. We were all craving for pasta, so I could only speak from the pasta perspective. Prices ranged from Mid to High $20s which for the portion size was pretty steep. Taste-wise, here's the breakdown. *Bolognese: serving super small, and sauce very salty. *Crab Tortellini: i got this, serving portion was decent on this one since tortellinis are a bit heavier by the piece. The filling of crab was basic. Not sure if they use fresh Dungeness to create the filling, it sadly didn't taste as expected. However, i did like the subtle buttery sauce and the accent of fried basil to garnish. *Carbonara: bland and could be a bit creamier with the right egg yolk ratio. My father in law says the pasta was undercooked. *Ravioli: my kids had this to share. Pasta square to ratio filling was off. It could use more filling. Ravioli pillows were tiny. *Cannelloni: excellent. This was yummy. We got meatballs and bread for appetizer. Bread isn't part of dining. Never been to an Italian restaurant that does NOT serve complimentary focaccia or baguette. Also, i noticed that they don't come around the tables to offer fresh parmesan or freshly ground pepper. Because of the service and vibe of the place though, I'd give it another shot and try the variety of meats. I got a glimpse of ribeye from the other table and it looked amazing.
