Restaurant Review

As Today was my Birthday, my Roommate (Best Friend, and fellow Frenchman) took me to a Restaurant by the name of "Bumpkins". In one word "WOW" what a place! Bumpkins is a Classical French Restaurant set in a beautiful old building in Downtown Toronto. The interior is describable as a Russian tea room complete with 2 very large chandeliers overlooking the dining area. The color of the dining area is beige with gold accents and murals covering the walls. The Staff are very courteous, provide individualized service and make you feel as if you have been there a thousand times. The food is fantastic! The menu is large and offers a variety of fare. There are even options for vegetarians. The wine list is adequate and suggestions are made for menu items. If you are diet conscious, look elsewhere as the food is rich with flavour as well as plenty of calories. This is French cuisine people at its finest. The flavours of the food seemed to play in my mouth like a symphony as I would close my eyes and savour every bite. The desserts are very decadent and the portion sizes very decent. In closing, make reservations and bring your appetite "Bumpkins" will satisfy you in every way.
