I visited Nota Bene restaurant recently to try what some foodie friends have advised is the "best brisket sandwich in the city."

We began with appetizer crostini: savoury Tamworth pig lardo and rosemary. The earthy taste combined with the silken texture of the lardo on the crunchy crostini was an addictive experience.

The recipe I use is actually not mine, but my wife Roxanne’s. She picked it up years ago from her sister Francine, a very good cook who makes her tomato sauce the right way.

There are only a handful of respectable restaurants in this city that turn out a decent brunch the whole fam-damily can savour in an environment that kids easily bust a move in and that parents appreciate for its design and decor.
