39Bymark

Masters of the universe frequent the impeccable Bymark restaurant for its unfussy luxe, the service that says that you really matter and a menu based on the best ingredients flown in from the four corners of the globe. Bymark is also where the thousand dollar suits go to kick back after work, for the bar is an elegance of stone and wood. After a few $15 to $17 cocktails, they own the world, and a $35 Bymark burger in the bar goes down like a bear market on the run. Eight ounces of US prime garnished with ultra crisp onion rings and unimpeachable French brie, it makes those 80-hour work weeks feel worth it. As does the ridiculously delicious $27 grilled cheese sandwich with lobster, pancetta and more of that upmarket French brie. But the most fun at the Bymark bar (other than pretending you’re richer than you think) is the $27 poutine — perfect fries with juicy sweet butter-braised lobster and fabulous bearnaise sauce strong with tarragon scent.
