I've been craving a grilled cheese sandwich for ages! My friend, Deb, inroduced me to SALT Tasting Room in Gastown a few years ago and I've been a couple of times since. Everytime I go there I feel this sense of apprehension seeing as this restaurant is in the ominously-named Blood Alley in a dodgy part of Gastown. It's quite difficult to get to and it's imperaive to hold your breath so you don't breathe in the urine stench but as soon as you get into the restaurant, it's a totally different atmosphere.
The grilled cheese sandwich, buttersquash soup and arugula salad did not disappoint Farrah, "Baba" and I. The foie gras was just okay.
Ive never been to this place and totally need to check it out, especially with my love of everything cheese! Next time you visit, Id love to join you!
