i wanna try this place for a long time.. heard that the food was great.. & we finally got a chance to try.. it's a small restaurant in a small plaza on Yonge.. the chef is a Chinese (華人炮製意法佳餚)..
we checked their website & saw that the Lobster Bisque is a "special" item.. so we all ordered one.. it's very rich..

we also had two Daily Specials..
(left) Pasta with clam & white wine sauce
(right) Risotto with scallop, saffron

(left) Pizza with Smoked Salmon, Grilled Fennel, Caramelized Onion, Capers & Fontina Cheese..
(right) Blackened Seabass, Ratatouille, Golder Pineapple Emulsion

generally speaking, the food was good.. some of us like the pizza, while some like the pasta/risotto..

but there was one thing..
when the waiter asked us what to drink, we said "water".. then he asked if we want sparkling water or flat water.. we said flat water, thinking that flat water means tap water.. but the waiter brought us a bottle of mineral water, we thought that maybe they don't offer tap water, which is fine.. however, some other customers arrived shortly afterwards & we saw the waiter brought them tap water!!! we were charged $6.95 for one bottle of water!! seemed like we have been fooled.. they didn't let us know about the option of tap water!!

i just browse on the internet & found an article saying that many diners tend to ask their customers for "sparkling or flat", but not "Sparking, flat or tap?".. worth reading it!
